The page viewer in Papercloud allows for native viewing of the following document types:
To choose your native method of opening the above non-image file-types mentioned above, you can configure the following options:
Click the "Edit profile" option in the dropdown list from clicking your profile icon.
Here, you can select the default behaviour for the left-click action on the specified document.
Set which default behaviour you would like for the left-click action, then save.
The "View in Papercloud (Read Only)" option opens the clicked document in the image viewer within Papercloud.
The "Download/" options open the document in the associated application for viewing and editing, e.g. Word documents open in MS Word, Emails in Outlook, and PDFs in your chosen PDF reader.
Depending on the options chosen, your click behaviour will differ.
If "View in Papercloud" is selected, clicking on a Word documents will open a read-only copy in Papercloud.
To open a document using the other method than what you have selected as default, simply right-click and both options will be available for selection.
NOTE: As mentioned, the page viewer is a read-only instance of the document, any mark-up elements drawn or written in the viewer will not be saved. Most browsers will enable the User to 'Save Out' from within the window - this will download a copy of the annotated document onto your computer - it will not update the version within Papercloud. Naturally, the User can then import that downloaded document into Papercloud via the usual methods if required.
It's important to note that there will be differences in the features available within the Viewer Window as these are determined by the User's internet browser. Below are some examples of what you might see in each of the browser programmes.
Check out the quick overview video which includes this feature upgrade.
