New in MobilePDF SDK 4.0: UI Configuration
Foxit Mobile PDF SDK 4.0 includes great improvements to the UI Extension component of the RDK. With the new version, developers can not only create a full-featured PDF Reader with a few lines of code but also fully configure the UI through the .JSON file included in the package.
About UI configuration
For the first time, in 4.0, the UI extensions component provides a new class called PDFReader. This class provides a full reader with a pre-built UI which includes enable/disable, show/hide customization options.
