CloudPDF - React PDF Viewer
========
The official CloudPDF SDK for React.

CloudPDF is a cloud service that offers a pre-rendered PDF viewer.

Why do I need that? ##################################################################

The most active open-source PDF viewer is PDF.JS. They offer a well developed PDF viewer which is rendered on the client side. However, we encountered several problems in implementing PDF.JS in our websites:

* Large PDF documents can take a long time to load (sometimes up to 30 seconds).
* The PDF is downloaded to the client, limiting the potential for security features.
* Although the PDF is rendered on the client, you still need to store it somewhere.
* A lot of development time is required to build the UI around the PDF viewer.

When you upload a PDF document to CloudPDF, this document is rendered and processed on the server. This significantly increases the speed for large documents. We build a beautiful UI around the viewer and take care of all PDF storage management so there is no need to set up a PDF file storage. Finally, we are working on implementing security features that will enable you to limit PDF access, for example by showing a limited number of pages when a user on your website is not logged in.
