Embed a PDF in BIRT Report

megabri

I know in Actuate you can't embed a PDF in the report, I was wondering if anyone found a way to do it in BIRT?

You can use the embed tag to do this in a text box, make sure you switch it to HTML.<br />
<br />
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'><embed src="http://pdfobject.com/pdf/sample.pdf#toolbar=0&amp;navpanes=0&amp;scrollbar=0" width="500" height="375"></pre>
<br />
While testing it I found that I can't point at a pdf locally using C:\somepath\document.pdf<br />
<br />
I had to use this when showing my document.<br />

<a class='bbc_url' href='http://localhost:8080/somepath/document.pdf'>http://localhost:8080/somepath/document.pdf</a&gt;
