Developers

A pure-Dart PDF engine you can use too.

The engine uses Dart instead of PDFium or native bindings, so it runs anywhere Dart and Flutter do. The packages are Apache-2.0 licensed and published on pub.dev. Read the Flutter PDF SDK overview for benchmarks and a comparison with commercial SDKs.
