PSPDFKit for macOS
The Core of Our SDK, Now for macOS
We’ve taken the core of our industry-leading iOS framework and brought it to macOS. PSPDFKit for macOS is what we call BYOV: bring your own views. It enables you to write your custom UI and PDF workflows on top of our advanced PDF-processing technology. The same level of performance, stability, and features you’ve come to expect on iOS — now for macOS.
