The question from subject is: is it possible to open a pdf directly in the

It must always be downloaded, but I guess you mean you don't want to see the "File Save As" dialog. For security reasons, DW sends application mime types as attachments, browsers tend to put up "File Save As" windows for attachments. Check out the splitbrain blog for details on how to use an "inline" PDF for a scripting attack.
