Context

TCM HTML5 Viewer



Cause

Existing third-party Snowbound issue that prevents displaying certain PDF pages from displaying the CM Viewer

Additional Information

Workarounds:

  • PDFs can be viewed in the TCM Full Client 

  • PDFs can be downloaded from the TCM HTML5 Viewer to view

  • PDFs can be downloaded, converted to a new PDF, and re-uploaded:
