PDF SDKs
-
One of my co-workers is seeking a free (or super low cost) PDF SDK that allows for reading, writing and display of PDFs. I know about Foxit's SDK, but they don't list a price on their website. I found CutePDF[^], and they have some reasonable prices/offerings. Anyone have any experience or suggestions with this? TIA.

Bad Astronomy |VCF|wxWidgets|WTLThis guy has some articles here and I think his stuff looks pretty good. I started to use it on a project and then I red-flagged on something the client wanted and never went any further. The support responses are good and it all seemed like it was going to be the real deal and a good thing. http://www.tallcomponents.com/[^]

Thank you for the link; looks like this is a project "to follow" ... but we cannot implement alpha based software in our production code. I will, however, bookmark it and send this onto the other group as a "project to watch for" ... Thank you.

Bad Astronomy |VCF|wxWidgets|WTLOk, the way I create PDFs for free: 1. Create a HP Laser Jet 2100 PS printer in windows (locally or on domain) call is PSGenerator. 2. Now when you create a print job, using the printer PSGenerator, set the output file name eg. Job.ps, this will write a postscript file. 3. Once job is finished, use GhostScipt converting Postscript to PDF. It works quite well, if you require futher details email me direct and I'll send you further details, I written my own report generator which can output to many formats. For reading I just use Foxit or Adobe Reader. Hope this helps.
P Think of the environment; please don't print this message unless you really need to.

Bad Astronomy |VCF|wxWidgets|WTLWe use ABCpdf. The Pro version is ~$400 but if you don't mind linking to their site they give it to you for free. It has the advantage that you can create your own form elements - which was important for us. It's also pretty easy to work with and is quite fast. Works for web or apps (we use it for web). http://www.websupergoo.com/abcpdf-1.htm
