Hi

 

I wanted to ask if it is possible to preview a pdf document in a new browser window or a new tab (sheet). Currently, the preview runs within the same window/sheet.

Hi,

When using the Preview(Eye-icon) an Aurena feature is used there, not the browser's own preview feature, That is why the file is displayed on top of the same Aurena page, and not in a new tab of the browser. Currently it is not possible to preview in a new browser window. 

If Aurena agent is enabled, download command will download the document and calls out to Windows to open that downloaded file. But, yes that is not “Previewing”

Without the Aurena Agent, if you download rather than preview, you will basically get what you want if you set the browser to open PDF files by default.
