jPDFViewer

jPDFViewer is a smart self-contained Java component aimed at programmers or webmasters looking to integrate a PDF reading tool into their applications or web apps. Being self contain spares the user from having to rely on third-party programs, sparing you some time and effort. Flexibility is another important aspect of the component, as the tool can be deployed on other operating systems like Linux, Unix, and Mac.

jPDFViewer come with a standalone UI that showcases the tool's capabilities. First, one or more PDF documents should be loaded. The files can be sourced from a local drive, a network location, or a URL, depending on one's tasks. PDFs can also come through runtime Java input streams directly from a database.

Control is of the essence when you incorporate multiple services into your product, that is why jPDFViewer relinquishes full control over all documents to the host app. This helps with building up security protocols and restricting access based on whatever rules one imposes.

Reading or viewing PDF files is already established as the tool's main function. In addition to that, one can use it to print PDFs, fill forms, annotate, apply and validate digital signatures, select and search text, and more. On top of that a handful of basic features like zoom, loupe, snapshot pan, and zoom, can be taken advantage of.

To sum things up, jPDFViewer is a developer's tool able to enhance your application or website with a PDF-reading ability. While it sports a standalone interface that is for showcasing purposes only. This is not an end-user program, and shouldn't be deployed as such. Other than that, if you are a programmer in need of such a tool, don't hesitate to give it a try.
