Merge pages from an external PDF document programmatically

In this sample, we invoke a system file picker dialog to select an external PDF file to merge. Then, we merge a first page from the selected PDF document and load the result PDF into the viewer.

window.onload = function(){ var viewer = new DsPdfViewer("#viewer", getViewerOptions()); configureViewerUI(viewer); viewer.open("/document-solutions/javascript-pdf-viewer/demos/product-bundles/assets/pdf/helloworld.pdf"); }
