Universal Document Viewer (online sevice or self-hosted application)
Hi,
I'm lookig for an universal document viewer service or selft-hosted application. The key point is that I must not expose documents with public links, so it's not an option to use such services as http://view.officeapps.live.com or http://docs.google.com/ (though I could generate one-off public links in my application, but it would be like a workaround, not a decent solution).
So far I've googled this http://groupdocs.com/java/document-viewer-library (it's possible to deploy it on my own server if I recall right) and this https://box-content.readme.io/docs/get-started-with-the-view-api (provides view sessions with custom life time). Any more similar services/applications?
