Breaking Change

Since FindController.executeCommand is deprecated, you should now use eventBus to do search. Example:

@ViewChild(PdfViewerComponent) private pdfComponent: PdfViewerComponent;

search(stringToSearch: string) {
  this.pdfComponent.eventBus.dispatch('find', {
    query: stringToSearch, type: 'again', caseSensitive: false, findPrevious: undefined, highlightAll: true, phraseSearch: true
  });
}

• [#828] - can't now show digital signature PKCS#7

Breaking change (Since 7.0.0)

Now you need to specify how much space pdf-viewer element should take by using CSS, so either set width and height, use flexbox or use something like positioning.

Example using height and width:

<pdf-viewer [src]="src" [original-size]="false" style="width: 400px; height: 500px"></pdf-viewer>

Example using absolute positioning to take entire page:

<pdf-viewer [src]="src" [original-size]="false" style="position: absolute; top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0"></pdf-viewer>

Breaking change

Now with the use of CSS you need to define dimensions (for example: height) of the pdf-viewer container element. (pdf-viewer should become container with scrollbar) This will improve pdf-viewer performance and eneble all the features.

pdf-viewer {
  /* define height */
  height: 700px;
  /* or use flex for example */
  flex: 1;
}

@ViewChild(PdfViewerComponent) private pdfComponent: PdfViewerComponent;

search(stringToSearch: string) {
  this.pdfComponent.pdfFindController.executeCommand('find', {

};

    pageNumber: page
  });
}
