I have to display base64 pdf in new tab. I am using below code
var windo = window.open("", "");
var objbuilder = '';
objbuilder += ('<embed width=\'100%\' height=\'100%\' src="data:application/pdf;base64,');
objbuilder += (fileData);
objbuilder += ('" type="application/pdf" />');
windo.document.write(objbuilder);
It is working in FireFox and not working in Chrome and IE. I even tried with tag, but same output, working in FF but not in Chrome and IE.
I look into below JsFiddles, for which are working in FF but not in Chrome,

My Chrome version is : Version 54.0.2840.99 m
FireFox Version : 49.0.2
Is any one have any idea, please share.
Thanks in Advance
It should work with Chrome you can use
<iframe src="data:base64...">
<object data="data:base64...">
I've faces same issue with IE: it's impossible to display a pdf with a base64
string.
I had to generate temporary files on the server for display them with IE he only display existing file by using a path.
You still can use JS library to display your pdf like PDF.js
.
for those who still can't do it, i found this in someone else answer, but i don't remember who...
var objbuilder = '';
objbuilder += ('<object width="100%" height="100%"
data="data:application/pdf;base64,');
objbuilder += (myBase64string);
objbuilder += ('" type="application/pdf" class="internal">');
objbuilder += ('<embed src="data:application/pdf;base64,');
objbuilder += (myBase64string);
objbuilder += ('" type="application/pdf" />');
objbuilder += ('</object>');
var win = window.open("#","_blank");
var title = "my tab title";
win.document.write('<html><title>'+ title +'</title><body style="margin-top:
0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">');
win.document.write(objbuilder);
win.document.write('</body></html>');
layer = jQuery(win.document);
this way we open the pdf in a new tab.
