Vue-pdf parity?

[p3v9d5ui]

Hi @hrynko ,

Thank you! I've tested this and it works fine.

I've submitted a small PR: #11. This just adds the ability to supply a Uint8Array to the source property. It's just a matter of declaring that type, to avoid console warnings, because otherwise it works fine. Are you able to merge it?

Hi @p3v9d5ui,

Thank you! I hope that the experience of using vue-pdf-embed will not disappoint you.

In vue-pdf the page property is set to 1 by default, which is pretty weird for me. In contrast, vue-pdf-embed renders the entire document if the page property is not explicitly specified. So you don't have to iterate through the document manually. However, if needed, you can still access the number of pages in the document via template ref (see example).

As for working with links, this is not yet available, as well as the text layer itself. I plan to add this over time, however a pull request for this is welcome.

Secondly, to navigate to the correct page, I use vue-pdf's @link-clicked event to get the page number. Is this possible with vue-pdf-embed?

It is now available in 1.1.0. This release adds text and annotation layers that make documents searchable and selectable and links clickable (these layers can be disabled by the corresponding props). External links are handled as usual, while internal links are handled with the internal-link-clicked event.

It's worth noting that in this release the canvases have been wrapped in containers and additional divs have been added for the text and annotation layers. Also, because of these layers, the component is no longer scalable as it used to be. However, the scaling can be restored by disabling the layers (if you don't need them) and adding appropriate styles. Also, pages can now be assigned width and height (by default, width is container relative as before).

Thanks for this issue, I hope the new version will meet your needs.
