How to preview this pdf in js

Question

I was trying to preview this pdf like any other base64 pdf and it was returning blank screen so i checked the content and it left me puzzled. I'm using a $.ajax response to get its response. How can I possibly preview the response? Also what kind of encoding are these?

Preview of response : JVBERi0xLjUKJeLjz9MKMSAwIG9iago8PC9Db250ZW50cyAyIDAgUi9UeXBlL1BhZ2Uv... Content-Disposition: inline; filename="Report.pdf" Content-Length: 5948 Content-Type: application/octet-stream Actual-Response: PDF STRING IMAGE

this content will easily downloaded. in form of pdf file but for previewing you need a third party tool. — Negi Rox, Oct 17 '18 at 05:54
Show the code after the $.ajax call, that's where you are doing something wrong. — Kaiido, Oct 17 '18 at 05:58
