How to display a PDF via Android web browser without “downloading” first

You can open a file PDF in Google Docs Viewer by appending the URL to:

https://docs.google.com/gview?embedded=true&url=<URL of a supported doc>

This would open a PDF file in the default browser or a WebView.

A list of supported formats is given here.
