Note: The above sample will work in Windows OS only, the support for Linux and Mac will be included along with the support for PDF viewer in ASP.NET Core.

Follow the below steps to use Pdfium

1.Copy the Pdfium assembly’s folder to a local folder from the installation path. The folder name must be “Pdfium”.

2.The Pdfium assemblies will be available in {$SystemDrive}:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\{Essential Studio version}\Pdfium

Note: Only 16.1.0.24 and higher versions of Essential Studio release will contain Pdfium assembly folder. The Pdfium folder will contain two folders namely X86 and X64, both would contain pdfium.dll assembly for the respective architecture. The Syncfusion PDF viewer is designed to detect the architecture of the target machine in which it is deployed and would pick corresponding pdfium.dll to use it.
