    Linking to a document and showing a document title

    Hi All,

    I have a user question that was brought up and wondering if I could get some support with this. Currently we are uploading all of our PDF to umbraco. When we link them we have them pop up in a new window: The title bar pops up with the path of the pdf like so:

    Is there anyway to change that or have an attirbute in Umbraco to change that to a title such as PDF1 instead of having the path? I tried using a title tag in the link where I am forming it but am having no luck.

     

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks!

    Hi Vincent,

    Since the PDF is being opened directly within a web-browser, you'll have no control over the title of the window.

    If you need to set the title, then you'll need to look at a way to embed the PDF within a HTML document - there you can set the <title> to whatever you like.

    Quick disclaimer - embedding PDFs can be quite tricky ... everything comes down to the end-users set-up (whether they have the correct plugins installed, etc)

    Take a look at this StackOverflow topic for more details: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/291813/best-way-to-embed-pdf-in-html

    Cheers, Lee.
