PDFs in Chromium

About a month ago I switched to Ubuntu (as some of you might know) and have been using Chromium as my main browser. However, I noticed that in Chrome (the traditional Windows version) PDFs will be viewable in the browser whereas in Chromium I have to download said PDF in order to view it. Is there a plugin or something that can be installed to make PDFs open in-browser or this the way it is?

 

 

Thanks for your replies!

A doubt. Can chromium be used in windows? If yes, why is there no difference between GC and chromium?

Chromium is basically a Linux build of Chrome, it can't be run in Windows.
