PdfViewerLauncher

PdfViewerLauncher is a .NET library that allows you to launch an external WPF PDF Viewer application with specified parameters. It supports .NET Framework 4.5+ and .NET Core 3.0+.

📌 Features

  • Launch a PDF viewer application with a specified PDF file and user ID.
  • Optionally provide a custom path for the PDF viewer executable.
  • Supports default executable path configuration.

📥 Installation

Using NuGet Package Manager

Install-Package PdfViewerLauncher

dotnet add package PdfViewerLauncher

---------------------------------------------------
## Call the LaunchPdfViewer method to open a PDF file with the viewer.
using PdfViewerLauncher;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        string filePath = @"C:\Documents\sample.pdf";  // Path to the PDF file
        string userId = "User123";  // User identifier

        // Launch the PDF Viewer
        PdfLauncher.LaunchPdfViewer(filePath, userId);
    }
}

---------------------------------------------------
## Customizing the Default PDF Viewer Path

# By default, the viewer executable is set to:
private static string _defaultExePath = @"C:\Program Files\CyberServe\PdfViewerApp\PdfViewer.exe";

#To change this path dynamically, call:
PdfLauncher.SetDefaultViewerPath(@"D:\CustomPath\MyPdfViewer.exe");

#To override the path per call, provide it as a parameter:
PdfLauncher.LaunchPdfViewer(filePath, userId, @"D:\CustomPath\MyPdfViewer.exe");

##Error Handling

#If the PDF file does not exist, an error message is shown:
The selected file does not exist.

#If the viewer executable is not found, you will see:
PDF Viewer executable not found at: [Path]
