PDF Preview - Thin Client

PDF Preview - Thin Client

It could be great to have a way to see the pdf before having to download it on the Thin Client.

Like a preview for the pdf.

Are you asking for it to open in the browser or a thumbnail image of the first page?

I’m asking a same preview as old Autodesk DM web access.

When I click in the PDF icon, it’s opening it in a new tab. And not downloading it in our “Download” document in Windows.

 

to avoid this all the time if it's not the good pdf :

I agree, it would be great to have the pdf opening directly in the browser instead of downloading it (of course you need to have the pdf reader addin in your browser if you want this function to work).

Also need this for the Office and ZIP files.  Users should not have to download the file (nor do I want them to be able to) to view a Word, Excel or Powerpoint file.  You should be able to preview ALL the file types directly in the browser that are supported for viewing in the thick client.

Hi Autodesk,  can you  confirm that this is in 2016 and 2017?  I've tried and can seem to see this working at all?

I have verified that in Vault 2016 and 2017 this is working.  Make sure that you have Adobe Reader installed so that the Adobe Reader browser extension is installed in your browser.
