    <summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Hi Andrew &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As you may aware the liferay comes with the default PDF box which
  normally shows the preview of PDF extension and not the other
  extension files.This preview normally shown in the details page of
  document.when we enable the open office, Image magick, ghost script
  the preview of the PDF extension also changes to image instead of
  rendering from PDF box. We want this PDF box preview for the PDF file
  and other file extension has to make use of open office.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;</summary>

    <summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Olaf asked a good question. When you click the link for the PDF to
  see it, are you talking about the PDF rendering in the browser? The
  settings you are referring to for open office and stuff are not for
  LOOKING at the files (i.e. reading them), they are used for converting
  to different formats, print previews etc I think. &lt;/p&gt;</summary>
