A React component library for viewing PDF documents in the browser, built with TypeScript and React hooks on top of PDF.js. It offers a plugin architecture for layouts, search, thumbnails, and other viewer features.
Use cases
- display pdf documents in a react app
- embed a pdf viewer with toolbar and thumbnails
- view password protected pdfs in the browser
- add text search to a pdf viewer
- render pdfs with server-side rendering
- customize pdf viewer toolbar and theme
- print and download pdfs from a web app
When to choose
- you need a full-featured, customizable PDF viewer in a React application
- you want plugin-based features like search, thumbnails, and table of contents
- you need SSR support, theming, dark mode, or accessibility in a viewer
When to avoid
- you need a free open-source license — commercial use requires purchasing a license
- you are not using React
- you only need to extract or manipulate PDF data rather than display it
