Could you please help on this

Hi @madhumohan :smiley:

You’ll need to install an XBlock that supports PDFs. We use this one: GitHub - open-craft/xblock-pdf: Course component (Open edX XBlock) that provides an easy way to embed a PDF (which is a fork of an unmaintained original XBlock), and there are 2 others listed on the XBlock Directory.

See Installing an XBlock for instructions on how to install an XBlock.

Hi @jill I’ve been searching high and low for a pdf xblock that still works. I’ve installed a few xblocks without any problems, but for some reason, I can’t seem to find a maintained pdf embed xblock. Tried everything here as well as your suggestion. Any other ideas? I don’t think there is anything wrong with my installation method since I’m not having any other troubles installing other xblocks. For some reason, it’s just the pdf xblocks. Any help you might be able to offer would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Ryan
