Base64 encoded to pdf in Google chrome?

Question

How can we display a PDF using JavaScript from a base64 in Google chrome? As application:PDF,base64:pdfbase64binary is not working anymore

Answer 1

You can use a Blob URL to represent the file.

fetch(<data URI>)
.then(response => response.blob())
.then(blob => {
  // do stuff with `Blob URL`
  const blobURL = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
});

See Creating a Blob from a base64 string in JavaScript, also Base64 PDF in new tab shows Blank Page before Refresh.

Answer 2

window.open("data:application/octet-stream;base64," + response)
