View more than one document at a time in the Document Library
Have the ability to view more than one document at a time in the Document Library PDF viewer, without having to open multiple tabs.

Hi Greg
Can this idea be progressed as it is quite an obsacle for us. We have scenarios where Engineers need to have more than one manual open at a time and although there is the option to download the manual as a PDF, we really want to avoid this otherwise it runs the risk of having un-controlled copies being saved locally on computers used by multiple users.
Thank you for the update. This would be a really useful function as often a Manual or Document makes reference to other Documents/Files in the Document Library, therefore it would be practical to be able to open more than one document, without having to open multiple tabs/URLs.
I have tested a bit further and have been able to open multiple pdfs at the same time by copying the Urls into new tabs. Making the interface open in a new window is still a change so I will change this idea back to gathering interest.

Sorry for the confusion.

Hi Vanisha,
Unfortunately with the PDF control there is no way to show multiple documents without using multiple tabs.
