Disabling the textLayer in PDFjs

[vishnu-dev]

I need to disable the textLayer that is rendered above the canvas to reduce memory.
In PDFjs it is done with the code below,

PDFJS.disableTextLayer = false

How to do it using ng2-pdfjs-viewer?

Just figured it out, For people needing this,

@ViewChild('pdfViewerOnDemand', {static: false}) pdfViewer;

loadComplete() {
    this.pdfViewer.PDFViewerApplicationOptions.textLayer = false;
}

Hello,

For me that provoque error in console : PDFViewerApplicationOptions is not defined...

thanks

@Paul75 Load complete function should be called after document is loaded.

(onDocumentLoad)="loadComplete()"

This is not working for me...

It did not change anything.

my html:

<ng2-pdfjs-viewer #pdfViewer [pdfSrc]="data.pdfSrc" viewerId="anyId" (onDocumentLoad)="loadComplete()"></ng2-pdfjs-viewer>

my component:

  @ViewChild('pdfViewer', { static: false }) pdfViewer: PdfJsViewerComponent;
  
  loadComplete() {
    console.log('loadComplete');
    this.pdfViewer.PDFViewerApplicationOptions.textLayer = false;
    this.cdr.markForCheck();
  }

As you can see I am even trying to call "markForCheck()" to hopefully fire any change but nothing changes... The console.log gets logged to the console, but the textLayer is still rendered above the canvas.

@tigrenok00 For my use case - yes. But not for this problem - sorry.
