- PDF files are a good solution, but a separate reader is required. The free Adobe Reader provides no possibility to realize a context sensitive help. Besides, Adobe Reader is no more easily distributable.
The solution: use Perfect DocuReader from soft Xpansion! Start the program directly from your application like this:
docureader.exe PDF_filename optional_page_number
and all the necessary functionality for the help presentation are available.
The Perfect DocuReader functions:
- Open, read and display any PDF files
- Show the needed document page at start
- Navigate using the bookmarks, links, buttons "Next page" and "Previous page"
- Zoom and search function.
Try it! It's easy! No installation required.
