PDF.js 2.0.943 is not rendering PDF in browser

Question

I am trying to display PDF in browser, I found library PDF.js which is most popular and most suggested library. Documentations and are clear, but one I try to use latest official release 2.0.943 document is not rendered, it gets loaded(as I see correct number of pages), but not visible.

My fiddle with minor change(only version): https://jsfiddle.net/94x2ozbq/

From what I figured out: var viewport = page.getViewport({ scale: scale }) returns object with height and width equal to NaN

Answer 1

You need to make a slight modification to the following line in renderPage() , which in current versions takes an object, but in 2.0.943 is expecting a number:

From:

var viewport = page.getViewport({scale: scale});

To:

var viewport = page.getViewport(scale);
