Hi All,

I want to open a .pdf file from my C# application and show to the user.

I have acrobat reader in the client's computer.

How to do this? Any suggestions please ?

Thanks for your time.

Hi,

You could use System.Diagnostics.Process.Start()
take a look at it in the MSDN

Cheers,
 
Alternately, you can host the web browser control in your C# application and
load this .pdf file into the browser control.
 
Hi,

IMHO it's better if you use Process.Start() it will open acrobat reader and
you will see the document in another window.

Unless that you want to see the pdf inside your application I would go for
the Process.Start method

Cheers,
