Android Question How to read and display pages of PDF file in B4XPages

[PhilNewbie]

I want to read and display pages from a pdf file in my B4XPages app.
I have searched the forum and have found various references to PDFRenderer but can't see which library that is in or whether it applies the B4XPages. Also, seen an example with a
Dim abc as PDFDocument but that gets highlighted as a unknown type.

Can someone tell me if this is possible and if so, how to do it?

Thanks
Phil

There is no such thing. There is nothing special with B4XPages. All B4A libraries will work in a B4A B4XPages project.

Ah ok. So which is the current best library to use for this purpose?

Thanks

The available libraries are listed here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/pages/results/?query=pdf&prefix=1,2,3,17,24,29&product=b4a

I'm not familiar with them so can't say more.

Thanks Erel.
That's excellent. I'll check them out.
