When trying to view a PDF in the PDF Viewer I saw this error: JPeg2000 (/JPXDecode filter) not supported yet Unable to get xobject named “Im0” Exception in thread “AWT-EventQueue-2” com.ribs.pdf.PDFException: Error reading XObject at com.ribs.pdf.PDFPageParser.parse(PDFPageParser.java:687) at com.ribs.pdf.PDFPageParser.executeForm(PDFPageParser.java:1085) at com.ribs.pdf.PDFPageParser.parse(PDFPageParser.java:684) at com.ribs.pdf.PDFPageParser.parse(PDFPageParser.java:542) at com.ribs.pdf.PDFPageParser.parsePage(PDFPageParser.java:56) at com.ribs.pdf.PDFPage.parse(PDFPage.java:482) at com.ribs.pdf.PDFPage.getImage(PDFPage.java:473) at com.reportmill.graphics.RMPDFImageReader.getImage(RMPDFImageReader.java:74) at com.reportmill.graphics.RMImageData.awt(RMImageData.java:418) at com.reportmill.graphics.RMImageFill.awt(RMImageFill.java:602) at com.reportmill.graphics.RMImageFill.paintShape(RMImageFill.java:362) at com.reportmill.shape.RMShapePainter.paintShape(RMShapePainter.java:166) at com.reportmill.shape.RMShapePainter.paintShape\_super(RMShapePainter.java:145) at com.reportmill.shape.RMShapePainter.paintShapeDeep(RMShapePainter.java:90) at com.reportmill.shape.RMShapePainter.paintShapeDeep(RMShapePainter.java:98) at com.reportmill.RMViewer.paintComponent(RMViewer.java:554) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JViewport.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at com.inductiveautomation.vision.api.client.components.model.AbstractVisionPanel.paintChildren(AbstractVisionPanel.java:250) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.plugins.reporting.components.ReportBase.paint(ReportBase.java:188) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at com.inductiveautomation.vision.api.client.components.model.AbstractVisionPanel.paintChildren(AbstractVisionPanel.java:250) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JLayeredPane.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at com.inductiveautomation.ignition.designer.designable.DesignPanel$DesignableContainerLayer.paintChildren(DesignPanel.java:1183) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintToOffscreen(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager$PaintManager.paintDoubleBuffered(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager$PaintManager.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.\_paintImmediately(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintImmediately(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager$3.run(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager$3.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.security.ProtectionDomain$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.paintDirtyRegions(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.paintDirtyRegions(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.prePaintDirtyRegions(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.access$1100(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager$ProcessingRunnable.run(Unknown Source) at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEventImpl(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue.access$200(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.security.ProtectionDomain$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForFilters(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForFilter(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(Unknown Source) This happened in Ignition 7.7.0 and 7.5.12 I have attached the PDF that cuased the error.

I would suggest using the PDF Viewer that is available from the Module Marketplace. It is free to use. [marketplace.inductiveautomation. … oduleId=48](http://marketplace.inductiveautomation.com/moduledetail?5&moduleId=48) I had issues trying to load your PDF as well, however it just wouldn’t load, I didn’t receive an error message. I would suggest using the module I suggested. ---

I tried the module as per your suggestion and it does open the PDF properly. For my use case, the client exports a ticket to be signed. When the signed ticket returns they scan in it and save as PDF, then attach it to the invoice and print/save it. To attach the invoice I readFileAsBytes(), save it in the database, then display it as the second page in the Report Viewer in an Image Placeholder. In this case I am unable to use the PDF Viewer module so I’m not sure how to handle this.
