How to open PDF in browserless Forms12c (started via Java Web Start or FSAL)

Joe4APEXJan 30 2017 — edited Feb 7 2017

How to open PDF Files from browserless FORMS12c application on Windows Client, which are saved in the filesystem stored on the Client Side (or on the Share with letter-mapped Drive)?

The applcation is started ONLY with Java Web Start (no Internet Explorer for JavaScript interpreting).

In 11g all works fine.

I used JavaScript invoked by built-in web.show_document("...window.open(<file_path>)  for opening a PDF document.

Now in browserless Java Web Start Java Script doesn't open PDF document (we need to open DOCUMENT with remarks on defined place (for navigating to some chapters) -> using the Hash positioning ( e.g. file:///"c:/tmp/test.PDF#chapter=1).

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY  -->

--> HOW TO OPEN and SHOW PDF DOCUMENTS on the CLIENT WINDOWS SIDE, WHICH ARE SAVED as files IN THE FILESYSTEM and not in the database in FORMS 12c browserless?

Thank You in advance
