IIUC, Emacs can't display real PDF files. It only can convert them (via DocView) to PNG, one per page, in order to give a similar experience. If that's right, a PDF file on itself, be it an image, never will be displayed in Emacs, unless one adds extra machinery in Org mode. Then, should Org try to open a PDF (remote or local, same question)? Best regards, Seb -- Sebastien Vauban
