Class Overview

PDFViewCtrl is derived from android.view.ViewGroup and encapsulates a rich set of functionalities for interactive viewing of PDF documents.

PDFViewCtrl makes use of PDFTron's PDFNet library that is compiled as a native library to ensure real-time viewing experience. It provides a comprehensive set of functionalities, including multi-threaded rendering, PDF rendering settings, scrolling, zooming, page navigation, different page viewing modes, coordinates conversion, text selection, text search, etc. In addition, PDFViewCtrl also allows for extension to accommodate a user's specific needs, which can be achieved in one of the following two ways:

  1. Derive from PDFViewCtrl and override its functions such as #onMeasure, #onDraw, #onScroll, etc. However, note that since PDFViewCtrl implements these functions, it is necessary to call PDFViewCtrl's implementations first.

  2. The recommended way is to use PDFViewCtrl's PDFViewCtrl.ToolManager interface. This interface provides a way for users to interact with PDFViewCtrl, including customizing responses to gestures and drawing extra contents on top of the PDF content. In fact, Apryse SDK also ships with a separate library (Tools), that is programmed via this interface. This library utilizes functions offered by PDFNet and implements several ready-to-use UI modules such as annotation editing, text selection, text search, page navigation, etc.

Public Constructors

public PDFViewCtrl (Context context, AttributeSet attrs)

Constructor that is called when inflating a view from XML. This is called when a view is being constructed from an XML file, supplying attributes that were specified in the XML file. This version uses a default style of 0, so the only attribute values applied are those in the Context's Theme and the given AttributeSet.

Parameters
context The Context the view is running in, through which it can access the current theme, resources, etc.
attrs The attributes of the XML tag that is inflating the view.

public PDFViewCtrl (Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle)

Perform inflation from XML and apply a class-specific base style. This constructor of View allows subclasses to use their own base style when they are inflating. For example, a Button class's constructor would call this version of the super class constructor and supply R.attr.buttonStyle for defStyle; this allows the theme's button style to modify all of the base view attributes (in particular its background) as well as the Button class's attributes.

Parameters
context The Context the view is running in, through which it can access the current theme, resources, etc.
attrs The attributes of the XML tag that is inflating the view.
defStyle The default style to apply to this view. If 0, no style will be applied (beyond what is included in the theme). This may either be an attribute resource, whose value will be retrieved from the current theme, or an explicit style resource.

public double[] convScreenPtToCanvasPt (double x, double y)

Converts a point expressed in screen space to a point in (PDF) canvas space.

When converting points, PDFViewCtrl may refer to the following spaces:

  • Screen Space is the virtual area occupied by PDFViewCtrl on a device, originated at its upper-left corner. Note that this space can extend beyond the visible region. Screen Space is in the same scale with the dimensions of android.view.View;
  • Page Space is defined by a PDF page itself, originated at the lower-left corner. Unlike Screen Space, it is independent of how the page is viewed; namely, it does't change with the zoom factor, the scroll position, and etc.
  • (PDF) Canvas Space is defined as the smallest axis-aligned rectangle surrounding all the pages in continuous page presentation mode, or the current page(s) in non-continuous page presentation mode. For example, PagePresentationMode.FACING_CONT will make a wider but shorter Canvas Space than what PagePresentationMode.SINGLE_CONT will do. Note that PDF Canvas Space is in the same scale of Page Space and also independent of zoom factor, scroll position, etc. For simplicity, PDF Canvas Space is referenced to as Canvas Space.
  • Zoomed PDF Canvas Space is similar to PDF Canvas space, but after it is scaled by the current zoom factor, and page gaps are added between pages.
  • View Canvas Space is the virtual region occupied by the android.graphics.Canvas object, the one passed in through the onDraw(Canvas) method. Note that View Canvas Space is in general different from Canvas Space. For example, when PDFViewCtrl is zoomed out so that all the pages are visible, View Canvas Space will be larger than Canvas Space.

For example, if you want to know the coordinates of the upper-left corner of the Canvas Space in the Screen space, you can simply use convCanvasPtToScreenPt(0,0). If you want to calculate the coordinates of the lower-left corner of page 1 in the Screen Space, you can use convPagePtToScreenPt(0, 0, 1). Or if you just want to know the coordinates of the upper left corner of the Screen Space in View Canvas Space, it is simply (getScrollX(), getScrollY()).

Parameters
x x coordinate of the input point
y y coordinate in the input point
Returns
  • Converted point in canvas space.

public double[] convScreenPtToPagePt (double x, double y, int page_num)

y y coordinate in the input point
page_num the page number for the page used as the origin of the destination coordinate system. Pages are indexed starting from one.
Returns
  • Converted point in page space.

public double[] convScreenPtToPagePt (double x, double y)

public void destroy ()

Should be called in android.app.Activity.onDestroy() to destroy PDFViewCtrl and clean up memory and used resources.

public void docLock (boolean cancel_rendering)

Locks the PDFDoc instance used by PDFViewCtrl.

Simultaneous access to a PDFDoc instance is not allowed. Since PDFViewCtrl renders a PDFDoc in a rendering thread, UI access to the same PDFDoc instance should lock the document first and then unlock docUnlock() it afterwards. Threads attempting to access the document will wait in suspended state until the thread that owns the lock calls docUnlock().

Parameters
cancel_rendering If true, rendering thread is canceled first before trying to lock the document. This ensures a quick return from this function. Otherwise, this function can halt the UI and the app may be unresponsive before the rendering thread finishes. If the rendering thread is canceled, unlocking the document docUnlock() will restart the rendering thread.
Throws
PDFNetException PDFNet exception

public void docLock (boolean cancel_rendering, PDFViewCtrl.LockRunnable runnable)

Synchronously runs the code block defined in the Runnable while holding a write lock on the PDFDoc instance used by PDFViewCtrl. Will unlock when the code block is completed. Avoid running asynchronous operations in the code block as a write lock is no longer held for such operations

Simultaneous access to a PDFDoc instance is not allowed. Since PDFViewCtrl renders a PDFDoc in a rendering thread, UI access to the same PDFDoc instance should lock the document first and then unlock docUnlock() it afterwards. Threads attempting to access the document will wait in suspended state until the thread that owns the lock calls docUnlock().

Parameters
cancel_rendering If true, rendering thread is canceled first before trying to lock the document. This ensures a quick return from this function. Otherwise, this function can halt the UI and the app may be unresponsive before the rendering thread finishes. If the rendering thread is canceled, unlocking the document docUnlock() will restart the rendering thread.
runnable containing the code to run with write lock
Throws
Exception propagated exception from the LockRunnable or from locking

public void docLockRead (PDFViewCtrl.LockRunnable runnable)

Synchronously runs the code block defined in the Runnable while holding a read lock on the PDFDoc instance used by PDFViewCtrl. Will unlock when the code block is completed. Avoid running asynchronous operations in the code block as a read lock is no longer held for such operations.

Locks the currently open document to prevent competing write threads (using docLock(boolean)) from accessing the document at the same time. Other reader threads however, will be allowed to access the document. Threads attempting to obtain write access to the document will wait in suspended state until the thread that owns the lock calls docUnlockRead().

Note: To avoid deadlocks obtaining a write lock while holding a read lock is not permitted and will throw an exception. If this situation is encountered please either unlock the read lock before the write lock is obtained or acquire a write lock (rather than read lock) in the first place.

Parameters
runnable containing the code to run with write lock
Throws
Exception propagated exception from the LockRunnable or from locking

public void docLockRead ()

Locks the PDFDoc instance used by PDFViewCtrl for reading.

Locks the currently open document to prevent competing write threads (using docLock(boolean)) from accessing the document at the same time. Other reader threads however, will be allowed to access the document. Threads attempting to obtain write access to the document will wait in suspended state until the thread that owns the lock calls docUnlockRead().

Note: To avoid deadlocks obtaining a write lock while holding a read lock is not permitted and will throw an exception. If this situation is encountered please either unlock the read lock before the write lock is obtained or acquire a write lock (rather than read lock) in the first place.

PDFNetException

public void openUrlAsync (String url, String cachePdf, String password, PDFViewCtrl.HTTPRequestOptions options)

Sets the PDF document, from a URL, that is to be displayed. If successful, PDFViewCtrl will download the PDF document and display it. If the PDF file is linearized, PDFViewCtrl will download it incrementally while displaying it; otherwise, PDFViewCtrl will show blank pages until the entire document is downloaded.

Since this function starts the actual download work in a worker thread, it returns quickly to avoid blocking UI. addDocumentDownloadListener(DocumentDownloadListener) can be used to listen to the download result, e.g., FAILED.

Note:

Parameters
url the URL of the document to open. It supports HTTP and HTTPS.
cachePdf This function will use downloaded data to construct a PDF in this location. If null or blank, the PDF will be stored in a temporary location. If the path points to the result of a previous call to this function for this particular URL, then PDFViewCtrl will resume that download. This should be a full (non-relative) path.

Note that if disk caching is disabled this file will not be used.
password the password used to open the document
options HTTP request options to use with every HTTP request, may be null
Throws
PDFNetException

Note that onLowMemory() is called when a user is running too many applications and the OS needs to recover the memory from them. Exceeding your own application's VM heap quota does NOT cause onLowMemory() to be called. For this sake, it is a good practice in your code to catch OutOfMemoryError exception and then call this method.

public void purgeMemoryDueToOOM ()

it is a good practice in your code to catch OutOfMemoryError exception and then call this method.

Throws
PDFNetException

public void setRenderedContentCacheSize (long allowed_max)

Sets the suggested memory size of the rendered content.

PDFViewCtrl keeps invisible content in order to achieve smoother viewing experience; however, this increases memory usage. Android sets an upper bound on the VM heap size allowed for an app. By default, PDFViewCtrl is set to use a quarter of that amount for keeping visible and invisible content. Based on the memory footprint of your app, you may want to customize it.

The following code shows a sample usage of this function: 

 long allowed_max = Runtime.getRuntime().maxMemory() / (1024 * 1024);
 setRenderedContentCacheSize((long) (allowed_max * 0.25)); //should NOT use close to allowed_max

Note: If you want to minimize the heap memory usage at the cost of viewing experience quality, you can set allowed_max to 0 and PDFViewCtrl will not keep any invisible content. Also note that this function only controls the memory usage of VM heap size by PDFViewCtrl, but not the native memory that PDFViewCtrl might use.

On Android 3.0 and above, you can increase the allowed heap size of an app by setting android:largeHeap="true" in the app's manifest file.

Parameters
allowed_max the allowed heap memory usage in MB
Throws
PDFNetException

public void setVScrollPos (int pos)

Sets the vertical scroll position. The position should be a number in the range between 0 and getCanvasHeight(). The 'pos' parameter is expressed in the canvas coordinate system.

Note: This call is the same as View.setScrollY().

Parameters
pos the new vertical scroll position

public void setVerticalAlign (int align)

Sets the vertical alignment used for rendering pages within the view.

Parameters
align an integer specifying the vertical alignment. Depending of whether align is positive, negative, or zero, pages will be bottom, top or center aligned:

  • align == 0: pages are centered
  • align > 0: pages are bottom aligned
Throws
PDFNetException

public static void setViewerCache (SDFDoc document, int max_cache_size, boolean on_disk)

Sets the cache parameters of the page cache on disk (which caches content streams and mipmapped images) for this specific document. These parameters will override the default cache parameters set by PDFNet.setViewerCache(). Note that if this function is called after the document has been rasterized, it has no effect.

Note: Setting max_cache_size to zero will disable the cache. Also, once this cache is used, setCaching(boolean) will be ineffective.

Parameters
max_cache_size The maximum size, in bytes, of the entire document's page cache. The maximum cache size is 100 MB.
on_disk Whether or not store the cache on disk.
Throws
PDFNetException PDFNet exception

public boolean setZoom (double zoom)

Sets the zoom factor and re-render. This function zooms to the center of the screen region.

Note: This function is similar to setZoom(double, boolean), but with the second parameter being false.

Parameters
zoom New zoom factor used to display the page content.
Returns
  • true if successful, false otherwise.

public boolean setZoom (double zoom, boolean use_snapshot)

Sets the zoom factor and re-render. This function zooms to the center of the screen region.

Parameters
zoom New zoom factor used to display the page content.
use_snapshot If true, PDFViewCtrl takes a snapshot of the current client area and shows it before the content after zooming is ready.
Returns
  • true if successful, false otherwise.

public boolean setZoom (int x, int y, double zoom)

Sets the zoom factor and re-render using the given coordinate (x,y) as a zoom center.

The zoom center (x,y) is represented in the screen space, whose origin is at the upper-left corner of the screen region.

Note: This function is similar to setZoom(int, int, double, boolean), but with the last parameter being false.

Parameters
x The horizontal coordinate of the center in screen space.
y The vertical coordinate of the center in screen space.
zoom New zoom factor used to display the page content.
Returns
  • true if successful, false otherwise.

public boolean setZoom (int x, int y, double zoom, boolean use_snapshot)

Sets the zoom factor and re-render using the given coordinate (x,y) as a zoom center.

The zoom center (x,y) is represented in the screen space, whose origin is at the upper-left corner of the screen region.

Parameters
x The horizontal coordinate of the center in screen space.
y The vertical coordinate of the center in screen space.
zoom New zoom factor used to display the page content.
use_snapshot If true, PDFViewCtrl takes a snapshot of the current client area and shows it before the content after zooming is ready.
Returns
  • true if successful, false otherwise.

public boolean setZoom (int x, int y, double zoom, boolean use_snapshot, boolean animate)

public void setZoomEnabled (boolean enable)

public void setZoomLimits (PDFViewCtrl.ZoomLimitMode zoomLimitMode, double min_zoom, double max_zoom)

Sets the minimum and maximum zoom bounds of PDFViewCtrl.

Note: If RELATIVE is used, min_zoom and max_zoom are relative to the zoom level when the current page is displayed in the mode set by setPageRefViewMode(PageViewMode). For instance, if min_zoom = 1.0 and max_zoom = 3, it means that the minimum zoom allowed by PDFViewCtrl is the same as the zoom when a page is fit and the maximum zoom allowed is three times that when the page is fit. PDFViewCtrl limits the minimum zoom bound to 0.01 and the maximum zoom bound to 500.0.

Parameters
zoomLimitMode Defines how the minimum and maximum zoom bounds are used.
min_zoom the minimum zoom bound
max_zoom the maximum zoom bound
Throws
PDFNetException

public void setZoomingInAddingAnnotationEnabled (boolean enabled)

public void setupThumbnails (boolean use_embedded, boolean generate_at_runtime, boolean use_disk_cache, int thumb_max_side_length, long max_abs_cache_size, double max_perc_cache_size)

Specify the different thumbnail settings for the viewer.

Thumbnail view is used before a PDF page is fully rendered. If generate_at_runtime is enabled, PDFViewCtrl generates thumbnail views at runtime. If a PDF file already contains the thumbnail views, runtime thumb view generation can be turned off, which is more efficient.

If generate_at_runtime is enabled, the thumb_max_side_length will be used as a reference to calculate the thumbnail resolution.

Note: High values of thumb_max_side_length will require more heap memory from the VM, and this can lead to some 'out of memory exceptions' due to the nature of the core and how bitmaps are natively managed by Android. You may want to configure your application to use a larger heap in the manifest file if you need to push this setting to higher values.

Parameters
use_embedded Enables or disables using thumbnails embedded in the PDF document as a preview of the rendered page. Default is enabled.
generate_at_runtime Enables or disables generating thumbnails at runtime. Default is enabled.
use_disk_cache Enables or disables caching thumbnails in a temporary disk file. Default is disabled.
thumb_max_side_length The maximum size, in pixels, of a dimension of generated thumbnails. Pass zero to use the default internal value. Default value is 0.
max_abs_cache_size The absolute maximum size on disk, in bytes, for the temporary thumbnail cache. Default value is 200 MB.
max_perc_cache_size The maximum percentage of free disk space, in the range 0 - 1.0, that the cache can take up. Default is 0.4 (40%).
Throws
PDFNetException

public void showAnnotation (Annot annot)

Enable rendering of a particular annotation. Only has an effect if HideAnnotation() has previously been called on the same annot.

Parameters
annot The annotation object to resume rendering.

public boolean showRect (int page_num, Rect rect)

Adjusts the viewing area to fit a rectangle on a specified page. Rectangle must be specified in page space. This will adjust current page and zoom appropriately.

Parameters
page_num specified page number
rect the rectangle to fit in
Returns
  • true if successful, false otherwise.
Throws
PDFNetException

public boolean smartZoom (int x, int y, boolean animate)

public boolean smartZoom (int x, int y)

Sets the zoom factor to a new value using the given pixel coordinate (x,y) to find an intersecting paragraph.

The width of the paragraph helps to determine the zoom value, center of the paragraph is used as a zoom center. Paragraph has to contain more than one line and be wider than 1/5th of a page width. When performing a smart zoom would not significantly change the zoom level, it will be ignored.

The zoom center (x,y) is represented in the screen space, whose origin is at the upper-left corner of the screen region.

Parameters
x the horizontal coordinate to look for a text block.
y the vertical coordinate to look for a text block.
Returns
  • true if successful, false if no zoom was performed.

public PointF snapToNearestInDoc (double x, double y)

Throws
PDFNetException PDFNet exception

public void updatePageLayout ()

Updates the page layout within the view. This function must be called after document page sequence is modified (such as when a page is being added to or removed from a document) or after changes to page dimensions (e.g. after a page is rotated or resized).

Throws
PDFNetException

public void waitForRendering (int milliseconds)

Waits about specified milliseconds or until the visible region is done rendering, whichever is less.

Note: When PDFViewCtrl has to re-render its visible region, say after update() is called, it might be desirable to call this method so that before #onDraw(Canvas) is called by OS, the new content will already be ready. This helps to avoid flickering.

If docUnlock() also has to be called, it should be called before this function.

Parameters
milliseconds milli-seconds to wait up to

public void waitForRendering ()

Waits about 1500 milliseconds or until the visible region is done rendering, whichever is less. Please refer to waitForRendering(int) for more details.
