millipedia Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 In the past when a client has asked us to show PDFs in the browser rather than being downloaded we've used Mozilla PDF.js and then created a link that passes the doc name in the form pdfjs/web/viewer.html?file=whatever.pdf In this day and age though I'd question whether this is really necessary. Most browsers have built in pdf viewers anyway : https://caniuse.com/pdf-viewer and if you're overriding the users choice as to which pdf viewer they use then it's probably not great for usability. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matjazp Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Any recommendation for viewing Office (word, excel) files? Locally, not uploading the file to some service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragan Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Try browser extensions? e.g. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/office-editing-for-docs-s/gbkeegbaiigmenfmjfclcdgdpimamgkj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillH Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 PDFObject is useful for making the most of browsers' PDF capabilities and for setting up fallbacks – particularly for mobile browsers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
