I want to show a PDF in a MVC view. The PDF content comes in form of a base64 string from business layer code. For example

string imagestring="Some base64 string";          
Model.ImageData = imagestring;// A string property in model

In the view I bind it as

<object data="data:application/pdf;base64,@System.Convert.ToBase64String(Model.ImageData)" 
type="application/pdf"></object>

It works in chrome , displaying the PDF correctly, but in IE 11 it is not displaying. How can I make this code work for IE 11?

You have Base64 string from business layer, but you have converted it to Base64 **again** in the view, is this intended? – Neverever Jun 24 '15 at 02:19
