displaying a PDF with PDF.js in an htmlpanel

I have existing DevExpress XtraReport classes.
I have a Wisej form where I want to display the Xtrareports in a PDF.js viewer. My XtraReports can be exported to a PDF stream with "using DevExpress.XtraReports.UI;"
I cannot use wisej pdfviewer as it cannot be customized to turn off thumbnails and add email option to toolbar. Am I wrong about that?

If not, is there an example of using PDF.js viewer embedded in an htmlPanel? and the code to pass the correct variable to it?

Hello Jean,

You don't need to use an HtmlPanel, you can use your own PDF.js inside with the PDF Viewer control, please refer to this older post for more information and a sample!

Also, you can use AI in our documentation website to get a better understanding on how to implement your own custom PDF viewer, you can visit https://docs.wisej.com/api?q=custom+pdf+viewer&ask=true to get a head start!

Best Regards,
