We at CIGNEX developed online PDF Viewer Portlet using ICEFaces and ICEPdf frameworks. It is based on ICEPDF reference implementation. This PDF Viewer portlet provides following features.
- It is integrated with liferay's document library. So if we add this portlet on any community/organization page. It allows us to browse pdf documents available in document library.
- It allows us to Zoom in & out pdf pages. We can also rotate the pages if we want.
- It also allows us to view the portlet in full screen mode.
- It provides quick links to recently browsed documents by the user.
- It allows us to directly jump on bookmarked page if pdf document contains any bookmarks.
- We can configure maximum size of recently accessed files through preferences mode.
- We can easily configure the portlet to display documents from server file-system instead of document library. We just need to set the root folder path through preferences mode.
