Currently, if a PDFViewer is opened on a mobile device and we use two fingers to zoom its content, the file is zoomed but the more we zoom it, the blurrier its content becomes. The reason for this is the fact that when we use "pinch-zoom" to zoom the PDF file(in a PDFViewer) it is zoomed using the browser's zoom functionality and not the functionality provided by the PDFViewer component. 

It will be a very useful feature if the built-in PDFViewer zoom functionality is used when the user zooms content with two fingers, on a mobile device

Is it possible to add an option similar to the Data() method that can be used to pass additional parameters to the remote endpoint through the Read request of the PDFViewer?

For example:

    @(Html.Kendo().PDFViewer().Name("pdfviewer")
        .DplProcessing(dpl => {
            dpl.Read(r => r.Url(Url.Action("GetInitialPdf", "PdfViewer")).Data("additionalParams"));
            ...
        })
    )

<script>
function additionalParams() {
  return {
    param1: "test"
  }
}
</script>

Provide editable AcroForms support in PDFViewer.

The current implementation of the Kendo PDFViewer depends on pdf.js, so the following should be taken into account:
