I have a Firefox extension and in some cases when a user navigates to a PDF I'd like to save a copy of the file.

A...

Am supposed to be learning French at the moment, but rather than learning any vocab, I've been mucking around with a rails app that tests vocab - so it displays a word, and I have to type its translation.
