Hello Thomas, I have not really "evaluated it" ( just did the basic test and saw it works as modern compatible viewer you can embed in vfp ) - it was mentioned on foxite last week or so .. maybe you can ask Kennet and Bernard on this thread ( https://www.foxite.com/archives/0000499132.htm ).

You can also check "Webkit Activex" at https://www.webkitx.com/doc/light/About.html
they have many step by step guides, including one for vfp9: https://www.webkitx.com/doc/light/Getting%20Started%20with%20FoxPro%209.html

not certainly free, but the fact it ( says ) it can ( among many many other features ) do:

PDF Viewer - can view PDF files
Save HTML as PDF and Printing HTML & Markup features
CallByName JavaScript functions from executable
JavaScript Callbacks, calling JavaScript functions on a specific V8 Context, from Native code

makes it a very attractive tool for the price.
