what version of selenium are you using? This used to work with selenium 3+ but w/ selenium 4+ .. same code doesn't work for setting custom downloads directory

What if theres no pdf but it shows a print window

[BlowFlow]

There's any way doing it as --heardless option?

And when you open a new tab with selenium, is it possible to download the PDF automatically? Because when I click the Download button, a tab opens with the PDF already open and I want to download it automatically. Help me please!
