Can I use PDFWebViewer.NET with Windows Azure?

Yes you can. We recommend using blobs to store your PDF documents. This allows you to update the documents without redeploying your application and ensures the documents are persisted over time. Support for reading PDF documents from Azure blobs is not included in the product. You can extend the product by implementing a custom storage provider for Azure blobs. Chapter 6 of the Developer Guide explains what storage providers do and how you can implement your own version. A full Azure demo will be included in an upcoming version of PDFWebViewer.NET.
