Hello, I like the Telerik PDF Viewer for Blazor, but it's not supporting Table of Contents (TOC) links.  I would like to request this feature so that there are links in the TOC automatically.  I'm using Blazor WebAssembly.

Thank you for considering my request.

I would like to have access to the search option of the pdf viewer.
I have an old Asp.net framework site hosting the scanned pages (57.000) of the local newspaper from its start in May 1945 and want to rewrite it in Blazor.

One of the features is that you can search for words on all pages (using SQL Full-text indexing search on a table with all the plain texts to quickly locate the pages containing these words) and when a found page is clicked show the pdf of that page and prefill the searchbox of the pdf viewer to automatic highlight the found words).

This article gives a solution to achieve that in JS, but it would be nice if this could be done from de C# code https://www.telerik.com/forums/open-pdfviewer-with-highlighted-text

Kind regards,

Kees Alderliesten

Pdf viewer should display form fields like Text fields, check boxes, etc and allow users to type in fields.  Also support form field calculations.

Once populated, allow client side save to a file blob so that the data could be posted to a server or really whatever the dev wanted to do with it.

Adding the ability to fill in a PDF online in the PDF Viewer would open a lot of opportunity to the library.

The ability to fill-out, sign, and date would be great with a save callback, so it can be pushed to an API.

This request is for allowing to open other document types in PDF Viewer - for example, Word, Excel. The functionality will target viewing only and not editing.

1. Handle the OnOpen event to get the file bytes
2. Use the appropriate format provider of the RadSpreadProcessing library to import the Word/Excel file
3. Export the file with the PdfFormatProvider
4. Pass the converted file to the PDF Viewer to display it

Note: We've registered a bug with this solution. The PDF Viewer does not open other types of documents from the FileSelect in the Toolbar, they can be opened only on initialization of the component. Currently, the bug is in our backlog. Once fixed, the above-listed solution can be used to configure the PDF Viewer for viewing other document types. A knowledge base resource will be published on the matter.

Please expose a parameter to show or hide the "Select files..." button inside the empty PDF Viewer.

Currently, a possible workaround is to use CSS:

<TelerikButton OnClick="@OnOpenToggle">Toggle Open Buttons</TelerikButton>

<TelerikPdfViewer Data="@PdfSource"
                  Class="@HideOpenClass"
                  Height="400px" />

<style>
    .hide-open .k-blank-page,
    .hide-open .k-button:has(.k-i-folder-open) {
        display: none;
    }
</style>

@code {
    private byte[] PdfSource { get; set; }

    private string HideOpenClass { get; set; } = string.Empty;

    private async Task OnOpenToggle()
    {
        string _hideOpenClass = "hide-open";

        HideOpenClass = HideOpenClass == _hideOpenClass ? string.Empty : _hideOpenClass;
    }
}

Nice job on Telerik, Kendo UI and Test Studio R3 2022!   I like the PDF Viewer UI Controls.  Question: Any plans to add annotations and comments to CLIENT-SIDE ONLY solution i.e. .NET Blazor MAUI libraries similar to this server-side only solution
