Scribd style document rendering on ASP.NET

I have large documents (HTML or Text) (think legal documents/regulatory documents etc.) that need to made readable i.e. paged, w开发者_如何学Pythonith some rich-text markup, allowing user highlighting and annotation etc.

I was thinking of using a Scribd style rendering or as on Secwatch.com (see here). Any thoughts how I can go about it? We are on ASP.NET.

Found one article that does something similar: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/ckrause/Ajax-browser-based06162006015526AM/Ajax-browser-based.aspx?ArticleID=548dfae2-4251-4c9a-b659-bfe88fd55c62

Needs some plugin, am not sure if you are OK to go for a third party control.

EDIT(s): 1) Just realized that Scribd runs of Ruby on the Rails. I guess that could be a starting point if you want to look at developing something on your own. (What does RoR have that ASP.NET doesn't for this particluar case?) 2) Scribd provides an API, but mostly for interfacing your app to sribd.com. However, it might give you ideas.
