Hi,

To generate document preview on Share it uses the PDF.js library.

This component requires that all documents that are uploaded to Alfresco, be converted to PDF. When Share presents a message like the one you are seeing is because Alfresco has not been able to transform that document to PDF.

The issue could be:

- Alfresco doesn't support tiff transformation

You can check transforms available with url like this:

http://localhost/alfresco/s/mimetypes?mimetype=image/tiff#image/tiff 

- The size of the file is greater than the stablished value:

You can check this link:

https://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/HEAD/root/projects/repository/config/al... 

Please, review logs of the server, because maybe it contains detailed information. 

Regards,

clv
