Can PDFsharp view or print PDF?

PDFsharp can neither view nor print PDF files. The design goal of the PDFsharp library is to create, modify and process PDF documents.

Because this question was asked very often, we created the PdfViewer sample. This sample demonstrates how to use the ActiveX control that comes with Acrobat Reader or Adobe Acrobat to show PDF files in a WinForms application.

In PDFsharp 0.9 we introduce a new class PdfFilePrinter that uses an installed Acrobat Reader or Adobe Acrobat with a command line switch to print PDF files. See sample 'PrintPdfFile'.
