My web viewer shows a “PRINT” button to print the file. but when I click on it, it doesn’t give any response. I want when the user click the print option, it should print the file or save it as pdf. ---

Does the same web page prints correctly and as expected if run directly from the browser? ---

That’s good news. So use the `open link` block in the control drawer instead of the Web Viewer. This will work for you unless you have a specific use for the web viewer component in your app. ---

by using open link it opens in other web browser. Will it not work inside web viewer? ---

You are the one who said it does not print from a web viewer. I have no idea if this is having to do with your web page or other issues as you have not provided enough info. ---
