One of the Chromium based products.  
Chrome Explorer from Capesoft  
EasyEdgeChromium from Ingasotplus  
I think @noyantis might have something, too. Perhaps in the Chilikat wrappers?

I have successfully used Chrome Explorer to do this.

Hi,

That’s correct, we have a PDF template that wrappers various different viewer engines (some of which are free to use like Adobe, SkySoft and Sorax etc).

The wrapper works with ABC + Legacy and supports C6 → C11.1

Its a case of adding the Global Extensions, adding the window control to your window, then optionally adding the Navigation / Zoom controls.

A demo is available on the PDF Wrapper product page:-

Thanks, and thanks for the suggestion @Rick_UpperPark🙂

Chrome Explorer embeds the Chromium engine into your application. It’s basically a browser control, so you can view things browsers can typically view. Like HTML pages, websites, and yes, PDF files.
