Reader mode, also known as reading or reflow mode, makes the document more flexible and easier to read. Apryse is able to extract the reflowable layout of each page in a PDF document as HTML format, and then combine them into one single view. It also supports zooming to increase the font size and page navigation to jump to a particular page.
Reader mode is available from WebViewer v7.1, and this feature is disabled by default currently. To enable it, you need to set the constructor option fullAPI: true
, and you also need to enable the reader mode button in the UI.
For example:
Click the View Controls
button, then under Page Transition
section click the Reader
button.
Apryse implements reader mode using the webviewer-reading-mode module in the default UI. However this module can be loaded independently outside of WebViewer's UI as well. It takes a PDFDoc object, PDFNet and it can display the document in reader mode in the DOM element you specify.
For example:
The module also supports APIs like goToPage
, setZoom
, etc. More details about the APIs.
