Hi Sipin, portlet is not able to open file from your local machine. portlet has access to server files only.
so you have to make portlet where user can upload some pdf file, then portlet can process that file (and then use pdfbox) Best regards Juraj Lonc From: Sipin Verma <[email protected]> To: [email protected], Date: 13. 09. 2012 12:56 Subject: How to use pdfviewer in liferay portlet to see a pdf Hi , My requirement is to open a pdf document from my local machine hard disk or from a online available pdf link in my liferay portlet.
