I've very large sized PDF files. I want a PDF reader (PHP / Ruby / .NET) that does not load the whole file but just the page so that the response time gets better.
There are many PHP and .NET PDF readers but I'm not sure if they just load a page or load the whole file at once.

I have a url in my website that opens a pdf page that is loaded from Google Drive using https://docs.google.com/document/d/[document id]/export?format=pdf url, using a simple php readfile code. However, the generated pdf does not have metadata such as Title, Author, and Description.
What is the best way serve the pdf with the updated metadata?
Caveats:
The website uses a shared cPanel web hosting.
I cannot install perl modules.
The host doesn't provide native php pdf support, and I don't have access to composer.
The only supported server-side languages are perl and php.
The only acceptable solution I found was using ConvertApi, which has a very limited free account (1500 seconds). However, I can get around that by caching the pdf and either retrieving a new copy when it's been over a day since the it was last updated or when I pass an argument to force it to re-cache.
Do you recommend any other solutions? I very much rather have set-it-and-forget-it solution.
Or is 1500 seconds enough for a file that is rarely going to be used?
I need to develop application which creates pdf files and serve them via http. PDF is created using iTextSharp. In my pdf files are lot of anchors navigating to images and videos stored on the same server f.e. http://192.168.10.10/video.mp4 .
Files are generated and trasmitted via http correctly, but when I click on those anchors in my pdf source files are opening in browser. I would like to force download them.
I read all itextsharp documentation and cannot find anything.
Is there some way to do that?

Is it possible somehow to force my pdf documents to open always with the Adobe plugin for opening pdf's in a browser?
The problem is that I have some forms that have to be filled and saved(made with Adobe LiveCycle Designer) but with the Chrome PDF Viewer or others different than Adobe's it fails and the filled pdf can not be saved or saves but without the entered data.
you cannot force pdf to be viewed by acrobat by default. Default pdf applications set by browser will be there. You need to go through browsers in order to change the plugin. No code can invoke this functio
