Using the viewer with the Classic design package

To manage documents in the viewer, you can use the buttons or the pop-up menu. The specific actions that are available to you depend on the configuration of the viewer for your application. You can also right-click some buttons to access more actions.

Opening documents

When you use the viewer on a website, you typically do not need to select a file because a document is loaded automatically when the web page is loaded. If you need to open a file, click the Open document button Open button to display a dialog box from which you can select an image or document file. Alternatively, right-click the Open document button to enter the URL to an image file or document file.

When a document is loading, the Open document button is the only one that you can use, and all other icons in the viewer are unavailable.

You can cancel the loading of the current document by clicking this button and opening a new document.

Saving documents

If the current document is a single file, click the Save document button Save button to save the file to your local disk, which downloads the original document.

If you constructed the document in the viewer from several source documents with the page<n> parameter, then the viewer constructs this file as a PDF.

Enlarging the view

You can use several options to change the view size of a document:
  • The zoom in zoom in icon and zoom out zoom out icon buttons.
  • The zoom area zoom area icon button to select and area to zoom into.
  • The magnifier button magnifier button to use a movable magnifier to enlarge part of the viewer.

    To increase the size of the magnifier, use the + key (or Ctrl+scroll up), and to decrease the size use the – key (or Ctrl+scroll down).

    To increase the magnification, press * (or shift+scroll up), and to decrease press / (or shift+scroll down).

  • Rotate clockwise Rotate Clockwise

You can navigate page to page with the scroll wheel of your mouse, or by using a scroll bar on the right.

In the toolbar, you can see the page position and the total of pages. Click this indicator to move directly to a specific page.
