Hi,
I would like to ask a question on viewer’s browser add-in.
I found that although opened PDF files embedded in browser can be saved, the viewer doesn’t allow “Open File”. Is there a way to solve it?

You can use the browser's open file command and enter *.pdf as the file pattern to filter only PDF files.

I tried it; but not in the same windows (it will open a new window)?

Hi bob_sun,
The addin is called when a web page sends a document with the mime type application/pdf. Really what you should be doing here is using the stand alone PDF viewer. Why do you want to open PDF documents in a web browser?

Paul,
I will use stand-alone instances.

Hi Bob,
I think that's the best solution, this is what the Viewer was designed to do.
let us know if you have any further question.

Thanks Bob.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.
