I've resolved the problem that link to file saved in dropbox was open in native mode in browser.
You can resolve in this manner:
Most modern web browsers can automatically detect , open and operate in different ways several file types. For example, clicking on a link to an image in a browser , usually opens the image in the same browser rather than downloading to your desktop. The extensions (or plug- in) browser can then add functionality to the management of other types of files to the browser.
To skip the preview page and allow your browser to manage files , replace wwwcon dl dropbox with dropboxusercontent URL.
For example :
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xttkmuvu7hh72vu/MyFile.pdf
Become a :
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/xttkmuvu7hh72vu/MyFile.pdf
Force download of a file or folder
Using the new direct link above, you can further modify the URL to force the browser to download the file, rather than handle it natively. To force the download of a file , add ? Dl = 1 to the end of a direct link.
For example :
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/xttkmuvu7hh72vu/MyFile.pdf
Become
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/xttkmuvu7hh72vu/MyFile.pdf?dl=1
That's all!
