This XAML control has no external dependency on the desktop or anything from Adobe to view or save files. Content is parsed and rendered as native WinRT elements.</p> </blockquote> <ul> <li><b>Multi-touch Gesture Support</b></li> </ul> <blockquote style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px" dir="ltr"> <p>Users can slide the pages to scroll as well as pinch to zoom the document. Zooming can better legibility for reading content on a small screen.</p> </blockquote> <ul> <li><b>Horizontal Orientation</b></li> </ul> <blockquote style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px" dir="ltr"> <p>The <a href="C1.Xaml.PdfViewer~C1.Xaml.PdfViewer.C1PdfViewer.html">C1PdfViewer</a> control supports both Vertical and Horizontal orientation. Just set the <a href="C1.Xaml.PdfViewer~C1.Xaml.PdfViewer.C1PdfViewer~Orientation.html">Orientation</a> property.</p> </blockquote> <ul> <li><b>Encrypted File Support</b></li> </ul> <blockquote style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px" dir="ltr"> <p>The <a href="C1.Xaml.PdfViewer~C1.Xaml.PdfViewer.C1PdfViewer.html">C1PdfViewer</a> control supports viewing encrypted files. The <a href="C1.Xaml.PdfViewer~C1.Xaml.PdfViewer.C1PdfViewer~LoadDocument.html">C1PdfViewer.LoadDocument</a> method has an optional password parameter to view encrypted files.</p> </blockquote> <ul> <li><b>PDF Specification Support</b></li> </ul> <blockquote style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px" dir="ltr"> <p><b>C1PdfViewer</b> supports a subset of the PDF 1.5 specification. There are a few important limitations including encryption, special fonts, and rare image formats. Documents that use non-supported content will still render, but the formatting may be incorrect. It is recommended to use <a href="C1.Xaml.PdfViewer~C1.Xaml.PdfViewer.C1PdfViewer.html">C1PdfViewer</a> in a controlled environment where the features used by your PDF files can be tested before being used. The full list of limitations can be found in the documentation.</p> </blockquote> <ul> <li><b>Get Pages from PDF</b></li> </ul> <blockquote style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px" dir="ltr"> <p>After loading a PDF, you can obtain a list of its pages as <b>FrameworkElement</b>s to customize how the user views each page. This enables a lot more flexibility in working with existing PDF documents. Just call the <b>GetPages</b> method. For more information on how to use the GetPages method see the <a href="http://our.componentone.com/2013/02/12/printing-with-pdfviewer-for-winrt/" target="_blank">Printing with PDFViewer</a> tutorial.</p> </blockquote> <ul> <li><b>Asynchronous Text Search Support</b></li> </ul> <blockquote style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px" dir="ltr"> <p>The asynchronous text search support in <a href="C1.Xaml.PdfViewer~C1.Xaml.PdfViewer.C1PdfViewer.html">C1PdfViewer</a> gives much faster search results by highlighting the text as soon as it is found. The search starts from the current page to end page, and then from end page to current page. The asynchronous text search support is especially important in WinRT applications for improved performance.</p> </blockquote> <a name="seealsobookmark"></a> <div class="SectionHeading" id="seealsoSectionHeading"><span class="SectionHeadingIcon"><!-- --></span><span class="SectionHeadingText">See Also</span></div><div id="seealsoSectionContent" class="SectionContent"><h4 class="SeeAlsoSubHeading">Quick Start</h4><div class="SeeAlsoLink"> <a href="PdfViewerforWinRTXAMLQuickStart.html">Quick Start</a></div> </div> </div> <div id="FooterContent"> <p> </p><p> </p><hr style="height: 1px"><p>Copyright (c) <script type="text/javascript"> var theDate=new Date() document.write(theDate.getFullYear()) </script> GrapeCity, inc.
