To make migration from Xamarin SfPdfViewer to .NET MAUI SfPdfViewer easier, we kept most of the APIs from Xamarin SfPdfViewer in MAUI SfPdfViewer. However, to maintain the consistency of API naming in MAUI SfPdfViewer, we renamed some of the APIs. The APIs that have been changed in MAUI SfPdfViewer from Xamarin SfPdfViewer are detailed as follows.
