I use the Firefox add-on Web2PDF Converter ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/14979/ ). From a toolbar button, when clicked, you are given the options to “Download PDF File”, “View In Google Docs” and “Store And Share PDF Online”. The store and share option opens the document in “FileJumbo” where you get a choice to download URL or delete URL. According to FileJumbo you do not need to, but can, create a (free) account to keep your documents together.
