The best tools for developers
Fast integration
The Foxit PDF SDK ActiveX is a visual programming component that offers PDF display and annotation capabilities with minimal resource demand and small re-distribution size. It uses the same core technology as the popular and proven Foxit Reader; therefore, it can display PDF files quickly, accurately, and with high quality. Allowing an easy integration into a wide range of applications, it is designed for a broad spectrum of users who want to develop PDF display and annotation capabilities.
import FoxIT import FoxIT // Create a `Document`. // This is the container for your PDF file. let documentURL = Bundle.main.url(forResource: “Document”, withExtension: “pdf”)! let document = Document(url: documentURL) // Create a `PDFViewController`. This will present and manage the PSPDFKit UI. let pdfController = PDFViewController(document: document) // Present the `PDFViewController` to enable the toolbar. present(UINavigationController(rootViewController: pdfController), animated: true)
