react-pdf 2.0.0

v2.0.0

on Node.js NPM

See Upgrade guide from version 1.x to 2.x.

What's new?

• Now there's more React in React. React-PDF's structure has been completely rewritten (#27).
  • Documents are now loaded using Document component.
  • Pages are now rendered in Page components. They are meant to be rendered inside Document component. And yes, this means you can now render many pages at once!
  • You can render now table of contents using Outline component.
• Support for text layers! This means the text rendered by Page component can be selected or read by a screen reader (nnarhinen/react-pdf#52). Rendering text layer is enabled by default, but you can disable it by using renderTextLayer flag.
• All React-PDF methods (loadDocument, loadPage etc.) now return a promise for your convenience.
• onLoadSuccess of Document and Page components now pass pdf and page respectively to their success handlers, giving you access to full PDF.js API.
• New entry - entry.noloader - which gives you an ability not to create a separate thread for rendering PDFs. See README for more information.
• React-PDF now respects page's default rotation. In v1.x, rotation was always set to 0 unless rotate prop was passed. Now React-PDF renders pages in their default rotation as defined in PDF file.
• Default entry will now display a warning if you're developing on a local file system.
• It's now easier to style No data, Error and Loading messages as they now have their own CSS classes.
• New sample PDFs were added.
• README file has been updated.
  • Added instructions for non-Webpack projects.
  • Added instructions for babel-polyfill.
• Sample and Test pages have been updated.
  • Both pages are now mobile friendly.
  • Sample page now renders an entire PDF at once.
  • Test page now has an Outline section with sample navigation.
• Optimized NPM package. It no longer includes files not necessary for end user.

Bug fixes

• Fixed pages rendered sometimes being blurry due to the lack of rounding width/height down.
• Fixed PDF.js attempting to load worker from a random location (depending on the name of the last script included in head at the moment of loading PDF.js). It is now set to pdf.worker.js (nnarhinen/react-pdf#39).
• React-PDF will no longer warn Warning: setState(...): Can only update a mounted or mounting component. if you unmount it while loading a file or rendering a page (#43).
