problem with PDF visor

[alejandroRodri]

I have a problem with the visual object ‘pdf viewer’ with which you can view pdf's converted to base 64. I am performing the following procedure:

I convert my pdf to a text string in base 64.
I take this text string and truncate it in cells of 30.000 characters in an excel
I load that excel in powerbi
I concatenate the X cells that you have in one cell to be able to visualize the content.

If the text string is not very long and does not generate more than 15,20 cells approximately there is no problem, the problem comes when the pdf is very large and the string generates hundreds of cells, then I get the error:
The function ‘PLACEHOLDER’ found a text string that exceeds the maximum allowed length.

Can anyone think of a way to display these large pdf's? The option to make screenshots and display them is not viable.

Hello, good luck to him.

I still had problems with the PDF viewer, a solution may be this
My PDFs are uploaded to a sharepoint, so I made a column like this

PDF : CONCATENATE("RUTA-SHAREPOINT",[PDF Name]), " ")
Data type: URL WEB
Result

By clicking on the hyperlink, the PDF is displayed

I hope I have helped you, any questions I am pending

Best regards
