Answer 3

Use WPF

Answer 4

Yes, I am developing an WPF Web Application.

But, really WPF also need to be download and installed into local machine when running it.

For example:

1. I create an WPF with PDF Reader embeded in it.

2. When running it on local machine, Its possible to view PDF content without installed Acrobat Reader in local machine.

Answer 5

You can create WPF Browser application but for PDF view maybe it will need some installation. See also ClickOnce.

Answer 6

I have try to create an WPF application which explain in http://www.screencast.com/t/JXRhGvzvB

But can only run when we install acrobat Reader in Local machine.

Answer 7

There is reference to AcroPDFLib which means that it has to be installed locally. You may try to find open source .Net PDF viewer and compile it. The other way is to install this library from your WPF app at startup - download it from internet.
