Hi Robert,
You tried to "View document" from your localhost, right?
Thanks

I know what it is :) Geoblocking in Firewall. Thanks and sorry for trouble.

edit: after disabling a geoblocking its opening a source of index.php file instead of pdf :( (or xls or any other file) filename is always "download" or "index.php" depends on joomla's sef settings.
regards,
robert.

Check this,
I compared edocman's demo site and my own, and I see differences in url.
I've tried many different settings but result is always the same...

Hi Robert,
The Google viewer can't work on localhost because Google can't recognize your local server. Please upload your site into live server to check the problem.
Thanks

For the others:

Google docs viewer is working but files must have permissions for public, and check your firewall settings (geoblocking etc)

Hi Edward,
The Google Viewer will only work well in case your documents have download permission are: Public, it means everyone can download the document.
Thanks
