Problem
When trying to embed a PDF into NetSuite using eXtendFiles—such as in the eXtendFiles - Preview field, an Inline HTML field, or a Formula (HTML) field in saved search results—the embed does not render.
Solution
As per Microsoft, this behavior is by design. While direct PDF embedding isn't possible, potential workarounds are provided below:
Workaround 1
For files that can't be embedded, they can still be opened in a new browser tab using their link to view the file..
Workaround 2
After a preview and/or thumbnail image has been generated for the file, the converted file image can be embedded.
