• Going from zathura to neovim

  You didn't say what OS you're using, but on linux the best of the poppler-based PDF viewers are probably qpdfview (lighter weight) and okular (heavier but more features), both of which have good synctex support as well. Source: almost 2 years ago

• What are your favorite PDF viewers/editors

  I've been happy with qpdfview as my PDF viewer for a couple of years now. I've customized it to have vi-like keybindings (j/k for instance) and it has others features like SyncTeX support and tabs that I want in a PDF viewer. The only thing lacking is support for playing media files, which comes in handy during presentations and such. I don't edit PDFs regularly, but when I do I just import it in Inkscape...

• DEMO - Voice to PDF - Complete PDF documents with voice commands using the Claude 3 Opus API

  ReadPdf: used for reading the dropped file and displaying it on the screen, it uses PDF.js to load the file, get all fields and display it on the browser. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Building W-9 Crafter

  I first started building the app in the browser, using PDF.js and Download.js to take a PDF and edit it, and then download it to your computer. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• How to Write a Cold Email

  I'd think opening a PDF in your browser would be at the same risk-level you associate with going to any random URL. On Firefox at least, I'm pretty sure the built-in PDF viewer is simply JS parsing and rendering the PDF anyway -- nothing with elevated permissions: https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• PDF Chat with Node.js, OpenAI and ModelFusion

  We use Mozilla's PDF.js via the pdfjs-dist NPM module to load pages from a PDF file. The loadPdfPages function reads the PDF file and extracts its content. It returns an array where each object contains the page number and the text of that page. - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago

• Printing as PDF: Chromium takes ages and 5Mb, while Webkit is super fast and light

  I’ve been using pdf.js before, worked quite well. Source: about 1 year ago
