Hello,

you can reactivate the Flash previewer by modifying the configuration of the web-preview.get.config.xml or using a Surf extension module with web-preview.get.js post-processor / customization. There is no simple flag to enable this as Flash as far as I know…

Hi,

I did the following in the web-preview.get.config.xml and after restarting the server I have the flash loaded like in the older version but the message "The previewer cannot be loaded from the server" appears before showing the document. Any idea?

Thank you
Jamil

Hello,

Ok I found what to change in the web-preview config file web-preview.get.config.xml:

 
  <!– Documents that have been converted to .pdf –>
 
     <!– 
      <condition mimeType="application/pdf">
         <plugin progressiveLoading="false">PdfJs</plugin>
      </condition>
 
      <condition thumbnail="pdf">
         <plugin src="pdf" progressiveLoading="false">PdfJs</plugin>
      </condition>
    –>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

So comment all the pdf section will back the previewer to flash.

Of course it is better to add the modified web-preview.get.config.xml to your share project to override the original file

Best regards
Jamil
