Loading thumbnails for pages

[Matt Parizeau]

Q:

Is there an easy way to get the thumbnails for a document so that we can put them in our own JavaScript control?

A:

Yes, you can call loadThumbnailAsync on the document object http://www.pdftron.com/webviewer/demo/lib/html5/doc/symbols/CoreControls.Document.html#loadThumbnailAsync

For example:

var pageIndex = 0; // first page
var doc = readerControl.docViewer.getDocument();
doc.loadThumbnailAsync(pageIndex, function(thumb) {
  // thumb is an image or canvas element
});
