Display a .pdf in a map tip
I want to display a pdf file in a map tip. I want to give the user a preview of the asbuilt they are clicking on. Is this possible? I can do this with a .jpg but I can't make it work for .pdf.
I tried to use this example I found online but it didnt work. I assume the embed tag gets removed.
<embed src="http://example.com/the.pdf" width="500" height="375" type="application/pdf">

Not as a .pdf, though you can use <img> tags and thus could mass-convert your pdfs into a format that the MapTips will embed. I'm not recommending this, in addition to the extra work involved on the back end there's a usability issue with large popups over your map. I think that you'd also need to make a mod or so to the viewer in order to make the maptips large enough for this use case.
What we do is put a 32p pdf icon in the maptip which links directly to the pdf, and this is the route I recommend. The users who want that document have access right there, and the users who want to use the app don't need to make sacrifices for the first group.0
