I have attempted to add external PDF (server URL) and when trying to load only get a black screen? All screen apps security is off, even turned off do not allow virtual printers. Nothing in security profile.

Then I attempted to load the PDF from directory within Publication Root and it is not showing up? Have updated and know for certain PDF is in folder?

If I do not use the internal PDF viewer the PDF is displayed.
 
Indeed, the internal PDF viewer is not able to download remote PDF files. But it’s a really interesting idea we will work on for a future version.
 
Oh yes, missed that. Does your PDF file show in the File Manager? Because that’s strange that it does not appear in the “Select Publication File” list. Anyway, I added this to our TODO list for review.

This is another school related project and I have to be careful what I share until the IT department gives me ok - real pain in the… 🙂
 
Ok, I see that the PDF is inside a folder. And it’s not showing up in the Select Publication File.
Thanks!
