npm install ng2-pdf-viewer
Partial Ivy compilated library bundles.
npm install ng2-pdf-viewer@^7.0.0
npm install ng2-pdf-viewer@~3.0.8
In case you're using systemjs

Add PdfViewerModule
to your module's imports
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';

class AppModule {}
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);
And then use it in your component
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'example-app',
template: `
<pdf-viewer [src]="pdfSrc"
[render-text]="true"
[original-size]="false"
style="width: 400px; height: 500px"

})
export class AppComponent {

Property | Type | Required |

(after-load-complete) | callback | Optional |
Get PDF information with callback
First define callback function "callBackFn" in your controller,
callBackFn(pdf: PDFDocumentProxy) {
// do anything with "pdf"
}
And then use it in your template:
(after-load-complete)="callBackFn($event)"
Property | Type | Required |
---|---|---|
(page-rendered) | callback | Optional |
Get event when a page is rendered. Called for every page rendered.
Define callback in your component:
pageRendered(e: CustomEvent) {
console.log('(page-rendered)', e);
}
And then bind it to <pdf-viewer>
:
(page-rendered)="pageRendered($event)"
Property | Type | Required |
---|---|---|
(pages-initialized) | callback | Optional |
Get event when the pages are initialized.
Define callback in your component:
pageInitialized(e: CustomEvent) {
console.log('(pages-initialized)', e);
}
And then bind it to <pdf-viewer>
:
(pages-initialized)="pageInitialized($event)"
Property | Type | Required |
---|---|---|
(text-layer-rendered) | callback | Optional |
Get event when a text layer is rendered.
Define callback in your component:
textLayerRendered(e: CustomEvent) {
console.log('(text-layer-rendered)', e);
}
And then bind it to <pdf-viewer>
:
(text-layer-rendered)="textLayerRendered($event)"
Property | Type | Required |
---|---|---|
(error) | callback | Optional |
Error handling callback
Define callback in your component's class
onError(error: any) {
// do anything
}
Then add it to pdf-component
in component's template
(error)="onError($event)"
Property | Type | Required |
---|---|---|
(on-progress) | callback | Optional |
Loading progress callback - provides progress information total
and loaded
bytes. Is called several times during pdf loading phase.
Define callback in your component's class
onProgress(progressData: PDFProgressData) {
// do anything with progress data. For example progress indicator
}
Then add it to pdf-component
in component's template
(on-progress)="onProgress($event)"
In your html
template add input
:
<input (change)="onFileSelected()" type="file" id="file">
and then add onFileSelected
method to your component:
onFileSelected() {
let $img: any = document.querySelector('#file');
if (typeof (FileReader) !== 'undefined') {
let reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = (e: any) => {
this.pdfSrc = e.target.result;
};
reader.readAsArrayBuffer($img.files[0]);
}
}
By default the worker
is loaded from cdn.jsdelivr.net
.
In your code update path
to the worker to be for example /pdf.worker.js
(window as any).pdfWorkerSrc = '/pdf.worker.js';
This should be set before pdf-viewer
component is rendered.
If you ever have a (super rare) edge case where you run in an environment that multiple components are somehow loaded within the same web page, sharing the same window, but using different versions of pdf.worker, support has been added. You can do the above, except that you can append the specific version of pdfjs required and override the custom path just for that version. This way setting the global window var won't conflict.
(window as any)["pdfWorkerSrc2.14.305"] = '/pdf.worker.js';
Use eventBus
for the search functionality.
In your component's ts file:
- Add reference to
pdf-viewer
component, - then when needed execute
search()
linke this:
@ViewChild(PdfViewerComponent) private pdfComponent: PdfViewerComponent;
search(stringToSearch: string) {
this.pdfComponent.eventBus.dispatch('find', {
query: stringToSearch, type: 'again', caseSensitive: false, findPrevious: undefined, highlightAll: true, phraseSearch: true
});
}
If this project help you reduce time to develop, you can give me a cup of tea :)
