If a pdf document is saved actually IN a container field and not just its relative path, then...is there a way to view the file in the web viewer? (other than its path, elsewhere on the computer, being entered)

Thanks,

Paul

Here is briefly how you can do it.

Export the file out with a specific name.

Then try to set the web viewer to disply the file with the

file name and address known already.

Use the example of the Web viewer from FMP to help you with displaying part.

If any problems send a line or two.

The only issue with xoomasters suggestion is that prior to exporting the file, you will see the file that you previously exported (unless you remove it using os level scripting).
