How do I immediately open a document in the PDF viewer from a menu entry without going through Document Details?

Hi,
We can use external url for document view function. The format of link is:
http://[your_do_main]/index.php?option=com_edocman&task=document.viewdoc&id=[DOCUMENT_ID]
Thanks

Hi,  I tried this but I get every time 404 error, page not found.

Tried many different formats, all fail.  Tried HTTPS, HTTP,  with and without &id or &itemid options. 

The only way I could get it to work was to go to the document and copy the link from the  View page which seems not very good way to do it.

Isn't it possible to get a simple option in the Menu Item Type for EDOCMAN,  eg. next to Document Details or Document Search a  Document View option ?

Nope, Edocman doesn't have "Document view" menu layout, so we still need to setup external url in this case.
Thanks
