Installing PDF view
-------------------

As user ``ckan``::

   . default/bin/activate
   pip install ckanext-pdfview

Edit the file ``/etc/ckan/default/production.ini`` and add the plugin::

   ckan.plugins = [...] pdf_view 

Also make sure the `resource_proxy` plugin is enabled in the `plugins` line if you want to render PDF files which are not located in the same server as CKAN.
