Hi Kien,   
  
Greetings from  Syncfusion support.      
  
We have support to enable or disable the built-in toolbar in our Pdfviewer control. Please use the below-mentioned API to disable the built-in toolbar.  
  
pdfViewerControl.Toolbar.Enabled = false;   
    
  
Kindly refer to the below UG link for more information about, “pdfViewerControl.Toolbar.Enabled” API.

I get the ability to turn on/off both of the toolbars, but will there ever be the ability to just turn off the bottom toolbar?

Our PDFs are read-only, but we still want the save/print/view feature functionality in the top toolbar, but we do not want the edit functionality in the bottom toolbar.  We can live with or without the page numbers, but we can't let the users access the edit functionality.

Or am I stuck creating my own toolbar?

Thanks!

Hi Mark, 
 
PdfViewer control allows you to remove the edit functionality in the bottom toolbar by hiding the toolbar items in the built-in toolbar. 
 
Please refer the below code to remove the toolbar items in the bottom toolbar, 
pdfViewerControl.Toolbar.SetToolbarItemVisibility("annotation", false); 
pdfViewerControl.Toolbar.SetToolbarItemVisibility("page-entry", false); 
pdfViewerControl.Toolbar.SetToolbarItemVisibility("page-count", false); 
pdfViewerControl.Toolbar.SetToolbarItemVisibility("pagecount-separator", false); 
 
Please find the demo sample in the below link, 
 
Please refer the below UG documentation for further updates, 
 
Please let us know, whether provided solution resolved your issue,

How can I move the Print and Save button to place it together to the rest of buttons? I hide some buttons but the print and save buttons are inside of "3 points" button and I cannot move them.


There is a "Save as" button or functionality?

Hi Christian Campos, 
  
Currently, we do not have support to customize(move) the buttons in the built-in toolbar of SfPdfViewer control.  
  
However, your requirement of adding the print and save button along with another button in the top toolbar can be achieved by creating custom toolbar, instead of using built-in toolbar.  
  
Please refer the below link for custom toolbar sample,
