Hi,
Do you mind share the pdf file that demonstrates the issue?

[obiwankennedy]

Sure, I sent you an email. Right now.

[obiwankennedy]

Did you get the link ?

[Archie3d]

Yes, I have the file, and can confirm that it does not load correctly. This will probably require upgrading to the latest pdf.js, but since the API has been changes this may take me a while. I'll keep you updated here.

The problem is that the pdf file mentioned here was too large (150Mb) and crashed the QtWebView process when passed as base64 string into JavaScript. Currently it is the only way to pass the file content into the browser process without violating the cross origin security measure. I had to disable the web security in the viewer to allow files to be loaded by the browser itself (omitting base64 serialization).
The pdf loads correctly now.

Thanks,
I updated the project, but I can't make it to work. Have you commit all your changes ?
I'm getting this error:

js: The provided value 'moz-chunked-arraybuffer' is not a valid enum value of type XMLHttpRequestResponseType.
[1:2:0203/233858.098543:ERROR:channel.cc(507)] Invalid message size: 378616104

and the latest git commit is : commit ef43129

If I load the file from the GUI, it uses loadFile instead of loadData.

Hi, Yes, this is correct. The 'moz-' errors can be ignored, these are because pdf.js expects Mozilla browser, I guess. I've tested it with Qt-5.9.1 MSVC-2017 and it works fine. Do you use pdfviewer provided or only qpdflib?

Both,
I integrated your code into one of my project (GPLv2) and I can load small pdf.
But It is still not working for big ones.
So I updated your code to see if it works on my computer. But it is not.

I'm running on Ubuntu 16.04, with Qt 5.9.3, 64bits.

Hi, Do you make sure you pass "--disable-web-security" command line argument to your QApplication (see main.cpp of pdfviewer)? Can you load your PDF using pdfviewer? I'll try it in Ubuntu.

Hi, I've committed a small change to explicitly specify file:// This fixes loading on Linux. Tested with Ubuntu and Qt 5.8.0.

It works fine! Thank you!
