That should be pretty easy in XMLUI using something like Google's viewer, especially if you have no collections that need to be authenticated. You should be able to simply make changes to your theme.xsl file to enable it (and perhaps messages.xml). No java coding would be necessary using this method.
You could do something very similar to what I have explained here for the inclusion of the video tag for HTML5 pseudo streaming. http://neoarch.wordpress.com/2009/12/15/using-the-html-5-video-tag-in-dspace/ Instead of embedding the video tag, you would put in code to embed the viewer. I am in a bit of a hurry now. If you need more information, let me know and I can explain this more fully next week.

I am using XMLUI as a default and I need to show those changes on XMLUI. I also discovered that setting up most functionalities for JSPUI is quite straight forward than for XMLUI. The thumbnail preview is well setup on JSPUI than on XMLUI where I can see changes happened on the web interface. Regards, Lewatle This communication is intended for the addressee only.
