❔ Anyone know of a free, and acceptable way to display pdfs and docx files in winforms?
Hi! I am writing a school project and would like to dispaly one pdf and one docx file in my winforms application. The problem is the nuget packages i find that allows this are either paid/need a license for or they are not allowing that kind of usage.

At least for pdf in the past I used tall components; but they’re very expensive, there may be an educational license or other dev license you could skirt by with. That being said tall components offered a lot of commercial valuable features and likely don’t need, I’d start with google

Thanks for the answers! I might be able to purchase devExpress Xtrareport, Unfortunately a trial wont do
