Examples

Example - current page / page count

<template>
	<div>
		{{currentPage}} / {{pageCount}}
		<pdf
			src="https://cdn.mozilla.net/pdfjs/tracemonkey.pdf"
			@num-pages="pageCount = $event"
			@page-loaded="currentPage = $event"
		></pdf>
	</div>
</template>

<script>

import pdf from 'vue-pdf'

export default {
	components: {
		pdf
	},
	data() {
		return {
			currentPage: 0,
			pageCount: 0,
		}
	}
}

</script>

Example - display multiple pages of the same pdf document

<template>
	<div>
		<pdf
			v-for="i in numPages"
			:key="i"
			:src="src"
			:page="i"
			style="display: inline-block; width: 25%"
		></pdf>
	</div>
</template>

<script>

import pdf from 'vue-pdf'

var loadingTask = pdf.createLoadingTask('https://cdn.mozilla.net/pdfjs/tracemonkey.pdf');

export default {
	components: {
		pdf
	},
	data() {
		return {
			src: loadingTask,
			numPages: undefined,
		}
	},
	mounted() {

		this.src.promise.then(pdf => {

			this.numPages = pdf.numPages;
		});
	}
}

</script>

Example - print all pages

<template>
	<button @click="$refs.myPdfComponent.print()">print</button>
	<pdf ref="myPdfComponent" src="https://cdn.mozilla.net/pdfjs/tracemonkey.pdf"></pdf>
</template>

Example - print multiple pages

<template>
	<button @click="$refs.myPdfComponent.print(100, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14])">print</button>
	<pdf ref="myPdfComponent" src="https://cdn.mozilla.net/pdfjs/tracemonkey.pdf"></pdf>
</template>

Example - get text content

<template>
	<div>
		<button
			@click="logContent"
		>
			log content
		</button>
		<pdf
			ref="myPdfComponent"
			src="https://cdn.mozilla.net/pdfjs/tracemonkey.pdf"
		></pdf>
	</div>
</template>

<script>

import pdf from 'vue-pdf'

export default {
	components: {
		pdf
	},
	methods: {
		logContent() {

			this.$refs.myPdfComponent.pdf.forEachPage(function(page) {

				return page.getTextContent()
				.then(function(content) {

					var text = content.items.map(item => item.str);
					console.log(text);
				})
			});
		}
	}
}

</script>

		</select>
		<input v-model.number="page" type="number" style="width: 5em"> /{{numPages}}
		<button @click="rotate += 90">&#x27F3;</button>
		<button @click="rotate -= 90">&#x27F2;</button>
		<button @click="$refs.pdf.print()">print</button>
		<div style="width: 50%">
			<div v-if="loadedRatio > 0 && loadedRatio < 1" style="background-color: green; color: white; text-align: center" :style="{ width: loadedRatio * 100 + '%' }">{{ Math.floor(loadedRatio * 100) }}%</div>
			<pdf v-if="show" ref="pdf" style="border: 1px solid red" :src="src" :page="page" :rotate="rotate" @password="password" @progress="loadedRatio = $event" @error="error" @num-pages="numPages = $event" @link-clicked="page = $event"></pdf>
