  Hi,

  I’m working with Angular 4 and wijmo 5.20173.403. I’m trying to use the wijmo pdf viewer, but I’m getting error:
  
  “Can’t resolve ‘/node_modules/wijmo/wijmo.viewer’ …” in my app.module.

  Can someone tell me why I’m getting this error?

  Thank you,

  Hi Manish,

  Thank you for your reply, your example really helps, I’m able to import all the modules.

  But now I’m getting errors when I create an object url using URL.createObjectURL([pdf blob]) and pass it to the ‘filePath’ binding.

  So is it possible to bind the filePath to a blob url?

  Another question, is the ‘serviceUrl’ a required field for a pdf viewer?

  Thank you,

  Hi,
  
  It seems that currently PDFViewer do not allow to View content using Blob. Hence, we forwarded this to the concerned team for confirmation with internal tracking id 307592.

  We will let you know as we get any update on this.

  As of now, serviceUrl & filePath is required parameter to show the PDF using Service.

  Hi,
  
  PDFViewer works solely with the server side C1 Web API PDFDocument Services:

  http://helpcentral.componentone.com/nethelp/C1WebAPI/webframe.html#PDFDocumentServices.html

  And filePath should be a path to a file known to the PDFDocument Services, it can’t be a data url.

  Hence, PDFViewer can’t view content using PDFBlob.

  Hi,
  
  Recently, we received a sample from our development team for showing the PDF content using PDFBlob in the PDFViewer.
  
  Please refer to the attached samples for reference where one is an API project to provide the base64 string to show in the PDFViewer.
  
  Another project is to configure the PDF Viewer to show the PDF content from base64.

  Please let us know if you have any further queries regarding this.

  Regards,
