The Edocman developer team are proud to announce the release of Edocman 1.19.5. This is a first sixth for the 1.19.x series of Edocman with the launch of the plugin - Edocman PDF Viewer
The plugin PDF Viewer size is about 1.68 MB, so that, we don't include it in Edocman Package Installation, when you download
edocman_unzip_first.zip from us to desktop and extract it, you will see file:
plug_edocman_pdfviewer.zip, you can install it through Joomla Installation manager tool. After installing it, please publish the plugin at Backend -> Extensions -> Plugins
Then, at frontend, the PDF file will be opened directly through Edocman layout instead of through browsers or Google Viewer. An outstanding advantage of this plugin is that when users don't have the permission to download documents, they can only view the content of the PDF file through PDF Viewer while the Download function is disabled.
NOTE: In case the Document View layout shows error:
404 Not found, you can follow below steps to solve the issue.
1. Using Notepad to open file:
.htaccess and
.htaccess.admintools (if exists)
2. Add this line of those files:
3. Save those files and test the PDF Document view function again
4. In case the PDF files can be viewed, you should unpublish the plugin
Edocman PDF Viewer and using different Document view options of Edocman
Please upgrade Edocman 1.19.5 to get this great plugin for using
