Question : How to print content of flex viewer using asp button in client side using javascript ?

Answer :

$FlexPaper(flx).printPaper(‘current’);  should work fine for printing the current page. As should $FlexPaper(flx).printPaper(‘1-3’); if you want to specify a range or $FlexPaper(flx).printPaper(‘all’); for all pages. </p>

Question : Online PDF-VIewer. Disallow PDF-Download. However dynamically allow / disallow Printing.

Answer : You can accomplish this in either of our viewers – I would recommend downloading the desktop publisher for zine. Make sure the download button isn’t enabled before exporting your publication.</p>

Question : How do I switch between Tile and Flipview switchmode?

Answer : It will bring the user to the viewing mode that you have supplied in the “InitViewMode” parameter.</p>

Question : We want to disable copy/download of the pdf but allow printing?

Answer : Use our desktop publisher to publish your document, simply make sure the download button isn’t ticked when publishing your document.</p>

Question : Why isn’t the PDF2JSON installation working properly on CentOS?

Question : The getMarkList() method returns a empty list when it only contains area or text notes, what am I doing wrong?

Answer : Sounds like a configuration error – we did have a bug related to note marks not having their note property properly populated for some scenarios in some of our previous builds but its fixed as long as you download the latest build we have in our download area.

Supply us with a url to where you have deployed the viewer and we can have a look at your configuration. Send your details to [email protected]
