How to use PDFium in a CMake project

1. Unzip one of more variants in a folder (eg

   C:\Libraries\pdfium

   )
2. Set the environment variable

   PDFium_DIR

   to this folder (eg

   C:\Libraries\pdfium

   )

3. In your

   CMakeLists.txt

   , add

   find_package(PDFium)
   

4. Then link you executable with PDFium:

   target_link_libraries(my_exe pdfium)
   

5. On Windows, make sure that

   pdfium.dll

   can be found by your executable.

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()

fpdf_libs.h

The archive will contain a

res

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 universial macOS binary containing both Intel and ARM code download both CPU versions and use the

mac_create_universal.sh

This project isn't affilated with Google nor Foxit.

We are very thankful to AppVeyor and Travis CI for extending the build time limit, which allows us to build PDFium with V8.
