Hey. I know I'm coming into this late. Does your client have a "budget"? Is he able/willing to allow users to access/view the docs via browser?
I'm fairly certain there are paid services that will get you what you're looking for at a "reasonable" cost. You didn't say how many people (or how many times, or how many docs) will go into the mix. I also think there might be content web/mobile open source apps to allow docs to be viewed/checked out - with viewing via browser. On Fri, Apr 17, 2020 at 9:20 PM George N.
