  Hi
  
  In IE, the length limit of the URL is about 2048 bytes
  
  Query string may exceed 2048 bytes
  
  I use lz-string to compress strings
  
  However, the link in the pdf does not work
  
  Or maybe use another way to compress the string ?
  
  https://jsfiddle.net/p9e4a8dg/11/
  
  Please help me
  
  Thanks

  Hi,

  Compressing the URL won’t work because the actual URL changes after compression. Compressed strings are generally used to transfer data where the sender will compress the string and the receiver will decompress it using the same algorithm.
  
  In your case, the URL is compressed but it is not decompressed so it will not work.

  Since, it is a browser issue, we are sorry but we cannot do anything about it. But, there are various API available which can be used to shorten the URL. You may search the internet for the same and use the one which suits your requirements the best.

  Regards,
