Hi,
If I view our Application under MacOS with Safari the integrated PdfViewer doesn´t show the buttonbar for print and save the pdf.
What is the reason of that behavior? If I user firefox under MacOS the buttons are shown.
Thanks
Dirk
Hi Dirk,
I forgot to mention that you can’t use the viewers (other than “auto”) from localhost.
The application must be deployed to a publicly-accessible URL.
The PdfViewer, when set to Google or Mozilla, registers a callback URL that asks the Wisej application for the given PDF document (but this can’t be accessed when running from localhost).
This is an example of how it works:
Google
https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=https://wisej.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Wisej-datasheet-10012020.pdf
Mozilla
https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/web/viewer.html?file=https://wisej.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Wisej-datasheet-10012020.pdf
HTH,

Hi Levie,
I had test it before my message. Google doesn´t work under Windows (Firefox, Edge) and Mac (Safari), message “no preview available”. Mozilla doesn´t work under Safari (Buttonbar is visible, PDF is not shown). The question is: Is it a browser specific behavior or a problem of WiseJ Pdf Viewer? We will not use a custom one but we have user with Mac…
Thanks
Dirk
Hi Dirk,
The PDFViewer control uses the built-in viewer for the given browser.

You can change it to a specific viewer or provide your own custom one (i.e. PDF.js). See the above link.
HTH,
