Hi

I am facing the same problem but this is only reproduced when it is generated for .Net 6, but for Net Framework 4... it is correct

I attach a couple of examples, one for each of the platforms.

Hi JMaren,


We can be able to reproduce the reported issue on our end with the provided .NET6 Sample. On analyzing the sample further, If we replace the assemblies from NuGet in the provided sample, the PDF gets loaded properly. we found that the modified date of the PDFViewer is alone changed and may be some conflicts may occur. We have also attached the NuGet referred sample below for your reference. Could you please share us that from where the PDFViewer DLL is taken or referred? This information will help us to assist you better on this. Also let us know attached sample working properly ?


Regards,

Raja Vignesh.
