Hi there, andysbikeclinic.
I'll provide information on how to fix error Failed to load PDF documents.
If you're using QuickBooks Online, I suggest logging into your QuickBooks account using a private browser (incognito). There are times that the browser keeps outdated Internet files that may cause websites, like QuickBooks Online, to receive an unusually invalid error. That being said, Browsing privately is a good way to check issues caused by a full cache.
Use these keyboard shortcuts based on the browser you're using.
- For Internet Explorer of Firefox, press Ctrl + Shift + P.
- For Chrome, press Ctrl + Shift + N.
- For Safari, hold down Command + Shift + N.
If everything looks good, return to your default browser and perform a clear cache. Every so often the cache becomes overwhelmed with older data which can potentially cause viewing and performance issues. Clearing it will refresh the system, and you'll be able to work with a clean slate. However, if the issue persists, try using other supported browsers. You can also share this troubleshooting steps to your clients.
