It looks like WebViewer was unable to read your PDF file. It seems rather odd that it attempted to read it as a ZIP or package. Could you please send a support ticket here: https://apryse.com/form/request, and provide details on your configuration, the sample you tested with, and the name of the application that generated the file.
Hey VKS, currently, we don't support editing Excel documents, and it is limited to DOCX files. You can try that out on our showcase: https://showcase.apryse.com/office-editor. We hope to have this in the future, but currently, there is no timeline for when that would be available.
My usecase is use to edit the excel document uploaded in Appian.Is that currently supporting ?
I have download the component and connected system. Trying to view a PDF, I am getting the following error:Has anyone seen this before?
Yes, it should work without any connectivity to the internet. There are a few exceptions, however, that shouldn't impact development or core functionality.
Certain types of license keys will require the internet for licensing. This will not affect functionality but it will apply a watermark over documents. Also, if you require local/internal font substitution, you will have to host the font package and provide a link to it: https://docs.apryse.com/documentation/web/faq/self-serve-substitute-fonts/. Missing fonts may cause text rendering issues if fonts or substitutes are not available, but the viewer functionality remains unchanged. It is highly recommended and best practice to ensure fonts are embedded in documents to avoid any issues.
Let me know if this answers your question!
Does this plugin work on On Premise setup where the installed Appian instance will not have any connectivity to the internet ?
