Need to view Image content of format gif/docx/pdf in the same window which are attached to the Pega case.
1. We were able to view the image content sucessfully of type PNG/GIF/JPEG which are attached to the case without downloading the image.
2. For this we wrote custom control to transform the image stream as HTML
3. <img name='test' src='data:image/gif;base64, <pega:reference name="$this-value" mode="normal" />' />
4. But we have difficulty in the viewing the content of pdf/word/text files which are attached to the case without downloading.
5. Is there any suggestion which we can add to the control or other means to view those files(PDF/Word/Txt) within PRPC without downloading. ?
Appreciate your help.

Hi Prasad, Good morning!
>>> suggestion which we can add to the control or other means to view those files(PDF/Word/Txt) within PRPC without downloading. ?
- could we try replicating the implementation of field type 'attachment' noticed/seen while creating Data type rule (A.K.A Data Table)
Otherwise - we may need to write custom controls using third party tools (PDFViewer for PDF) etc.. which I'm not aware of.
Please share your thoughts/comments, Thank you!

Hi Prasad, Good morning!
- please refer OOTB section RULE-HTML-SECTION EMBED-ATTACH-FILE PYATTACHPREVIEW
- which refers to OOTB control - RULE-HTML-PROPERTY PZATTACHMENTTHUMBNAIL [starting Pega 7.1.8] to enable the preview of attachment.
- not sure would this help in preview of how PDF, Word but get the preview for at least image files.
- (included in RULE-HTML-SECTION EMBED-ATTACH-FILE PYATTACHWRAPPER)
- not sure would this help in preview of how PDF, Word but get the preview for at least image files.
- which refers to OOTB control - RULE-HTML-PROPERTY PZATTACHMENTTHUMBNAIL [starting Pega 7.1.8] to enable the preview of attachment.
- in the application UI/Screen
- we need to try including this [PYATTACHWRAPPER/PYATTACHPREVIEW] rule
- referenced with the attachment property as shown in previous screenshot.
- we need to try including this [PYATTACHWRAPPER/PYATTACHPREVIEW] rule
- also please refer the operator record implementation where in on upload of operator image it does a preview of uploaded file.
- as said earlier - these rules may not help (not sure, sorry) in previewing the PDFs, Word docs etc but should display at least image files. for PDF, word custom controls might be needed.
Please share your thoughts/comments, Thank you!

Can you tell me how to display image content of format jpg, png, gif in the same window which are attached to the Pega case though?
Tried <img name='test' src='data:image/gif;base64, <pega:reference name="$this-value" mode="normal" />' /> on a paragraph but it did not work.
