It is possible to fill fields in a PDF file programmatically in FileMaker using existing Javascript Libraries. Karl Jreijiri Posted on 11:01 AM - July 22, 2020 I use ScriptMaster to create some, but on Win10 it’s complicated to get them signed… I haven’t updated to FM18 or 19 because it only use signed plugin and I have very old that I need and until I have fully replace them with an alternative I can’t. I have another issue, FMA17 on Win10, I can no longer see or interact with a container field that contains a PDF, but this seems to be a problem other users have. I don’t have an iOS12 device anymore, but if I enter the URL in Safari it asks to download the file, and I think this is a new behaviour in iOS13… and probably that’s why the Webviewer is no longer displaying the PDF, it asks for a download, but the command fails and stop !Īs I mentioned, I use the same scheme to see JPG file and it’s working great.ĭo you think we can find a solution ? My understanding is that we can have the server stream the PDF to a container field ? How about having a table with a single record with a container field (not global) and have a server side script to insert the PDF and then switch the FMGo to that layout ? Prior to iOS13, I had a Webviewer and the URL was a $$variable it contains the same URL as the remote network and it was possible to see it in the Webviewerīut with iOS 13, it’s no longer the case. and job_number are variable that are calculated based on the current record.įMA Local network, I open URL and the PDF opens in Acrobat.įMA Remote network, I use an HFS file server and I can open using URL and it will open in the user’s browser. They are contracts and stored //server_1/data/contract//job_number.pdf Those documents are used by another application and they cannot be hosted on inserted into a container field. I have my scanned documents on my server, not on the same server as my FMS.

Two things, I really don’t get your post how to do it at all and I might not have explained my problem correctly. Jean-Francois Posted on 11:04 AM - November 15, 2020

For internal networks, install an SSL certificate on FileMaker Server and add a DNS record in order to get a valid SSL connection to the server from the client ( –> 192.168.1.10).For wisdom about container fields, check out our videos about them: part 1 and part 2 Storing files as references is a recipe for disaster.By “web server,” I’m referring to the web server of the FileMaker server, which is Apache for MacOs and IIS for Windows. Use SNI on the web server if you’re using an SSL certificate on the web server that’s different than the one installed on the FileMaker server.Getting “The webpage cannot be found” is often caused by not having a valid SSL certificate on both the web server and the FileMaker Server. Hosted solutions must have a valid SSL certificate.If you’re having problems opening the PDF file check out this blog.Selecting “Optimize for Images” will only render the first page of the PDF file.
