Authentication

Post by naseem »

Hello
We are using PDF-xChange Editor in browser and using RunJavaScript to interact with pdf document. Everything works fine if the windows logged in user is same as the website logged in user (website uses NTLM authentication). The problem is that the pdf-xchange always uses windows login to authenticate and if the website login is different it fails because the windows login might not have access to the site.
Is there a way that PDF-xChange can use the credential used in browser?

Thanks

Hello Naseem,

You have posted in the Viewer SDK forum, but are speaking of the Editor. I assume you are actually using the ViewerAX, but can you please confirm that?

Regards,
Stefan

Hello Naseem,

Are you sure? Such an SDK is not yet publicly available, so how did you manage to get an Editor AX component for use?
May you send us a screenshot of our component opened in browser and a snippet of the code you are using to execite the JS inside the PDF document?

Regards,
Stefan

I confirmed with another developer who wrote the code that it's just PDF-xChange AX (ViewerAX). It's difficult to paste the code here as it is further wrapped inside managed custom control. Appreciate your help. Thanks.

Hi naseem

is this at your end? If you can copy it to a text file and upload in a zip archive that is helpful, or are you saying you cannot easily access the code to send?
Best regards
