How to display and download Base64 encoded PDF documents with Lightning Web Components
Attributes
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| base64 | string | The content of the PDF file as Base64 encoded string, without a data URL prefix. An example file is used until this is set. | |
| file-name | string | 'example.pdf' | The name of the downloaded file. |
Usage
html
<c-base64-to-pdf base64={pdfContent} file-name="invoice.pdf"></c-base64-to-pdf>The content is offered as a PDF download. Without the base64 attribute, the component offers an example file (see example.js). If base64 is set but empty, for example while your data is loading, it offers no download at all.
Custom Labels
The texts users see are Custom Labels, so they can be translated in Setup with the Translation Workbench. Copy them together with the component.
