PDF file attachments do not show a feather button

PDF file attachments usually show a feather button. If you select the feather button, ezyVet shows a dialog box that you can use to show the file attachment content and enter an electronic signature. If a PDF attachment does not show the feather button, do this troubleshooting.

Missing feather button

The PDF attachment uses capital letters for its file name extension

The file name extension is the part of a file name that shows after the last full stop. For example, if a file name is clinical-results.pdf, the file name extension is .pdf.

If a PDF attachment uses capital letters for its file name extension, ezyVet does not show the feather button. For example:
  • If a PDF file name is clinical-results.pdf, ezyVet shows the feather button
  • If a PDF file name is clinical-results.PDF, ezyVet does not show the feather button
