Opening attachments such as PDF in client is not yet supported and blocked in

AFFiNE/packages/frontend/electron/src/main/security-restrictions.ts

Line 39 in 9a17150

contents.setWindowOpenHandler(({ url }) => {

. In the long term we will support PDF viewer later.

For now I think maybe a workaround is to open a new electron window to serve the pdf contents.
