Case Study: Lufthansa improves electronic flight bag document access with Pdftools PDF Viewer

Efficient mobile access to information for on-board staff at Deutsche Lufthansa AG

Deutsche Lufthansa AG required a new PDF viewer for its Electronic Flight Bag application, which provides flight personnel with all necessary digital documentation. The existing viewer from another manufacturer was incapable of displaying the documents that would be needed in the future. Lufthansa chose to implement the 3-Heights PDF Viewer from Pdftools to meet this challenge.

Pdftools integrated its PDF Viewer SDK into the EFB’s Application Library. The solution enabled Lufthansa to include new documents from airplane manufacturers and provided cabin crew with faster access to all flight information. This improvement contributed to increased flight safety, and the implementation was successfully completed with the support of the Pdftools team.
