Show HN: I built a free alternative to Adobe Acrobat PDF viewer (Score: 151+ in 8 hours)
Link: https://readhacker.news/s/6zG9M
Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6zG9M
I built EmbedPDF: an MIT-licensed, open-source PDF viewer that aims to match all of Adobe Acrobat’s paid features… for free.
Already working:
- Annotations (highlight, sticky notes, free text, ink)
- True redaction (content actually removed)
- Search, text selection, zoom, rotation
- Runs fully in the browser, no server needed
- Drop-in SDK for React, Vue, Preact, vanilla JS
Why? Acrobat is heavy, closed, and pricey. I wanted something lightweight, hackable, and embeddable anywhere.
