If you search in a very large file and there are no matches of the string you're searching for or the matches are very far from the start (e.g. on the 10 000th page), the search takes a lot of time. The scenario can also lead to a crash.

Consider adding a progress bar showing on which page we're currently searching and implementing possibility to cancel the search.

Add support for interactive forms based on the Adobe XML Forms Architecture (XFA). XFA specifies an XFA resource, which is an XML stream that contains the information of the form. The format of an XFA resource is described in the XML Data Package (XDP) Specification. The XFA resource provides most of the information about the form; in particular, all form-related events such as calculations and validations.

This mode allows users to show two pages of the document side by side. With the current API this may be achieved by implementing Custom Presenter.

Workaround for documents generated with PdfProcessing: When drawing lines using the FixedContentEditor the IsFilled graphic property should be set to false:

RadFixedDocument document = new RadFixedDocument();

Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, 50, 50);
FixedContentEditor editor = new FixedContentEditor(document.Pages.AddPage());
editor.GraphicProperties.IsFilled = false;
editor.GraphicProperties.IsStroked = true;

editor.Position.Translate(50, 50);
editor.GraphicProperties.StrokeColor = new RgbColor(255, 0, 0);
editor.DrawText("Lines");
editor.DrawLine(rect.TopLeft, rect.TopRight);
editor.DrawLine(rect.TopRight, rect.BottomRight);
editor.DrawLine(rect.BottomRight, rect.BottomLeft);
editor.DrawLine(rect.BottomLeft, rect.TopLeft);

Hi!

Please extend CreateThumbnail. It is currently defined as:

 public ImageSource CreateThumbnail(RadFixedPage page, Size thumbnailSize)

Well, it works great for thumbnails and display on screen, but for saving bitmaps it is not perfect. 

If I want to change the DPI settings when saving the bitmap it is not possible, also the Pixelformat is not settable because they are hardcoded in CreateThumbnail.

Please extend CreateThumbnail like this:

 public ImageSource CreateThumbnail(RadFixedPage page, Size thumbnailSize, PixcelFormat pixelformat, int DPIX, int DPIY)

By the way, opening up the API behind radFixedPage.LoadContent and the hole drawing/rendering complex would be even better :-)

I'm dreaming of, to be able, only drawing certain layers. Sometimes it helps to see the hole object tree of a page to understand what gets painted over one another.

Thanks!

Expose a button in the UI that can be used instead of Ctrl+F.

Such a button can be currently added by customizing the default toolbar. For more information, check the documentation that describes how to achieve that: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/radpdfviewer/default-ui#customizing-the-default-ui

At this point, the Print() method allowing the customers to silently print a document uses the PrintableAreaWidth and PrintableAreaHeight properties of the print dialog, which are read-only and cannot be changed through the API. Consider changing them with PrintTicket.PageMediaSize.

We should also consider the scenario when the client needs to print a smaller PDF page on a bigger page size. For instance, A5 page to be printed on an A4 sheet without scaling the content.

From the PDF specification: PDF 1.6 introduces the capability for collections of three-dimensional objects, such as those used by CAD software, to be embedded in PDF files. Such collections are often called 3D models; in the context of PDF, they are referred to as 3D artwork.

Hello,

We are using PdfViewer and its command descriptor.

Right now, I don't find how to set the name of the file being saved. In my humble opinion, the command parameter should be the fileName of the PDF being exported.

The documentation doesn't tell how to set the fileName which is a basic thing to do for a save file command.

I didn't find a solution in the forum. Weird nobody ever talked about it.

Thanks for evaluating this feedback

The hierarchical document structure is a means to describe the PDF document structure, which is currently not supported. See 10.6.1 Structure Hierarchy on 856 page of the PDF specification for details.
This document structure is an alternative to the standard PDF structure and most non-Adobe software does not support it.

The document might have been created with Adobe software like Adobe LiveCycle Designer. Very often the document contains some fallback text in the standard PDF structure like:
"Please wait... If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document."
"The document you are trying to load requires Adobe Reader 8 or higher. You may not have the Adobe Reader installed or your viewing environment may not be properly configured to use Adobe Reader. For information on how to install Adobe Reader and configure your viewing environment please see  http://www.adobe.com/go/pdf_forms_configure."
"For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat X, Reader X, or later."

Currently, when printing landscape pages the content is rotated clockwise. There has to be an option to set it to anti-clockwise.

The document will be imported with a loss of content. The reason is that ASCII85Decoder will throw an ArgumentException when the stream doesn't end with '~>'. 

Although this is invalid case according to PDF specification, other applications are handling it and the document is successfully visualized in them. We may also consider implementing workaround that handles such invalid streams.

The default WPF PrintDialog cannot print asynchronously when it is shown in UI. However, you may see the demo in this forum post showing how to create custom PrintDialog and perform async printing with it:

When a pdf/a compliant document is opened in Adobe, there is a bar saying that the document is compliant with the standard. Expose such functionality in PdfViewer as well.
