Anil and the community, It is actually untrue that there are no online document viewing solutions for DSpace. @mire provides a very affordable addon for DSpace that supplies the functionality you are seeking. The Document Streaming module provides customizations for the DSpace XMLUI that integrate it with the online document viewing service, Scribd (http://scribd.com). It uses the same iPaper and flash approach discussed earlier in the thread. DSpace content is pushed to Scribd and a javascript viewing interface is linked to in the DSpace Item View. It is quite effective for streaming access to larger documents and for providing controlled access to DRM restricted content. It comes with installation assistance by the @mire team and 1 year technical support.

Happy New Year.
