Could not read from file: ...pdf.worker.min.js

[advancedlogic]

With the default example I see the pdf for 1 second and then I have error 504 (because it cannot find the file and timeouts) and I keep having this issue:

`✘ [ERROR] Could not read from file: /Users/user/Projects/Git/myproject/static/ui/node_modules/svelte-pdf/node_modules/pdfjs-dist/build/pdf.worker.min.js?url

node_modules/svelte-pdf/PdfViewer.svelte:45:24:
  45 │ ...rt pdfjsWorker from "pdfjs-dist/build/pdf.worker.min.js?url";`

I am using last version of Svelte/SvelteKit/Vite together with Tailwinds

Having the same issue, I took a look at #27, which says its fixed

my error looks likes this:

look like an issue with vite, please ref: vitejs/vite#10838

Hi, I was looking at this because I had the same issue. react-pdf had the same problem and they fixed it by removing the ?url at the end of the pdfJsWorker import url (not supported by Vite). Maybe that'll help you, here's how they fixed it :
wojtekmaj/react-pdf@v6.0.1...v6.0.2

It worked for me :)

[vinodnimbalkar]

Thanks @antoineMagentine
This issue was fixed by #50 so closing it.
