I have a Bas64 encoded string for a pdf document coming from the back-end. Which I use window.open function to open it in Chrome. I know IE doesn't open the same in a new tab or any file over 32kb or any document other than images and few file types. Is there a way to open/download this document in IE?

window.open("data:application/pdf;base64," + base64string);

  • What version(s) of IE? Because the limit was increased to 4GB in IE9... A workaround for IE could be to create a link with that URI, then add code to trigger the click event... – Heretic Monkey Aug 18 '16 at 19:29
