I now have this as a requirement, is it possible to view word doc in perspective?
I have the same requirement, but can't find solution yet. I can use python scripts docx_to_pdf.py to convert the .docx to .pdf, and the pdfView in ignition can display the .pdf, but I can't execute the external python scripts yet.
import subprocess
docx_path = "/path/to/server/input.docx"
pdf_path = "/path/to/server/output.pdf"
subprocess.run(["python", "docx_to_pdf.py", docx_path, pdf_path])
There's a StackOverflow question with solutions that might be adapted to use with Ignition.
Most of them involve either converting to PDF server-side or using an external service, such as
the Office Online's web viewer (and here's an example), to render the doc in an Inline Frame.
