Pro Tips for PDF Viewing

Use Keyboard Shortcuts

Press + and - to zoom, F for fullscreen, and arrow keys to scroll between pages. These shortcuts make navigation much faster.

Toggle Thumbnails

Use the sidebar toggle to show page thumbnails. This gives you a bird's-eye view of the document and lets you jump to any page instantly.

Search Efficiently

Use Ctrl+F or the search button to find text. The viewer searches across all pages and shows the total number of matches found.

Fit to Width

Use the Fit Width button to make the PDF fill the available width. This is often the most comfortable reading zoom level.

Frequently Asked Questions

All standard PDF files are supported, including scanned documents, text-based PDFs, forms, and PDFs with embedded images. Password-protected PDFs are not supported in this viewer.
No. Your PDF is processed entirely in your browser using PDF.js, the same engine used by Firefox. The file never leaves your device, making it completely private and secure.
Yes. Use the search feature in the toolbar to find any text in the document. Matches are highlighted and you can navigate between them with next/previous buttons. The total match count is displayed.
Click the sidebar toggle to show page thumbnails on the left side. Each thumbnail is a small preview of the page. Click any thumbnail to scroll directly to that page. The current page is highlighted.
You can zoom in/out with buttons or keyboard shortcuts (+ and -), fit the document to page width, fit to the full page, or reset to 100%. The current zoom percentage is always displayed.
Yes. The viewer uses the native Fullscreen API where available and falls back to a CSS-based fullscreen overlay for browsers that restrict the API. Press Escape or the fullscreen button to exit.
Yes. Click the Print button to open the PDF in a new window optimized for printing, then use your browser's print dialog to print or save as PDF.
There is no hard limit. PDFs up to hundreds of pages work well. Very large PDFs (1000+ pages) may take a moment to render thumbnails but pages load on demand for smooth scrolling.
Arrow Up/Down or Page Up/Down for page navigation, + and - for zoom, F for fullscreen toggle, and Escape to exit fullscreen or close search.
Yes. The viewer is fully responsive. On mobile, the thumbnail sidebar is hidden by default but can be toggled. Touch scrolling and pinch-to-zoom work naturally.
