Operating system: Windows/Ubuntu/Mac/…
Browser log
Insert your browser log here, this could for example include:
a) The javascript console log
b) The network log
c) ...
Verified on v31 and v32.
Looking at the console I see a request to https://[redacted hostname]/public.php/dav/files/[redacted file hash]/ that returns a 403 error.
This happens to all public link sharing of any PDF. If I disable the extension, it opens it properly with Nextcloud Office.
BUT, the download button also returns a Nextcloud's 403 page, whether the files_pdfviewer is enabled or not. So it may be a Nextcloud bug.
I can also confirm that the adding the edit permission to the public link enables viewing and downloading.
BTW I have the issue on one 31.0.8 instance, one v32.0.0 instance. One other 31.0.8 instance I manage doesn't have the issue ...
For me it is related to https://github.com/nextcloud/richdocuments/issues/4944
If I disable Enforce secure view for read only link shares in Nextcloud Office settings, the issue is gone.
@Unsourire can you try ?
