The new document viewer allows you to view Open XML Microsoft files directly in Fuse, including DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, and PDF. 

Note

Files from Google, such as Google Docs, Sheets and Slides cannot be viewed in Fuse’s document viewer. However, you can embed these files in articles using an embed code. For information on how to do this, see Embedding external content (e.g. Google files) in Fuse articles.

Info

NotesNote: If you have older versions of Microsoft files in Fuse (such as DOC, XLS or PPT) you must convert them to Open XML before they can be viewed in the new document viewer.

  • Currently, hyperlinks within PDFs are not clickable in the new document viewer. For a list of workarounds, see /wiki/spaces/customerwiki/pages/3193896973.

    • Warning

    Macro files such as .XLSM are not viewable in the document viewer. This is because macros may contain malicious code and are generally not supported by file hosting services. If downloaded, .XLSM files will be packaged in a ZIP file.

    The new document viewer comes with the following built-in options:
