Greetings everyone!

 

Im facing a problem. I am trying an display an PDF File insider my electron application. The PDF can be displayed. Now i would like to disable every kind of button/toolbar/navigaton. I found an document about the opening parameters but im not sure if its outdated:

 

https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf

 

I am opening the PDF with the following Parameters:

"#view=Fit&scrollbar=0&toolbar=0&navpanes=0&statusbar=0"
 
"statsbar=0" and "view=Fit" are the only params that are working and im wondering why?
 
Screenshots in the Attachment.
As you can see there are still some buttons to change the zoom and the scrollbar appers aswell. I would expect no buttons and no scrollbar, due to the param im using to open the pdf.
 
If anyone has some ideas or a hint, that would be awesome!
 
Simon

You doesn't use Acrobat Reader. Chrome has a own PDF viewer.
