Detailed description of issue
{Description here}
Hello, Mr. Logan, I am a student trying to learn how to use pdF.js viewer. My project is the React project written with TS. When I tried to manipulate the viewer using the config.js file, the error “‘instance’ is not defined” occurred and the configuration in the file did not take effect. How do I edit the config.js file? Can you provide a demo for my reference? Thanks a million!

I tried to write this, but the configuration didn’t work either.

Hey there!

That is a Typescript issue and not an issue with Express. You’ll need to create a global typescript declaration file and assign instance as a global variable. This is something that we cannot do from within the library.

Thanks,
Logan
