Thought I’d ask about GST download.

I work from an iPad and I’m unsure what happens if I decide to tap on the GST
download option on an order.

Where does it go ?

Does it require a printer at this stage which I don’t have or is it held somewhere
?

FWIW, I think the link on the order page is a link to a PDF file, the same as
the one you receive by e-mail.

What your browser/machine does with it afterward may vary, depending on settings
and their defaults.
Some ask what you want to do, at least the first time you try to download a PDF.
Some directly open the PDF to read it, either in the browser or by opening an
external PDF reader.  The PDF file itself is saved in a temporary location. 
You can generally save the file you're reading in the location of your choice.
I don't know what's the default behaviour for iPads.

In any case, clicking on the link wouldn't make it (or the document) disappear

That means you could try to click on it and see what happens.  Especially now
you have a copy in your e-mail

I can confirm that clicking on the receipt downloads it/brings you to the pdf
page to download it
