How to Use pdf.js [closed]
There is documentation available on their github readme. They cite the following example code:
/* -*- Mode: Java; tab-width: 2; indent-tabs-mode: nil; c-basic-offset: 2 -*- *//* vim: set shiftwidth=2 tabstop=2 autoindent cindent expandtab: *///// See README for overview//'use strict';//// Fetch the PDF document from the URL using promises//PDFJS.getDocument('helloworld.pdf').then(function(pdf) { // Using promise to fetch the page pdf.getPage(1).then(function(page) { var scale = 1.5; var viewport = page.getViewport(scale); // // Prepare canvas using PDF page dimensions // var canvas = document.getElementById('the-canvas'); var context = canvas.getContext('2d'); canvas.height = viewport.height; canvas.width = viewport.width; // // Render PDF page into canvas context // var renderContext = { canvasContext: context, viewport: viewport }; page.render(renderContext); });});
Try Google'ing pdf.js documentation
/* create the PDF document */var doc = new pdf();doc.text(20, 20, 'hello, I am PDF.');doc.text(20, 30, 'i was created in the browser using javascript.');doc.text(20, 40, 'i can also be created from node.js');/* Optional - set properties on the document */doc.setProperties({ title: 'A sample document created by pdf.js', subject: 'PDFs are kinda cool, i guess', author: 'Marak Squires', keywords: 'pdf.js, javascript, Marak, Marak Squires', creator: 'pdf.js'});doc.addPage();doc.setFontSize(22);doc.text(20, 20, 'This is a title');doc.setFontSize(16); doc.text(20, 30, 'This is some normal sized text underneath.');var fileName = "testFile"+new Date().getSeconds()+".pdf";var pdfAsDataURI = doc.output('datauri', {"fileName":fileName});
NOTE: the "pdf.js" project mentioned here is https://github.com/Marak/pdf.js, and has been deprecated since this answer was posted. @Treffynnon's answer is about the still-active Mozilla project (https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js) that most searchers will be looking for.
