The document object is an instance accessible from the main mupdfwv.MuPDFWebViewer instance as follows: 
const document = mupdf.document;
This assumes you have returned your instance name as mupdf from the initMuPDFWebViewer() promise!

​
document

The document object has the following methods:

​
open

open(config: { url: string, filename: string }) Opens a PDF document.
  • Arguments:
    • config – (required) The configuration object.
Config object:
  • Arguments:
    • url – (required) File path to open.
    • filename – (required) The file name to use for the file.
  • Returns: Promise.
Example 
mupdf.document.open({url:"my-file.pdf", filename:"My File"});
// remote URL
mupdf.document.open({url:"https://example.com/my-file.pdf", filename:"My File"});
Please note: when loading a remote PDF then ensure that you have the correct CORS & CSP settings in place to provide the PDF.CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) and CSP (Content Security Policy) are both web security mechanisms.
  • CORS is about server-to-server communication from browsers
  • CSP is about what content your own webpage can load and execute
If a remote PDF fails to load in MuPDF WebViewer then it is very possible that this might be related to one of these security mechanisms - ensure to check your console logs for any errors!
