DSPACE 7 PDF VIEWER

[Giang Trịnh]

Hello Every One,

I have configured Dspace 7 success, and now I see dspace 7 are displaying pdf file with small size, it can not display pdf file with big size, about the big size file I have to download this file to my computer.

Are there anyone can give me some advice to display pdf file with dspace 7.

Thank you very much.

Regards

Just to verify, DSpace 7 does not have an out-of-the-box PDF viewer at this time.  So, similar to other files, it simply sends the PDF file to your browser to let your browser (and computer) decide how to display it.

That said, if anyone finds a PDF viewer that they are able to integrate into DSpace, we always appreciate code/improvements/enhancements donated back to the project.  One option might be to look at integrating an Angular PDF viewer like https://www.npmjs.com/package/ng2-pdfjs-viewer (I don't have any attachment to this particular PDF viewer, and I don't know how hard it'd be to integrate).

In any case, if anyone is interested, send us a PR!  See our Code Contribution Guidelines for more details on what we look for in donated code: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/Code+Contribution+Guidelines
