    MuPDF is the best. PDFium(Qt) is second. XPDF(Poppler) is third. You choose the better one for your app. You need to pay attention to license issue.

      @artwaw Hi, sir. I have met the same problem. Did you solve it yet? I use qtcreator on windows, and I have a Qt5Pdf.dll in my bin directory. But when I use QT += pdf, I got the same error, Unknown modules in QT: pdf.

      @zhenghan Hi, sorry for late reply - I just built it from source, signed and installed. Like you did, from what I see.

      For more information please re-read.

      Kind Regards,
      Artur

        I am successfully using PoDoFo from vcpkg for manipulating PDF (merging files, adding text content ,etc) files in my Qt 6.1 cmake project. Adding digital signatures with it should be possible ( I have read some code for it in the library but I don't have a use-case currently).
        Be sure to install the [fontconfig] version of podofo otherwise you will get unexpected crashes on windows when drawing text with fonts.
        Coding with it is quite straightforward although the documentation could be better - but I am no fluent c++ coder.
