title: Any idea how to make Google Chrome render a PDF when it's URL contains non-utf8 and non-ascii (but url-encoded) chars?
body: <p>Google Chrome seems to have Problems in rendering a PDF file, if the URL to that file contains non-ascii and non-utf8 url-encoded chars.</p>
  
  <p>This is reproducible in a very simple way: </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Take any http-url to a PDF file.</li>
  <li>Just add the url-parameter string '?a=%F6' to the given url ('%F6' is the url-encoded value of the german umlaut 'ö' in win-1252 codepage)</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Chrome will not render the PDF file.</p>
  
  <p>If you add an utf8 string that is url-endcoded it'll work: e.g: '?a=%C3%B6'</p>
  
  <p>This is confirmed with newest Google Chrome and Chromium (45.0) versions on Windows and Linux.</p>
  
  <p>I read this <a href="http://blog.lunatech.com/2009/02/03/what-every-web-developer-must-know-about-url-encoding" rel="nofollow">blog</a>, but didn't find a hint that non-utf8 encodings wouldn't work.</p>
  
  <p>If i disable the 'PDF viewer Plugin' (in about:plugins) then the PDF is getting downloaded at least.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas about this?</p>
