Hello,
We have several controls that are designed to display images. PictureEdit displays a single image. ImageEdit displays an image in a popup window. ImageSlider enables you to navigate between images with animation. GalleryControl can group and arrange several images at once.
These controls operate images that are loaded into your application. The loading is done using the default Image class. By the way, it can load TIFF images as well.
PDF files are not images and have a more complex structure. We have a special control to view PDF files - PDF Viewer.
I hope you find this information useful.

We need a plugin like the adobe reader plugin to use it as an documentviewer like in the picture (see attachment)

Hello,
Thank you for the additional info.
Nevertheless, your final goal is not completely clear to me. I have two assumptions and will give answers for both of them.

You want to show PDF content or images on the right (the "Bild" panel). The "Vorschaubilder" panel contains a list of documents and images. If you click a document, the PDF Viewer displays this document. If you click an image, the PDF viewer displays this image.
I suggest you use our GalleryControl to display thumbnails of documents and images in the "Vorschaubilder" panel.
Our PDFViewer displays only PDF documents. However, you can convert images to PDF on the fly. Please see the PDFViewer against TIFF format ticket for more information about this task.
2) You want to show PDF content on the right (the "Bild" panel). The "Baum-Struktur" panel looks very close to the "attachments" panel we have. See the File Attachment help topic for more information.

Please let me know whether my assumptions are correct. If not, describe the functionality of the three panels you want to have.
We look forward to your reply.

Thank you for your informations. I am testing the pdfviewerdemo now.

Baumstruktur is more a treeview for the documents. Not attachments. For example i can open 5 different pdf files and i will see them in the tree structure.

Vorschaubilder means preview images

And Bild is the Image. Its the plugin of the adobe reader dc (see attached image)

Hello.

>> PDFViewer against TIFF format ticket is not longer available.<<
That ticket is marked private, thus you could not open it. Please accept our apologies for providing you with an incorrect link. I have attached the sample Andrew mentioned from that thread for your reference.

From what I gather, you wish to display a preview of PDF documents. And open a certain document when the preview is clicked. Please correct me if I've mistaken.

If so, you can generate an image from the first page in the document via the PdfViewer.CreateBitmap method to use it as a preview.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need further assistance with this subject.

This works fine, but not with a multipage TIFF
