Error on Opening Local PDF File #5

Closed hennryns closed 11 years ago

hennryns commented 11 years ago

Dear Sir / Madam,

I understand this PDF JS Viewer has capability to open PDF File that stored on local disk; I managed to do this by using "Open File" button on the toolbar.

But it always shows error if I try to open the PDF File by dragging local PDF file and drop to the browser page. There is message: An error occurred while loading the PDF.

Do you have any advice on this issue?

Thank you.

PDF.js v0.8.169 (build: 869b878)

Did you put a tick at "Allow access to file URLs" at the extension settings page? If yes, does it also happen with the Chrome extension in Chrome?

Yes, I already put a tick at "Allow access to file URLs" at the extension settings page on Opera 15; but error still happens.

Surprisingly, the error does not happen in Chrome extension in Chrome Browser; I also try to install the Chrome extension to Opera 15, and the error does not happen.

So, I think the problem is from this old Opera PDF Viewer extension; hopefully, someone from @operasoftware will update this extension to the latest version immediately.

Thank you.
