The Syncfusion PDF Viewer is part of the Essential Study for Flutter from Syncfusion as a commercially licensed package.

In this blog post I’m going to implement a PDF Viewer to compare with the Syncfusion commercial version. Below is using flutter_pdfview which can be added from Pub or using VSCode shortcuts, now for the demo.

Using the package as a library in Flutter

dependencies:
  flutter_pdfview: ^1.2.1

$ flutter packages get

// dart file 
import 'package:flutter_pdfview/flutter_pdfview.dart';

// dart file example
PDFView(
  filePath: path,
  enableSwipe: true,
  swipeHorizontal: true,
  autoSpacing: false,
  pageFling: false,
  onRender: (_pages) {
    setState(() {
      pages = _pages;
      isReady = true;
    });
  },
  onError: (error) {
    print(error.toString());
  },
  onPageError: (page, error) {
    print('$page: ${error.toString()}');
  },
  onViewCreated: (PDFViewController pdfViewController) {
    _controller.complete(pdfViewController);
  },
  onPageChanged: (int page, int total) {
    print('page change: $page/$total');
  },
),

Note: this is a feature to be implemented in Kier Connect.
