Product:TIBCO Spotfire Analyst
Versions:12.0 and higher
Summary:
When adding a URL that points to a PDF file the data is not displayed as expected
Details:
The Web Page Panel is used to display web pages in Spotfire. When using the TIBCO Spotfire Analyst client and configuring the Web Page panel with a URL which displays a PDF file, the PDF file is not displayed and a pop-up may appear like "You'll need a new app to open this chrome-extension."
Resolution:
Spotfire utilizes Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) as a third-party tool to display various types of data in the program. The CEF version used in Spotfire has been upgraded, and CEF no longer supports embedded PDF files to be displayed in this manner.
The suggested workaround is to use an image file instead of a PDF file.
