Can you elaborate on how to disable the download as I would embed the document easily but I wont be able to get any property to disable the download button.

Hello [mention:7703864759a3439fbcd9581df22b2bde:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] 

Please refer the below documentation for better understanding.

Document Viewer Component

If your file is stored within Appian it would display. If your file is out of the system it would download or throw an error sometimes.

AFAIK , if the document is non-compatible to display in the viewer then You will not have control over that. 

Also you can do a validation check before passing it into the viewer component. If it is of some file type that is not supported, you can not show the viewer component.

I don't think you can do that. You can look for plugins on the App market but nothing more.

Plugins are there, but there is watermark coming along with this.
That doesn't solves the purpose.

There should be a way to pay and get rid of the mark if restricting a user from downloading is really important. Additionally, if it is a single-page PDF, you can display it in an image field. It won't be crystal clear, but will serve the purpose.
