How to display whole PDF (not only one page) with PDF.JS?
Here's my take. Renders all pages in correct order and still works asynchronously.
<style>
#pdf-viewer {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
overflow: auto;
}
.pdf-page-canvas {
display: block;
margin: 5px auto;
border: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}
</style>
<script>
url = 'https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/master/test/pdfs/tracemonkey.pdf';
var thePdf = null;
var scale = 1;
PDFJS.getDocument(url).promise.then(function(pdf) {
thePdf = pdf;
viewer = document.getElementById('pdf-viewer');
for(page = 1; page <= pdf.numPages; page++) {
canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
canvas.className = 'pdf-page-canvas';
viewer.appendChild(canvas);
renderPage(page, canvas);
}
});
function renderPage(pageNumber, canvas) {
thePdf.getPage(pageNumber).then(function(page) {
viewport = page.getViewport({ scale: scale });
canvas.height = viewport.height;
canvas.width = viewport.width;
page.render({canvasContext: canvas.getContext('2d'), viewport: viewport});
});
}
</script>
<div id='pdf-viewer'></div>
The pdfjs-dist library contains parts for building PDF viewer. You can use PDFPageView to render all pages. Based on https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/master/examples/components/pageviewer.html :
var url = "https://cdn.mozilla.net/pdfjs/tracemonkey.pdf";
var container = document.getElementById('container');
// Load document
PDFJS.getDocument(url).then(function (doc) {
var promise = Promise.resolve();
for (var i = 0; i < doc.numPages; i++) {
// One-by-one load pages
promise = promise.then(function (id) {
return doc.getPage(id + 1).then(function (pdfPage) {
// Add div with page view.
var SCALE = 1.0;
var pdfPageView = new PDFJS.PDFPageView({
container: container,
id: id,
scale: SCALE,
defaultViewport: pdfPage.getViewport(SCALE),
// We can enable text/annotations layers, if needed
textLayerFactory: new PDFJS.DefaultTextLayerFactory(),
annotationLayerFactory: new PDFJS.DefaultAnnotationLayerFactory()
});
// Associates the actual page with the view, and drawing it
pdfPageView.setPdfPage(pdfPage);
return pdfPageView.draw();
});
}.bind(null, i));
}
return promise;
});#container > *:not(:first-child) {
border-top: solid 1px black;

<div id="container" class="pdfViewer singlePageView"></div>The accepted answer is not working anymore (in 2021), due to the API change for var viewport = page.getViewport( 1 ); to var viewport = page.getViewport({scale: scale});, you can try the full working html as below, just copy the content below to a html file, and open it:
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/build/pdf.js"></script>
<head>
<body>
</body>
<script>
var url = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mozilla/pdf.js/ba2edeae/web/compressed.tracemonkey-pldi-09.pdf';
// Loaded via <script> tag, create shortcut to access PDF.js exports.
var pdfjsLib = window['pdfjs-dist/build/pdf'];
// The workerSrc property shall be specified.
pdfjsLib.GlobalWorkerOptions.workerSrc = 'https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/build/pdf.worker.js';
var currPage = 1; //Pages are 1-based not 0-based
var numPages = 0;
var thePDF = null;
//This is where you start
pdfjsLib.getDocument(url).promise.then(function(pdf) {
//Set PDFJS global object (so we can easily access in our page functions
thePDF = pdf;
//How many pages it has
numPages = pdf.numPages;
//Start with first page
pdf.getPage( 1 ).then( handlePages );
});
function handlePages(page)
{
//This gives us the page's dimensions at full scale
var viewport = page.getViewport( {scale: 1.5} );
//We'll create a canvas for each page to draw it on
var canvas = document.createElement( "canvas" );
canvas.style.display = "block";
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
canvas.height = viewport.height;
canvas.width = viewport.width;
//Draw it on the canvas
page.render({canvasContext: context, viewport: viewport});
//Add it to the web page
document.body.appendChild( canvas );
var line = document.createElement("hr");
document.body.appendChild( line );
//Move to next page
currPage++;
if ( thePDF !== null && currPage <= numPages )
{
thePDF.getPage( currPage ).then( handlePages );
}
}
</script>
</html>
PDFJS has a member variable numPages, so you'd just iterate through them. BUT it's important to remember that getting a page in pdf.js is asynchronous, so the order wouldn't be guaranteed. So you'd need to chain them. You could do something along these lines:
var currPage = 1; //Pages are 1-based not 0-based
var numPages = 0;
var thePDF = null;
//This is where you start
PDFJS.getDocument(url).then(function(pdf) {
//Set PDFJS global object (so we can easily access in our page functions
thePDF = pdf;
//How many pages it has
numPages = pdf.numPages;
//Start with first page
pdf.getPage( 1 ).then( handlePages );
});
function handlePages(page)
{
//This gives us the page's dimensions at full scale
var viewport = page.getViewport( 1 );
//We'll create a canvas for each page to draw it on
var canvas = document.createElement( "canvas" );
canvas.style.display = "block";
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
canvas.height = viewport.height;
canvas.width = viewport.width;
//Draw it on the canvas
page.render({canvasContext: context, viewport: viewport});
//Add it to the web page
document.body.appendChild( canvas );
//Move to next page
currPage++;
if ( thePDF !== null && currPage <= numPages )
{
thePDF.getPage( currPage ).then( handlePages );
}
}
