Hello guys,

can someone help me to solve [this old “issue”](https://meta.discourse.org/t/howto-open-pdf-files-in-same-browser-window/25823), by explaining me where I can find and edit the nginx config? I found some snippet, that could help me:

It would be nice to view the pdf file inside browser window itself. I guess, it must look like this …

` application/pdf pdf;`

```
location ~ \.pdf$ {
  add_header Content-Disposition "inline";
}

```

What would be the most elegant way to realise this?

Thanks in advance!
