PDF Attachments Opening Inconsistently (browser v. download)
Hi,
I'm having trouble with pdfs in a Rise 360 course opening inconsistently. Some open in a browser window and others download automatically. My browser (Chrome) is set to open attachments in a n...
Here's a fun little tidbit: I was in the middle of developing my course when they fixed the problem, so half the documents in my module download automatically, and the other half open in browser windows.
The only way to fix it seems to be re-uploading all the documents that are downloading automatically.

HI,
I'm experiencing the same problem, which was communicated to me by a client. I need PDF files, uploaded using the Attachments block, to download to the device and not open in the Rise course page.
I reuploaded the PDF file to Rise, published the scorm package to the LMS but it doesn't work. The user who reported the problem still sees the PDF file inside the Rise page, if he uses the iphone, and can't download the file, if he uses his android smartphone.
There were and are no problems on the iPhone and Android smartphone used to carry out the tests.
Re-uploading the file doesn't seem to have worked.
What can I do? The customer got impatient...Thanks for support.
Hi Giovannamaria!
I understand that you want your embedded PDF files to download instead of opening in the Rise window.
I see that you have a case open with us. Cleo, one of our technical support engineers, has replied back to you. Please feel free to work with him directly.
Hi Hazel,
I'm not sure this was meant for me. My problem is resolved. Thanks!
