Some HL7 have a ZEF Segment and some embed PDF in the OBX. It would be helpful to have a way to view the PDF.

    I have thought about doing that before. Will see if I can get some time to add the feature.

    As an alternative, if you have Notepad++ with the MIME Tools plugin, assuming the PDF is embedded as Base64, you can copy/paste the encoded document data and use the Base64 Decode function then save the result as a PDF file. This is a few more steps to take but that works for me when I need to test PDF contents.

    It's been a while, but I got inspired and added handling of Base64 encoded files. Not able to push changes to SourceForge right now for some reason, but an update will be coming soon.
