PDFium API documentation

Please find the documentation of the PDFium API on developers.foxit.com.

How to use PDFium in a CMake project

  1. Unzip the downloaded package in a folder (e.g., C:\Libraries\pdfium)

  2. Set the environment variable PDFium_DIR to this folder (e.g., C:\Libraries\pdfium)

  3. In your CMakeLists.txt, add

     find_package(PDFium)
    
  4. Then link your executable with PDFium:

     target_link_libraries(my_exe pdfium)
    
  5. On Windows, make sure that pdfium.dll can be found by your executable (copy it on the same folder, or put it on the PATH).

How to use JavaScript V8 enabled binaries

If you are using the V8-enabled binaries, additional initialization is required. In your code, before using PDFium you have to call FPDF_InitEmbeddedLibraries() from the additional header fpdf_libs.h, which is only available in V8 enabled binaries.

The archive will contain a res folder which you have to distribute with your application. On macOS, you should include this in your application bundle; for other platforms, place it where your application binary will find it.

See the following example for usage:

#include "fpdf_libs.h"

...

// Determine the path to files in the res folder from the archive
const char* resPath = "<path to the res folder>";

// Initialize V8 and other embedded libraries
FPDF_InitEmbeddedLibraries(resPath);

// Make use of PDFium
FPDF_InitLibrary();
FPDF_DestroyLibrary();

How to create macOS universal binary

To create a universal macOS binary containing both Intel and ARM code, download both CPU versions and use the mac_create_universal.sh script to create a universal archive.
