If you post the link in a message, clicking on it opens file in pdf reader.

That's only true if the browser has an embedded PDF reader in it or if the embedded PDF reader is enabled. I actually don't like embedded PDF readers, so I have the plugin disabled on my browser and both links are interpreted as a download.
