System Requirements

Windows 7 SP1, 8, or 10 with .Net 4.6.1, and a PDF Viewer.

Older versions, documentation, and supporting files can be found in the PdfDroplet legacy archive.

PDF Viewer

In order to get a preview of the output inside of PdfDroplet, you will need a PDF viewer that integrates with Internet Explorer (PdfDroplet uses Internet Explorer, internally). Acrobat Reader, PdfXchange, and FoxIt can all integrate with IE, so normally, if you have one of these installed, all will be well. However for some users, there is no reader configured to show PDFs in Internet Explorer. For Adobe Reader specifically: run Adobe Reader, then in Preferences/Internet, enable the Display PDF in browser option.
