On the Edge Chromium 86 which was released some time ago, the PDF Viewer on the Edge Chromium 86 is arguably better than the Edge Chromium 85 version or below, where when a user opens a PDF file, not all frames and text are opened and rendered at once, and will be rendered. when the user only accesses it.
With this process, of course, the performance of the device when opening PDFs in large sizes is not too heavy and does not take up much CPU Usage.
And besides that, did you know that you can also add a sense of smoothness when scrolling on PDF files that you open with Edge Chromium to make it more stable and comfortable to scroll up and down with either the touchpad or mouse.
Smooth Scrolling for PDF
Just like Smooth Scrolling which makes scrolling animation smoother when you scroll on web page content, on the Edge Chromium you can also activate Smooth Scrolling for PDF which works the same, only this is not for Web Page Content, but PDF files.
How to Enable Smooth Scrolling for PDF
To activate it, it’s quite easy, you only need to follow a few steps below.
Step 1. Please copy the following URL and paste it on your Chromium Edge Address Bar.
edge://flags#edge-smooth-scrolling-enabled-pdf
Step 2.Next, please set it from Default to Enabled, exactly as shown above.
Step 3.Restart your Edge Chromium.
When this feature is activated, this feature will provide a more responsive, stable, and comfortable feel and experience when you scroll through the PDF files that you open, especially if the monitor used already has a refresh rate of 75Hz or higher, it feels even better.
In my opinion, this feature is very suitable for those of you who often open PDF files via Edge Chromium, because it feels more comfortable when viewing smooth and responsive scroll animations.
