Mdbook with pdf files

This repository demonstrates how to use pdf.js inside mdbook.

Get started locally with a simple example

Steps:

• Fork this repository
• Install mdbook
• Run mdbook serve

You can then see two pages:

• src/ex_md.md, a sample markdown file
• src/ex_pdf.md, loading src/paper.pdf inside a pdf.js viewer:

<script type="text/javascript" src="utils.js"></script>

<iframe id="pdf-js-viewer" src="" title="webviewer" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="800"></iframe>

<script>
    window.onload = () => document.getElementById("pdf-js-viewer").src = url("paper.pdf") + "#zoom=page-width&pagemode=none";
</script>

Just change url("paper.pdf") to load another pdf file.

The table of contents can be modified inside src/SUMMARY.md.

Publish to GitHub Pages

To publish on GitHub Pages, go to Settings -> Pages, select "Branch: gh-pages" and "Save".
