I think this may have been covered before, but I can?t find it in the
archives.
Is there a standard as to whether a PDF link should open in the same
browser window or a new browser window?
I know I have my own personal preference, but others in my group have the
opposite preference. In an informal test of many sites on the web, I can?t
determine that one method has prevalence over the other.
Have any studies been conducted? What is your personal preference, and for
what reason(s)?
