Frequently asked questions
What are the system requirements for integrating the PDF viewer SDK into a web application?
A modern browser and web server are the only requirements to integrate Nutrient into a web application. There’s no dependency on frameworks such as React, Next, or Angular.
How does the PDF viewer SDK ensure high-fidelity rendering across different browsers and devices?
The PDF viewer SDK has built-in mobile support for displaying your PDFs. It comes with a responsive UI that works on all screen sizes. The UI adapts to the screen automatically, providing you with a seamless experience. It provides the same features on desktop, tablet, and mobile views.
Can the PDF web viewer SDK enable customization to match our brand’s UI/UX design?
Nutrient Web SDK makes it easy to customize every part of the user interface. Our robust API for configuring behavior and appearance lets you hide or add buttons, change the theme to match your look and feel, trigger workflows, create overlays, and much more.
How secure is the PDF viewer SDK, and what security features are included?
The Nutrient SDK is based on an optimized fork of PDFium, the most trusted platform for PDF rendering. PDFium is the same PDF engine used in Chromium, Android, and countless other applications. The PDFium project is backed by Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Dropbox.
The PDF web viewer SDK is developed with a security-conscious approach. Encrypted PDFs are supported, and they cannot be accessed without the matching password. PDF passwords are never persisted, and code commits undergo peer review and extensive testing before being merged.
How easy is it to integrate the PDF web viewer SDK with other tools and frameworks, such as React or Angular?
The web viewer SDK is compatible with any JavaScript framework, including React, Next, Angular, Vue, Svelte, Blazor, Solid, Nuxt.js, and jQuery. It’s also compatible with Electron, ASP.NET, PHP, Laravel, and Rails, as well as plain HTML5, JavaScript, and TypeScript.
