PDFoundry has been deprecated as Foundry VTT now includes builtin PDF support, and there are only a few cases where PDFoundry's extra features exceed Foundry's. It may return one day to provide the missing features, but will require enough work to do so that it is currently not viable without a more complete re-write.
So long, and thanks for all the fish!
PDFoundry (pronounced Pee-Dee-Foundry/pi di ˈfaʊndri) is a fully featured PDF viewer for FoundryVTT! PDFoundry supports a full suite of features for viewing PDFs right in Foundry VTT. Fillable forms, bookmarks, page links in journals and LOTS more. You can even use a form fillable PDF character sheet for an actor!

PDFoundry is easily installable - find it in the modules list inside Foundry VTT. Alternatively, you can use the manifest link below.
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Djphoenix719/PDFoundry/master/module.json
I highly recommend you do not bundle PDFoundry - if you do however, the module version will disable itself and display a warning to the user. Instead, you can see the documentation for an example of checking for the presence of PDFoundry, and enabling additional support if it is found.
If you wish to build PDFoundry yourself - most commonly because you want to contribute - you can do the following.
- Clone the repository anywhere
- Copy
foundryconfig.example.jsonand rename itfoundryconfig.json. Edit the dataPath to your data folder. - Open a terminal, navigate to the repository directory
- Run
npm install - Run
gulp buildto perform a one off build, orgulp watchto perform incremental builds as you change things
See the documentation for details and examples.
See the development board for a list of planned features, roughly in the order I plan to get to them.
