Getting Started

Prerequisites

To add IronPDF Viewer to your MAUI application, first ensure that it does not target iOS and Android platforms. To do this in Visual Studio, follow the steps below:

1. Right-click on your project and select "Properties".
2. In the section "iOS Targets", uncheck "Enable targeting of the iOS Platform".
3. In the section "Android Targets", uncheck "Enable targeting of the Android platform".

Unchecking both may require you to reload your project and/or restart Visual Studio.

Installing IronPDF Viewer

To install IronPDF Viewer, open the NuGet Package Manager Console and run the following command:

PM> Install-Package IronPdf.Viewer.Maui

Alternatively, you could perform the following steps to install with NuGet Package Manager:

1. Right-click on Dependencies/Nuget.
2. Select "Manage Nuget Packages"
3. Search for "IronPdf.Viewer.Maui"
4. Click "Add Package"

Adding the Viewer to your MAUI Project

In your MAUI app, add the following code to MauiProgram.cs:

using IronPdf.Viewer.Maui;

public static class MauiProgram
{
    public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
    {
        var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
        builder
            .UseMauiApp<App>()
            // other configuration options ...
            .ConfigureIronPdfView(); // configure the viewer on app start-up

        return builder.Build();
    }
}

Then add the IronPdfView component to a view in C#:

using IronPdf.Viewer.Maui;

public class MainPage : ContentPage
{
    private readonly IronPdfView pdfView;

    public MainPage()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        this.pdfView = new IronPdfView { Options = IronPdfViewOptions.All };

        Content = this.pdfView;
    }
}

Alternatively, you could add the IronPdfView component to a view in XAML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ContentPage ...
    xmlns:ipv="clr-namespace:IronPdf.Viewer.Maui;assembly=IronPdf.Viewer.Maui"
    ...>
    <ipv:IronPdfView x:Name="pdfView" Options="All" />
</ContentPage>
