The current capabilities are: multiple Zoom Ratio, Export to several formats (HTML, Text, Csv), Client Window hosting (see screen shoot), cool interface, easy navigation, Printable pages selection. This new update remove some innecesary code and make the component lighter but keepping the export functionallity. Still in a beta fase but is good enought to be used as a base for a production application.

Thanks Michael for your comment.
I think is easy to reduce the size supressing some optional functionallity (i.e. Range Selector or the export classes) to make it smaller, remember that VB make not really small components, this classes was not designed at the first to be a separated component, embedding the code in your project will eliminate the additional statup code that vb adds to a compiled component. Anyway I'll work with a small option for this..

Good idea, decent printing is quite tricky to do in VB, one thing though rotated text fails to print (possibly only using NT)
