Hi, does somebody know how to show a PDF file from its base64 code. I have tried using web viewer componen creating a HTML interfase and using the PDF reader component, but from what I see Thunkable is not able to decode the base64 code. On the other hand the image component is be able to read a base64 code and show the image, but a PDF is different.

Thank for your help.  
Regards
