Preview document (tiff/jpg/pdf) in document details view

[jenskock]

hi everyone,

is it possible to have a direct preview/view of a document in the document details view (space/document/view details)?

thanks in advance

You could write a Template that does this and use that as a Custom View in the details screen.

In Alfresco 2.1 the Template API can be used to convert most document mimetypes to text format - we use it to display pop-up AJAX info panels in the 2.1 UI. So for 2.1 it will be easier to generate previews for custom views.

Thanks,

Kevin
