Access Resources Without Leaving the PDF Viewer

Launch Actions in a .NET PDF Viewer component allow external applications or files to be executed directly from within a PDF document when users interact with elements like links or annotations. This capability increases the interactivity of PDF solutions by enabling users to open related documents, access relevant tools, or initiate custom processes seamlessly, without leaving the viewer. By incorporating Launch Actions, .NET PDF Viewer components enhance the user experience, minimize context switching, and support document-driven automation across enterprise and application environments.

Several .NET PDF Viewer Components offer launch actions including:

• DevExpress WinForms PDF Viewer (part of DevExpress WinForms) lets you trigger external applications or open files directly from PDF documents.
• Document Solutions for PDF by MESCIUS allows you to seamlessly execute external programs or launch files via embedded Launch Actions in PDF content.
• XFINIUM.PDF MOBILE EDITION facilitates reliable Launch Action execution, enabling PDFs to activate external resources or applications on mobile platforms effortlessly.
• Syncfusion WPF PDF (part of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise) supports automated external file access or application startup from within PDF documents.
