I have read this Tip before, but was unable to find a Visual Basic DLL
to test it.

By the way, displaying all PDF content in a card is not a trivial
matter, given that
there are as many PDF varieties as applications that write them.
Some PDF are compressed, encripted, run Javascript code or have files attached
etc, etc, etc...

Some years ago, I collected many simple PDF files created by different
applications and, not surprisingly, the code of each PDF was completely
different of each other, although all of them displayed exactly the
same objects on
the screen. This tells more about the versatility of PDF readers than anything
else.

Maybe this tool by Curry Kenworthy could provide you with some
useful ideas for completing this task:

IDE: LiveCode or Runtime Revolution
Status: Available now!

Have a nice day
