Dear WebODF-interested and enthusiasts, following the release of WebODF 0.5.6, also ViewerJS, the WebODF-using Open Source document viewer for webpages, is available in an updated version. Features: It bumps both webodf.js to the latest version 0.5.6 as well as pdf.js to the latest stable v1.0.1040. The customization added in 0.5.5 has been extended by a new parameter. Next to "zoom", "title", and "type" it is now also possible to set the initial page displayed, by setting the parameter "startpage" (for files of type PDF and ODP). Example: /ViewerJS/index.html?startpage=42#some/slides/123 This will display the file fetched from "some/slides/123" and initially show the page 42. Fixes: The handling of PDFs with different page sizes has seen a fix, please try this version if you had problems with that before. ViewerJS continues to be the candidate for embedding ODF or PDF files directly in webpages, without any external server dependencies, just done with HTML, CSS and Javascript. Please visit http://viewerjs.org/ to learn more about ViewerJS, play with the examples at http://viewerjs.org/examples/, and give it a deployment in your webpages. And then spread your knowledge among your peers Or try the "bower" package, listed with "viewerjs" at the central bower registry. We are interested to get feedback on it, please tell if it works for you or what could be improved. If you use another package/dependency manager, please tell us how we can support it. There is currently a special repo set up for such managers which contains the files of the ViewerJS build, so any needed metadata file could be placed there: https://github.com/kogmbh/ViewerJS_release Cheers Friedrich -- Friedrich W.
