pdf from file

[Abderrazak]

Hi at All,

i try to open a pdf file from device when using this code :

 

   var doc = DependencyService.Get<IFiles>().GetPath(path);
                var filepath = Path.Combine(doc, pdfName);

                if (File.Exists(filepath))
                {
                    File.OpenRead(filepath);
                    pdfViewer.Source = filepath;

                }

i get this error : an error occured while loading the document.

may be i do somthing wrong !?

 

Gruß

Hello Abderrazak,

I checked the snippet and actually File.OpenRead method returns a Stream object  - the stream should be then passed to the PdfViewer Source (instead of filepath).

Please try it like this and let me know the result.

If this does not help, you can try handling the SourceException event in order to receive more information on the reason for not loading the file.

I look forward to your reply.

Hey Yana,

all good, i remove this line File.OpenRead(filepath)  and works fine :) 

Thanks
