AviTab
X-Plane plugin that displays a tablet to aid VR usage
AviTab is a plugin for the X-Plane flight simulator. It displays a tablet-like computer with a few apps in the cockpit. It is mainly used for flying in virtual reality. When flying in a simulator, one often needs to look up details in PDF charts, plane manuals, checklists or other documents. Using a PDF reader breaks the immersion because the virtual aviator either has to take off of their HMD or use other tools that can move windows into VR. AviTab tries to solve this problem by offering a PDF reader inside a native plugin for X-Plane. Using a plugin also opens possibilities for more apps inside the tablet, for example, to display information about the plane status or aid in navigation. When hovering over the edges of the tablet from a short distance, X-Plane will display green bars around the tablet. The upper bar can be used to grab the window and move it around inside the cockpit. -

OReader actually stands for Open Reader, it’s a documents management tool par an online pdf viewer. It’s a system more tuned for colleges and educational institutions as it has been created focusing their needs. In allows the tutors to upload the notes and reading materials on to the website so that the learners can view those reading materials online or if they choose, it lets them download those documents as well. Its a PHP project, so I have posted the source file along with the SQL file, and don't mind the simplicity of the app since this is my college project, not a fully fledged application. But you could improve it if you want, but do include me on thanks or credits, and do notify me if you have used my source.

ASP.NET PDF Viewer by GroupDocs
Secure, Browser-Agnostic ASP.NET PDF Viewer with DRM Features
This sample project is created by the GroupDocs showcase team to demonstrate key benefits of an ASP.NET PDF viewer built using the commercial library – GroupDocs.Viewer for .NET. The viewer allows you to display PDF documents across all standard web-browsers (IE8+, Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari 5+, Opera, etc.) without having to install any software or plugins on end-user machines. Another core feature – is the ability to display PDFs in a read-only mode, so that end users can’t download, print or copy original PDF files while viewing them in a browser. Please note that GroupDocs.Viewer for .NET is a paid library. In order to setup and run this project, you will need to download the GroupDocs.Viewer for .NET library from the GroupDocs website. For more details on the sample ASP.NET PDF viewer and to download the library, please read this article: > http://groupdocs.com/blog/asp-net-pdf-viewer-built-based-on-the-groupdocs-viewer-for-net-library -

AlphaCentauri
AlphaCentauri is a completely free Office tools application.
AlphaCentauri is a completely free office application, with various utilities resembling those distributed commercially on Windows. Functionalities are still quite limited compared to the commercial products, but more features will be added soon. Please note that update v1.1.0 has full featured programs, however you will see a watermark with "trial version" details. This is due to some features were used through Nevron's very useful and awesome libraries. Unfortunately, these libraries and dev tools are also very expensive. This should not interfere with working comfortably and saving clean docs. This is just a release version until I get my head around building those trialed features from scratch. If watermarks turn out annoying, one can always download the v.1.0.3 with basic features and UI. -
