Viewer optimized PDF is a unique way of near-instantaneous loading and viewing of remotely stored PDFs regardless of their size or complexity. A Viewer optimized file is an optimized PDF document that allows the Viewer to display a document preview even before all client-side components are loaded. In the past, a Viewer could stream arbitrary large documents for viewing optimization using standard PDF linearization, but we have extended this concept to support fast viewing of complex pages which are slow to render as well.
To optimize a PDF, use the SaveViewerOptimized
function with default or custom settings on desktop or server.
Compress & optimize PDF files
Full sample code shows how to use SaveViewerOptimized
to embed thumbnails with a PDF file which will enable fast rendering in the viewer.
DocPub is a command-line utility which provides an alternative way of generating viewer optimized PDF files.
To create a viewer optimized PDF, use the command docpub -f pdf --viewer_optimized file.pdf
.
The opening of the optimized PDF is no different than opening regular PDF files. By default, the Viewer is able to recognize a PDF that is Viewer optimized and will utilize this enhancement.
