Some test text!
There are a few ways to open a document such as from a URL, a blob, the filesystem, or base64 data. Additionally, there are loading options to help WebViewer determine the type of the file being loaded.
If your document is already in ArrayBuffer format you can convert the ArrayBuffer object to a Blob and then pass resulting Blob directly to loadDocument function.
WebViewer(...)
.then(instance => {
// `arrayBuffer` is your buffer data which can come
// from sources such as a server or the filesystem
const arr = new Uint8Array(arrayBuffer);
const blob = new Blob([arr], { type: 'application/pdf' });
instance.UI.loadDocument(blob, { filename: 'myfile.pdf' });
const { documentViewer } = instance.Core;
documentViewer.addEventListener('documentLoaded', () => {
// perform document operations
});
});
See more WebViewer events such as documentLoaded
to understand when to execute API operations.
