# Flutter PDF Viewer - View PDF Files Seamlessly and Efficiently
* Reliable PDF rendering.
* Easy navigation and interaction.
* Customizable appearance.
## Overview
The Flutter PDF Viewer widget lets you view PDF documents seamlessly and efficiently on Android, iOS, web, Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms. It has highly interactive and customizable features: magnification, virtual bidirectional scrolling, page navigation, text selection, text search, page layout options, document link navigation, bookmark navigation, form filling, and reviewing with text markup and sticky note annotations.
## PDF sources
Load PDF documents from various sources such as AssetBundle, network or URLs, memory, and files. Open and display PDF files, both normal and protected, with AES and RC4 encryption algorithms (password-protected).
## Virtual scrolling
Easily scroll through pages in a document with a fluent experience. The pages are rendered only when required to increase the loading and scrolling performance.
## Magnification
The content of a document can be efficiently zoomed in and out by pinching, double-tapping, or changing the zoom factor programmatically.

### Can I purchase the Syncfusion® Flutter PDF Viewer widget separately?
No, our Flutter widgets, including PDF Viewer, are not sold individually, only as a single package. However, we have competitively priced the package, so it only costs a little bit more than what some other vendors charge for their PDF Viewer alone. We have also found that, in our experience, our customers usually start off using one of our products and then expand to several products quickly, so we felt it was best to offer all the Flutter widgets for a flat fee of **$995/developer**. On top of this, we might be able to offer additional discounts based on currently active promotions. Please contact our [sales team](https://www.syncfusion.com/company/contact-us) to see if you qualify for any additional discounts.
### What is the price for the Syncfusion® Flutter PDF Viewer widget?
We do not sell Flutter PDF Viewer separately. It is only available for purchase as part of the Syncfusion Flutter suite, which contains an ever-growing set of native Flutter widgets, including PDF Viewer. A single developer license for the [Syncfusion Essential Studio® for Flutter suite](https://www.syncfusion.com/sales/teamlicense) costs **$995.00 USD**, including one year of support and updates. On top of this, we might be able to offer additional discounts based on currently active promotions. Please contact our [sales team](https://www.syncfusion.com/company/contact-us) to see if you qualify for any additional discounts.
### Can I download and utilize the Syncfusion® Flutter PDF Viewer for free?
