We have a prerelease API to hide buttons in the PDF view. You can see it in the CoreWebView2Settings.HiddenPdfToolbarItems documentation.

this.webview2.CoreWebView2.Settings.HiddenPdfToolbarItems = 
    CoreWebView2PdfToolbarItems.Save | 
    CoreWebView2PdfToolbarItems.SaveAs | 
    CoreWebView2PdfToolbarItems.Print;
