[xwiki-users] How to use PDF viewer macro
Hi all, I'm using xwiki enterprise 8.4.4. I've installed the PDF view macro <http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/PDF+Viewer+Macro>extension (it appears as "installed" in the extensions manager). How do I now view a PDF using it? See the attached screenshot. When I click on the PDF, the file is downloaded locally. How can I view the PDF in the browser? Oliver

Indeed, the PDF Viewer Macro documentation doesn't give any usage example.. In general, wiki rendering macros are supposed to be used from the content of a wiki page. So you have to edit a wiki page and insert the macro from the CKEditor toolbar (see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Extension/CKEditor+Integratio... ). Hope this helps, Marius

Hi everybody - I have got a question about the PDF-Viewer Macro too - am I able to use an URI from a document, shared from a windows file server? If yes - is there any special syntax like ////fileserver//path//to//the/document.pdf Thanks, Tobias
