Display PDF file
I am trying to display a PDF file that I have on disk using this:
<div>
<h4>PDF File:</h4>
<%= @data %>
</div>
However, the page looks like gibberish. Same if I use <%= Phoenix.HTML.raw @data %>

To render it in the middle of the page you’ll need to leverage some javascript https://stackoverflow.com/questions/291813/recommended-way-to-embed-pdf-in-html

in your controller set the appropriate content type and then stream the payload into the conn.

@jxxcarlson are you trying to send them a pdf file? or render it inline with html? If you’re just sending them a file then use https://hexdocs.pm/plug/Plug.Conn.html#send_file/5
