When searching for referees, it is usual in our community (maths) that the person asked to referee can download the paper to decide whether he accepts to referee or not. I don’t see how to do this in OJS3. It this possible ?
It is the last setting in Settings => Workflow => Review
edit: also see Adding the link to a submission file for a reviewer in OJS 3.0 · Issue #1875 · pkp/pkp-lib · GitHub and patches
@ajnyga: thanks! but it doesn’t seem to work. In my settings “Enable one-click reviewer access.” is ON and
“Reviewers will have access to the submission file only after agreeing to review it.” if OFF, but when the referee clicks on the links he’s provided in the email, he can only see the abstract, not the full manuscript. (see below).
Is there something special to do to make it work ?

Did you check the link, there are two patches there that you need in order to see files already in step 1 of the review form.
Also, I think that the reviewer is getting the full text files as email attachments anyway?
I haven’t applied any patch yet. I’m using http://pkp.sfu.ca/ojs/download/ojs-3.0.2.tar.gz
And with this, no, there is no email attachment in the email sent to the reviewer 
That fix came after the original 3.0.2. release was done so that is the reason you are not seeing the files.
About the email attachments, I actually do not know if they should be there. I could be wrong with this one.
