Hi @CatherineBacon,
In order to help you both now and in the future, I am going to provide you with links to three different guides in the Canvas Community. This means the process might seem longer.
When doing step #3, review the "View Link" and "View Link Options" sections for guidance on how to configure the "Display Options" so that you can see the document inside of Canvas without downloading the file.
The What types of files can I preview in Canvas? guide provides a list of files formats that are capable of being displayed by the Canvas DocViewer.
Did you find that helpful or do you still have more questions?

My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
