How to load a PDF document from URL into PDF Viewer from client-side
PDF viewer do not have support to load the PDF document from the URL directly. However, you can load the PDF document by converting the URL to base64 string using the client-side load() API in the sample level.
Refer to the following code snippet.
var staticUrl = 'http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/general/pd/HTTP_Succinctly-1719682472'; var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhr.open('GET', staticUrl, true); xhr.responseType = 'blob'; xhr.onload = function(e) { if (this.status == 200) { var myBlob = this.response; var reader = new window.FileReader(); //read the blob data reader.readAsDataURL(myBlob); reader.onloadend = function () { base64data = reader.result; var pdfviewerObject = $('#PdfViewer').data('ejPdfViewer'); //load the base64 string pdfviewerObject.load(base64data); } } }; xhr.send();
