Hi Raghavendra Pothula

Try this code:

byte[] pdfContent = slReport.getBytes();

IWDCachedWebResource pdfResource = WDWebResource.getWebResource(pdfContent,WDWebResourceType.PDF);

IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createExternalWindow(pdfResource.getURL(), "Report View", true);

// Eliminate some features of the window

window.removeWindowFeature(WDWindowFeature.ADDRESS_BAR);

window.removeWindowFeature(WDWindowFeature.MENU_BAR);

window.removeWindowFeature(WDWindowFeature.STATUS_BAR);

window.removeWindowFeature(WDWindowFeature.TOOL_BAR);

window.setWindowSize(780,430);

window.setWindowPosition(20,140);

window.open();

This code work to me.

Thanks Leite for help,

Even this doesnt works for me. Earlier itself i tried, and i dont want to use the deprecated methods. Still i am not able to get the output on the PDF. Problem is that its showing the Content in the browser rather on PDF. I strongly believe that this may not be with CODE.

Anyone pls help..

Thanks,

Raghavendra Pothula,

Have you tried in other browser client? The problem may be in your browser! Cache or something like that!
