Dear Michael,
Thanks for responding.
I am not willing to install abiword, so server side converting and
showing is not possible. I agree on this.
I also agree that browser don't have built-in renderer for viewing
word files and hence the user has to download and view on the local
machine. But, I don't get an option to download or view using local
machine. This is my problem. I hope, I am able to convey you what I
want.
I want an option to download/view the attached word/excel file,
instead it always opens new tab without showing anything (Word driver
is disabled by default).
Whereas for a pdf file attached, I get an option to either
download/view from a local machine. I want the same behaviour for
word/excel files.
Sorry, if I am troubling you. Sorry, if I am unable to understand
what you want to convey.
Please guide me.
Regards,
Anant.

Quoting ANANT S ATHAVALE <[email protected]>:
Dear All,
Why is that, I am suppose to use only 'abiword' for previewing
attached word documents? Can somebody please point out or an old
thread which makes it clear. Some of my users are not willing to
use new version only because they are unable to preview their
attached word files.
to be clear, what is the way to preview the attached word files if
abiword is not installed on web server (Horde/Imp).
There is no way. How would this work? Browsers don't have a
built-in renderer for viewing word files, so a user either has to
download and view on their local machine or the server has to
convert it for them. If you are unwilling to install abiword, the
latter is not possible.
