Document Viewer for PDF files
« on: February 05, 2009, 09:44:33 pm »
It would be sweet to have a document open up in frame instead of having to download it.

We are using a lot of PDF files that we need just little bits of info from and it isn't worth the time to download them. Some can be quite large and I would rather spend the CPU time to convert them to HTML then the bandwidth to download them.

Thoughts??

Yes, we've been requested this before. I think opening it on a new window would be quicker to implement for the moment. Maybe I can squeeze it into 1.3.

On the other side of this... maybe down the road turning docs created in OG to PDF could be an option?

Check out the free scripts here... the developer seems to allow others to use the code
