WHAT IS THE BUG

If I upload a PDF file by using /pdf and paste the link, it shows a file but it doesn’t shows as embed or opens.

HOW TO REPRODUCE IT

  1. Create a new object and create a block with /pdf
  2. Paste your pdf link (I’ve used a GDrive which I can’t share here and I used this other one)
  3. Change its appearance to show as embed (it doesn’t work)
  4. Click on it and open it
  5. PDF viewer shows an error
  6. Try to download it and open it again (shows the same error)

THE EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

It should link the pdf and allow to show it as embed or download it.

SYSTEM INFORMATION

  • OS:
    Mac Os Big Sur
  • Device:
    Macbook Air
  • Anytype Version:
    Version: 0.31.0

ADDITIONAL CONTEXT

image
First file called “view”, its the GDrive pdf which I can’t download it and when I open it (I use my browser as PDF viewer) it shows a bunch of code.
The second file its the one I linked and when I open it, it says that there’s been an error.
None of the files show as embed.

I’m not sure if this was supposed to work before.
