ICEpdf Servlet Web Application

ICEpdf Servlet Web Application

The ICEpdf Servlet Web Application is a reference implementation (RI) of a PDF viewer web application. You can use it as is, or as a starting point for your own custom application.

The Servlet Web Application provides an HTML interface for navigating and viewing PDF documents using any browser. The ICEpdf library is used on the server in a non-visual, non-interactive configuration to load, parse, and render the PDF document. As a user requests each page from the document via the HTML interface, ICEpdf converts that page to an image file that is inserted into the HTML page for viewing.

The source-code for the ICEpdf Servlet Web Application is located in the src\examples\servlet directory.

Running ICEpdf as a Servlet

The ICEpdf Servlet web application can be built with the ant build files provided with the source. The ReadMe.txt located in the root of the src directory contains a list of JARs which are needed in order to compile and run this example.
