A PDF Viewer supporting Vimium C shortcuts.
A customized PDF Viewer which allows Vimium C ro run on its view.
This viewer uses an unofficial version of PDF.js project to show content of PDF files, and actively requests Vimium C's support.
The PDF.js is v2.15.349+, up-to-date on 2022/08/08 and built from commit 40f9f7e9097e1168e98f1e2987726c5c31693617 of https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js. And my modification is up to https://github.com/gdh1995/pdf.js/commit/c785e93bb11febb98b373db74aca358d8ac086fc.
Recent update:
1. (2022/08) This version turns off the experimental feature of "using iframe to show top-frame PDFs" by default, because in some edge cases (e.g. on some web servers) it would fail in accessing PDF files. While you may re-enable it as you like. There should be no other difference after a PDF file gets showing.
2. (2022/08) update the version of PDF.js
3. (2022/04) fix some issues of Vimium C's `scroll*` and `Marks*` commands.

- (2024-01-13) Julia Söderlund: I'm glad that something like this exists, but I can only use j and k to scroll and that hops an entire page at once. I can't read a pdf if it jumps an entire page at once, I'll just keep using pgup and pgdn.
- (2023-10-02) Guilherme David: i wish there was a way to disable pagination, as this doesn't allow me to copy and paste the whole text in the PDF. Also, it would be cool if j and k would work as the down and up keys, as opposed to changing pages (it would be better if h and l changed pages)
- (2023-09-23) Yabin CHENG: I used to convert all pdf to html, and run a local server to hold the html file to use vim-c for reading. What a life saver! Great tool.
- (2023-03-22) Conrad: Lifesaver.
- (2023-01-19) _ Nhat: Good thanks gdh1995 and many dev!
- (2022-11-25) Dave Houser: This extension just does not work, more importantly, there is no documentation so I don't know how to actually use it. The only thing I can get it to do is page up and page down with vim "j" and "k" nothing else works. If I should be using this a different way the creator needs to share how to set it up.
- (2022-10-23) Kelvin Nava: The keys do not work immediately on the pdf. You must click for them to work.
- (2022-05-23) Bin Liu: Great and indispensable companion for Vimium C! But could you add a "whitelist" in which sites this extension won't be activated? I have a few sites (mostly banking) that don't work with 3rd-party PDF viewer in Chrome.
- (2022-02-19) Zilong Li: 好用,方便,虽然有时候有点卡
- (2021-12-15) Jingpeng Wu: the shortcut of "u" "d" "gG" and "gg" do not work for me. Only "h" and "j" to turn pages works.
- (2021-06-30) Erick Ramos Aparicio: Genial, 5 estrellas
- (2021-06-09) Xiong Noah: Though I use Emacs for programming, but Vim everywhere else is awesome! Thanks to authors of this extension!
- (2021-04-10) Ivan Zabe: Dark mode for pdf would be great
- (2020-10-11) Chris: Excellent
- (2020-09-25) Ryan: Awesome extension! Thank you! Also, If anyone has issues where PDF's fail to load when the extension is enabled, Set "Prefer keeping URLs in the address bar unchanged" to false under this extension's options. This fixed the issue for me.
- (2020-07-19) 王需: You are so great!
- (2020-01-27) Richard Higgins: Solving this problem was the major bug I had with switching completely over to vimium everything. Thank you!!
