B4A Library PDFium - Pdfview2

This is a wrap for a PDF-View which is based on PDFium.
It is based on these two Github-Projects: Pdfium and Android PDF-View
The PDF-View is based on Pdfium 1.9

The Library, resp. the Natives inside, are 64bit Compliant btw.

It supports Horizontal and Vertical scrolling, Pagesnap.

Due to the Size of the native .so Files the library is big (18mb) and can be downloaded from my Dropbox.
The Example is to big (2mb) too so it is available on Dropbox too.

Not with this Library.

Can you please suggest me PDF viewer library with search function and with possibility to open password protected PDF files.
The only library ,witch I found has required functions, was PDFViewer (by Icefairy333) - reworked by DonManfred, but it's pretty old, I couldn't make it work properly.

And thanks for respond!

 

[DonManfred]

was PDFViewer (by Icefairy333) - reworked by DonManfred, but it's pretty old, I couldn't make it work properly

Do not use this lib on neweser Devices! It will not work as the library does not include a 64 bit .so File

Can you please suggest me PDF viewer library with search function and with possibility to open password protected PDF files.

I don´t know one.

 

[stevenindon]

Hi all,

How can i clear a loaded pdf in PDFview? I tried PDFView1.RemoveView but seems that it removes the view panel... I have search through the forum but couldn't find a solution for this.

 

[DonManfred]

How can i clear a loaded pdf in PDFview?

i don´t see any suiteable method in the library.
I would just set the view complete new or load a small dummy.pdf (empty page) into it to clear it.

 

[hayk]

Could someone help our community, to add "search" ability to "pdfium" library or help to wrap and share new PDF viewer library, which will able to open password protected files, will be able to search text in PDF document, will be free licensed and . Required library will be useful for all our community.

Here are Top 5 Android PDF Library/SDK according Google
PDFTron Mobile PDF SDK. Great PDF rendering on Android: Rendered PDFs are accurate, optimized, high quality and robust. ...

• PDF Toolkit - PDF SDK for Android. ...
• PDF JET. ...
• FOXIT Embedded PDF SDK for Android. ...
• Apache PDFBox.

Ready to support developer by ? DONATION!

SPDFkit is pretty good library, Dropbox uses this library.

Unfortunately only one of them is free, PDFBox.
I wrote a wrapper for PDFBox for B4J already.

Based on this Github-Project i am actually doing a Android wrap for PDFBox.

Maybe, we can help you somehow, to speed up the process ??

I'm offering 200$ for B4A PDFBox library, which will be able to open password protected pdf files & will have search function. And will be happy to share it with B4X community.
Offer is valid for 2 months after this post

do you have example PDFs which you want to search into and/or which are password-protected?
Can you provide them?

 

[hayk]

Thank you very much for your support!
PDF example file you can download from here, it is just a regular PDF file with preview password protection. password is "123".

- "Search" like in Adobe PDF android app, text matches are getting highlighted & using arrows possible jump to pages with other matches. like in upper image.
- Password must be possible to inject trough code, like in PDFium library .

PDFium library is also not bad, adding search text capabilities to this library will be good enough.

Thank you very much for your respond.
PDF file example you can find here. It's just an preview password protected PDF file. The password is "123".

Features like in Adobe PDF Android app (see attached "1.jpg") will be great. Matched texts are getting highlighted and possible jump to next match. Two directional ( using arrows "<" & ">" like in adobe pdf app) match highlighting would be great. Also events like "on_load_Complete" , "on_Tap" , "on_Page_Changed" , "on_Error" would be great too.

PDFium library is also not bad, adding search text capabilities to this library will be good enough.

 

[DonManfred]

Matched texts are getting highlighted

This will not happen with PDFium!
I can build a searchmethod (if the pdf is searchable at all. It will not work with PDFs based on Images. The content must be TEXT) but i am not able to change pdfium at all.

searchmethod as a function or library? It gonna work with 3rd party pdf viewer? Or a wrap pdfbox for B4A?

My friend, if you are taking the job, I can pay you 20% in advance.

that´s not the problem. Problem with the newest Github-project for pdfbox-android is that there are Resources inside the aar which not get found when using the aar in B4A.

In Android Studio it gets implemented in another way. Internal the library is using an AndroidAsset Manager which works in an AS-Projects.
But i can´t get it working in B4A as of now...

Still investigating what needs to be done :-(

Ok, I'll wait. Thank you.

The pdfbox library has a method to extract text from a Document-Page.
Based on this you can build your own searchmethod.

Pdfbox is not a PDF-Viewer. It is a PDF-Reader, manipulator, Creator.

Or a wrap pdfbox for B4A?
