PDF Renderer #

Flutter Plugin to render PDF pages as images on Web, MacOs 10.11+, Android 5.0+, iOS and Windows.

We also support the package for easy display PDF documents native_pdf_view

Getting Started #

In your flutter project add the dependency:

pub package

dependencies:
  native_pdf_renderer: any

For web add lines in index.html before importing main.dart.js:
note that the files have different names

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/pdfjs-dist@2.7.570/build/pdf.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  pdfjsLib.GlobalWorkerOptions.workerSrc = "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/pdfjs-dist@2.7.570/build/pdf.worker.min.js";
  pdfRenderOptions = {
    cMapUrl: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/pdfjs-dist@2.7.570/cmaps/',
    cMapPacked: true,
  }
</script>

for windows the pdfium version used can be overridden by the base flutter application by adding the following line to the host apps CMakeLists.txt file:

set(PDFIUM_VERSION "4638" CACHE STRING "")

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

import 'package:native_pdf_renderer/native_pdf_renderer.dart';

void main() async {
  try {
    final document = await PdfDocument.openAsset('assets/sample.pdf');
    final page = await document.getPage(1);
    final pageImage = await page.render(width: page.width, height: page.height);
    await page.close();
    runApp(
      MaterialApp(
