================================================ PDFlib - A library for generating PDF on the fly ================================================ Portable C library for dynamically generating PDF ("Adobe Acrobat") files, with support for many other programming languages. The PDFlib distribution is available from www.pdflib.com PDFlib is a library for generating PDF files. It offers an API with support for text, vector graphics, raster image, and hypertext. Call PDFlib routines from within your client program and voila: dynamic PDF files! PDFlib is available on a wide variety of operating system platforms, and supports many programming languages and development environments: - C - C++ - Cobol - COM (Visual Basic, ASP, Windows Script Host, Delphi, and many others) - Java via the JNI, including servlets and JSP (but not EJB) - .NET framework (VB.NET, ASP.NET, C# and others). - Perl - PHP Hypertext Processor - Python - REALbasic - RPG - Ruby - Tcl An overview of PDFlib features can be found in the PDFlib tutorial and the PDFlib reference manual. Separate Windows editions of these manuals cover the COM, .NET, and REALbasic bindings. PDFlib flavors ============== The PDFlib software is available in different flavors (see the PDFlib tutorial for a detailed comparison): - PDFlib Lite Open-source edition for basic PDF generation, free for personal use. PDFlib Lite does not support all languages, and is not available on EBCDIC platforms. Important note: PDFlib Lite supports only a subset of PDFlib features. The differences are detailed in the PDFlib tutorial. - PDFlib The commercial edition adds various features for advanced PDF generation. - PDFlib+PDI Includes PDFlib plus the PDF Import library PDI which can be used to integrate pages from existing PDF documents in the generated output - PDFlib Personalization Server (PPS) Includes PDFlib+PDI, plus advanced block processing functions for easily personalizing PDF documents. PPS also includes the Block plugin for Adobe Acrobat which can be used to create PDFlib blocks interactively. Binary Packages =============== PDFlib, PDFlib+PDI, and PPS are available in binary form, and require a commercial license. All of these products are available in a single library, and can be evaluated without any restrictions without any license. However, unless a valid license key is applied a demo stamp will be generated across all pages. The binary packages support C plus various other language bindings. Instructions for using these packages can be found in doc/readme-binary.txt. PDFlib Lite Source Packages =========================== PDFlib Lite is available in source form, and can be used for free under certain conditions. Source code is also available for selected language wrappers. If you are working with a source code package you need an ANSI C compiler. Detailed instructions for building PDFlib from source code can be found in doc/readme-source-*.txt Documentation and Samples ========================= We provide the following material to assist you in using PDFlib successfully: - The mini samples (hello, image, pdfclock, etc.) are available in all packages and for all supported language bindings. They provide minimalistic sample code for text output, images, and vector graphics. The mini samples are mainly useful for testing your PDFlib installation, and for getting a very quick overview of writing PDFlib applications. The hello, pdfclock, chartab, and image examples work with PDFlib or PDFlib Lite. The invoice and quickreference examples require PDFlib+PDI, and demonstrate how to deal with existing PDF documents. The businesscard example requires the PDFlib Personalization Server (PPS), and contains a simple personalization example. - The starter samples are contained in all packages and are available for a variety of language bindings. They provide a useful generic starting point for important topics, and cover simple text and image output, Textflow and table formatting, PDF/A and PDF/X creation and other topics. The starter samples demonstrate the basic techniques for achieving a particular goal with PDFlib products. It is strongly recommended to take a look at the starter samples. - The PDFlib Tutorial, which is contained in all packages as a single PDF document, explains important programming concepts in more detail, using explanations, tables, and small or large pieces of sample code. If you start extending your code beyond the starter samples you should read up on relevant topics in the PDFlib Tutorial. - The PDFlib Reference, which is contained in all packages as a single PDF document, contains a concise description of all functions, parameters, and options which together comprise the PDFlib application programming interface (API). The PDFlib Reference is the definitive source for looking up parameter details, supported options, input conditions, and other programming rules which must be observed. Note that some versions of the PDFlib reference are incomplete, e.g. the Javadoc API listing for PDFlib and the PDFlib function listing on php.net. Make sure to always use the full PDFlib Reference when working with PDFlib. - The PDFlib Cookbook is a growing collection of PDFlib coding fragments for solving specific problems. Most Cookbook examples are written in the Java language, but can easily be adjusted to other programming languages since the PDFlib API is almost identical for all supported language bindings. The PDFlib Cookbook is maintained as a growing collection of sample programs. It is available on the Web at the following URL: www.pdflib.com/developer/cookbook Other PDFlib resources ====================== In addition to the PDFlib reference manual the following resources are available: - The PDFlib FAQ collects information about known bugs, patches, and workarounds: www.pdflib.com - The PDFlib mailing list discusses PDFlib deployment in a variety of environments. You can access the mailing list archives over the Web, and don't need to subscribe in order to use it: groups.yahoo.com/group/pdflib - Commercial PDFlib licensees are eligible to standard product support from PDFlib GmbH. Please send your inquiry along with your PDFlib license number to support@pdflib.com. - Customers with a valid support contract can benefit from additional advantages, including short response times and free minor and major updates; see our Web site for details.
