[Dspace-tech] showing a PDF in the browser (cont.)
When a PDF file is served by Tomcat directly, then the header says: . . . Content-Typeapplication/pdf . . . and the file is displayed by the plugin in the browser. When the same PDF is served by DSpace, then the header says: . . . Content-Dispositionattachment;filename=bookPDF2.pdf Content-Typeapplication/pdf;charset=ISO-8859-1 . . . and the browser asks - to save or to open outside the browser. Is this on purpose and is this configurable (I mean configurable in DSpace)? -- CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.

Hi Evgeni Is this not also browser dependant? How do the developers cater for ALL browser options regarding MIME types?

Re: [Dspace-tech] showing a PDF in the browser (cont.)
Hi Hilton, This is in the response header. Same to all browsers. And it looks like all browsers (Firefox, Internet Explorer etc.) treat the pdf differently depending on disposition - attachment or not.
