  Ok, I’ve managed to make some progress with the c1flexviewer.
  
  But when i add this object to a c1ribbonform, the c1flexviewer object overlays the form minimize/maximize area, being on top of them.
  
  Check the attached image, any idea why?

  See in the top right position, the object ontop of the form

  Hello,

  Thank you for sharing the image.

  I would like to inform you that this is the expected behavior. C1FlexViewer contains C1Ribbon control that is integrated with the title bar of the owner C1RibbonForm.
  
  If you wish to prevent integration of the form header with C1FlexViewer, you may add a Panel control to the Form, then instead of adding C1FlexViewer to C1RibbonForm directly, add it to Panel’s Controls collection.

  Thanks,
  
  Ruchir

  Hi Ruchir,

  Thank you, got it.
  
  As for other file types, in case: images (jpg/png/bmp) or word files, is the flexviewer capable or preview them?
  
  If yes can you post sample?

  for the pdf’s i’m doing in this way:

  	stream = New IO.MemoryStream(b)
  
              Dim pp As New C1.Win.C1Document.C1PdfDocumentSource
              pp.LoadFromStream(stream)
  
              C1FlexViewer1.DocumentSource = pp

  Apart from that, give me another help.
  
  I want to start it with the ribbon minimized, i’ve been searching the properties like “C1FlexViewer1.Ribbon.” but I’m not seeing which options is to make it minimize on the form load.

  Can you give this 2nd help?
  
  Jorge,

  Hello,

  1. FlexViewer is used to preview document types like C1Report, C1FlexReport, SSRS, PDF only. However, you can export the reports and documents to the various formats, such as DOCX, RTF, Open XML Word, Open XML Excel, HTML, PDF, GIF, JPEG, PNG, BMP, and TIFF.
  2. To load ribbon in minimized view, you may set its Ribbon.Minimized property to True

     C1FlexViewer1.Ribbon.Minimized = True

     3. To localize text of ribbon buttons (or FlexViewer in general), you need to use the Localize dialog box (See attached screen-shot). Additionally, in case you are using English version Windows, you may need to specify UICulture explicitly:```
     
     Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo(“de”);

  
  Thanks,
  Ruchir

  Perfect, thanks for the 3.
  
  About localize, yes I use EN OS, so my end users will have PT language.

  Hi Jorge,

  In order to localize viewer text for portuguese language, you need to set UICulture, like I mentioned earlier:```
  
  Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo(“pt”);
