Attachment download in Compose window is not implemented. Only file preview is currently available. You
can fill the enchancement request at bugs.horde.org but it doesn't mean it will be implemented.

PDF preview works because a browser has PDF viewer plugin installed.

Re: attachment preview....


Dear Vilius ?umskas,

It works in Horde 3/IMP 4.  Then how can it become enhancement  
request?  Right now also, I have both setups and it works in Horde  
3/IMP4 and does not work in Horde 4/IMP 5.  So, my users are asking,  
why not in this?

I am not asking for browser to open in its own tab/window.  I am  
asking for a browser to prompt me to download/view/open with  
application installed in the local system (which it already knows,  
like for example, if there is a link for word file, and when I click  
on that link, it understands and asks me to either open or download.

If you have a Horde 3/IMP 4 installation, please check.

Regards,
Anant.

Why do you need a download button on the compose screen?  You just  
uploaded the file.

Re: attachment preview....


Dear All,

After a lot of debate, I decided to install abiword with all its  
dependencies.  Now, I am able to preview doc files.  But, I am unable  
to preview docx files?  Installed Abiword version  is,  
abiword-2.8.6-3.puias6.x86_64.

Does docx requires some other driver?

Regards,
Anant.
