What's new in jPDFViewer V5.30?

• New callout annotation - The callout tool combines a text box with a line and an arrow and is used to draw attention to text or objects in a PDF document.

jPDFViewer is a Java bean that can be embedded in Java applications and applets to deliver PDF content to your users without the need to install any third party programs or drivers. jPDFViewer integrates seamlessly into your application or applet and delivers features, performance and reliability. By using jPDFViewer to display your documents, your application has greater control over your PDF content. For instance, the PDF content can be created runtime and can be delivered directly to the viewer through a URL or an input stream without using any temporary files on the local computer. This can be useful when you need to prevent your users from being able to make copies of the files. Additionally, jPDFViewer gives you greater control over the navigation toolbar and its functions, such as printing. With jPDFViewer, your application remains in control of your documents, so you can enforce access and security protocols based on any criteria implemented by your system. jPDFViewer is platform independent, so it can be used in any environment that supports Java, including Windows, Mac OSX and Linux.
