Example
<template>
<!-- used `style="height: 100vh;"` because without it in the Firefox 89 and Chrome 91 (June 2021) the `vue-pdf-app` is not rendering on the page, just empty space without any errors (since `vue-pdf-app` does not have height and it is the top tag in the generated markup ) -->
<!-- or you can just wrap `vue-pdf-app` in <div> tag and set height for it via CSS (like in `Script tag (unpkg)` example below) -->

new :id-config
- Description: If default toolbar UI doesn't suite you it is possible to build custom toolbar. The prop contains elements ID to which to bind functionality. If element ID is specified in this prop appropriate button will be hidden in a default toolbar. May not work with UI framework components. That is because pdfjs internally manages attributes specific to a certain HTML element (for instance pdfjs toggles
disabled
attribute of a button but it won't if a div is used instead of a button). So it is better to use native HTML element specified as recommended in ID config specification below. Four slots are specially designed to build custom toolbar (are situated near a pdf page):viewer-header, viewer-prepend, viewer-append, viewer-footer
(refer slots API). It is also possible to use other slots or elements outside vue-pdf-app. - Type:
ID config (see below)
- Required:
false
- Usage:
<template>
<div>
<button :id="idConfig.zoomOut" type="button">Zoom out</button>
<vue-pdf-app :id-config="idConfig">
<template #viewer-prepend>
<div class="viewer-prepend">
<button :id="idConfig.zoomIn" type="button">Zoom in</button>

Icons customization
To use default icons import "vue-pdf-app/dist/icons/main.css";
.
To use custom icons you have to implement icons.css:
.vue-pdf-app-icon::before,
.vue-pdf-app-icon::after {
font-family: "your font family";
}
.vue-pdf-app-icon.zoom-out::before {
content: "icon code";
}
Light/dark themes
Algorithm of theme apply
![Algorithm of theme apply](https://github.com/sandanat/vue-pdf-app/raw/master/readme/algorithm-of-theme-apply.jpg)
Toggle theme button is not implemented by default. It's up to you to decide where to place it. The button can be implemented with slots:
<vue-pdf-app>
<template #footer="{ toggleTheme }">
<button @click="toggleTheme" type="button">Toggle theme</button>
</template>
</vue-pdf-app>
Localized panel
English is the default language for panel.
Use <link rel="resource" type="application/l10n" href="path-to-localization-file">
in your html for localization.
See localization file examples.
Examples
Script tag (unpkg)
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />

</div>
<script>
new Vue({
components: {

}
}).$mount("#app");
</script>

import VuePdfApp from "vue-pdf-app";
import { Component, Vue } from "vue-property-decorator";
@Component({
components: {
VuePdfApp
}
})
export default class App extends Vue {}
</script>
Lazy loading
PDFJS is a huge package (see the library size table above). So use lazy loading to split your bundle into small pieces.
<template>
<div id="app">
<vue-pdf-app></vue-pdf-app>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import "vue-pdf-app/dist/icons/main.css";
import Loader from "./components/Loader.vue";
export default {
name: "App",
components: {
"vue-pdf-app": () => ({
component: new Promise((res) => {
return setTimeout(
() => res(import(/* webpackChunkName: "pdf-viewer" */ "vue-pdf-app")),
4000
);
}),
loading: Loader
})
}
};
</script>
PDFJS interaction
You can interact with pdfjs library when pdf is opened via open
event.
<template>
<div id="app">
<div id="pdf-wrapper">
<vue-pdf-app pdf="/sample.pdf" @open="openHandler"></vue-pdf-app>
</div>
<div id="info">
<h1>PDF info:</h1>
<div v-for="item in info" :key="item.name">
<span>{{ item.name }}: {{ item.value }}</span>
<br />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import "vue-pdf-app/dist/icons/main.css";
import VuePdfApp from "vue-pdf-app";
export default {
name: "App",
components: {
VuePdfApp
},
data() {
return {
info: []
};
},
methods: {
async openHandler(pdfApp) {
this.info = [];
const info = await pdfApp.pdfDocument
.getMetadata()
.catch(console.error.bind(console));
if (!info) return;
const props = Object.keys(info.info);
props.forEach((prop) => {
const obj = {
name: prop,
value: info.info[prop]
};
this.info.push(obj);
});
}
}
};
</script>
