Hi David, 

Which control can I use to open a pdf file and show the content on screen? 

Thanks in advance. 


Thank you.

Hello Danny,

We can use an IFrame control like you can see in the "PDFViewer" app sample. We use here our own PDF viewer (the Mozilla PDF viewer). We can also use that viewer in order to shown the PDF using the "OpenWindow" action. Another possibility is to use the "OpenWindow" action without any viewer, but the system may have no viewers. Can be another possibilities like download the PDF file and open it, using the system default viewer. Depending the target platforms we can use one or another approach.
