I haven't been able to spend any real time on this for a long time now, and must face the fact I'm not in a position to properly support this project.\n\nI understand that even though I haven't been able to spend time, other developers have stepped in helping out answering issues, and archiving this project will make it more difficult finding help using PdfiumViewer. I'm sorry for this inconvenience.\n\nTogether with archiving this project, I will also be archiving the [PdfiumBuild](https://github.com/pvginkel/PdfiumBuild) project. I'll make a number of successful builds available in the PdfiumBuild repository for anyone who needs them, but the build server will be shutdown as part of archiving these projects.\n\nI've had a great time developing this project and helping you out using this project, and I'm sad I have to now close this down. I hope PdfiumViewer has been of value to you. The source code and NuGet packages won't be going anywhere, so keep using them if they're of value to you.\n\n## Introduction\n\nPdfiumViewer is a PDF viewer based on the PDFium project.\n\nPdfiumViewer provides a number of components to work with PDF files:\n\n* PdfDocument is the base class used to render PDF documents;\n\n* PdfRenderer is a WinForms control that can render a PdfDocument;\n\n* PdfiumViewer is a WinForms control that hosts a PdfRenderer control and\n  adds a toolbar to save the PDF file or print it.\n\n## Compatibility\n\nThe PdfiumViewer library has been tested with Windows XP and Windows 8, and\nis fully compatible with both. However, the native PDFium libraries with V8\nsupport do not support Windows XP. See below for instructions on how to\nreference the native libraries.\n\n## Using the library\n\nThe PdfiumViewer control requires native PDFium libraries. These are not included\nin the PdfiumViewer NuGet package. See the [Installation instructions](https://github.com/pvginkel/PdfiumViewer/wiki/Installation-instructions)\nWiki page for more information on how to add these.\n\n## Note on the `PdfViewer` control\n\nThe PdfiumViewer library primarily consists out of three components:\n\n* The `PdfViewer` control. This control provides a host for the `PdfRenderer`\n  control and has a default toolbar with limited functionality;\n* The `PdfRenderer` control. This control implements the raw PDF renderer.\n  This control displays a PDF document, provides zooming and scrolling\n  functionality and exposes methods to perform more advanced actions;\n* The `PdfDocument` class provides access to the PDF document and wraps\n  the Pdfium library.\n\nThe `PdfViewer` control should only be used when you have a very simple use\ncase and where the buttons available on the toolbar provide enough functionality\nfor you. This toolbar will not be extended with new buttons or with functionality\nto hide buttons. The reason for this is that the `PdfViewer` control is just\nmeant to get you started. If you need more advanced functionality, you should\ncreate your own control with your own toolbar, e.g. by starting out with\nthe `PdfViewer` control. Also, because people currently are already using the\n`PdfViewer` control, adding more functionality to this toolbar would be\na breaking change. See [issue #41](https://github.com/pvginkel/PdfiumViewer/issues/41)\nfor more information.\n\n## Building PDFium\n\nInstructions to build the PDFium library can be found on the [Building PDFium](https://github.com/pvginkel/PdfiumViewer/wiki/Building-PDFium)\nwiki page. However, if you are just looking to use the PdfiumViewer component\nor looking for a compiled version of PDFium, these steps are not required.\nNuGet packages with precompiled PDFium libraries are made available for\nusage with PdfiumViewer. See the chapter on **Using the library** for more\ninformation.\n\nAlternatively, the [PdfiumBuild](https://github.com/pvginkel/PdfiumBuild) project\nis provided to automate building PDFium. This project contains scripts to\nbuild PdfiumViewer specific versions of the PDFium library. This project\nis configured on a build server to compile PDFium daily. Please refer to\nthe [PdfiumBuild](https://github.com/pvginkel/PdfiumBuild) project page\nfor the location of the output of the build server. The PdfiumViewer specific\nlibraries are located in the `PdfiumViewer-...` target directories.\n\n## Bugs\n\nBugs should be reported through github at\n[http://github.com/pvginkel/PdfiumViewer/issues](http://github.com/pvginkel/PdfiumViewer/issues).\n\n## License\n\nPdfiumViewer is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license. See the license details for how PDFium is licensed.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpvginkel%2FPdfiumViewer","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpvginkel%2FPdfiumViewer","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpvginkel%2FPdfiumViewer/lists"}
