Improving display of a heavy pdf

Hi Pierre!

I use GFlax asp component with LoadBitmap method. This is excellent tool. But, for long documents in PDF, it is very slow: i.e. I have a 500 pages pdf, it takes so long to display the first page, it seems that GFlax read all the pages to display only the first one ?

Any hint to speed up the process ? I tried LoadThumbnail instead of LoadBitmap but no real differences, except that I could not put white background with Canvas Resize...

Question:
Is it possible to choose and display a thumbnail of a single page from a pdf (like LoadBitmap with a page argument) ? We could then browse the pdf with a previous/next page buttons on the web page, that would be great!

Thanks for your quick answers and keep on maintaining this software, this is really cool.
