As part of the ongoing series on Planet PDF's sponsors, we wanted to highlight PDFTron and its innovative PDFNet SDK v4 which was released in February. The latest version added full Java support to the PDF library. Version 4.0 also includes a new Java interface that offers API functionality as a set of Java classes to give developers an easier and more expedient way to integrate PDFTron's PDFNet API into already existing applications.
Previous releases had supported developers using .NET, C and C++. A PDFNet SDK for Java offers ease of integration with other applications and Version 4.0 features several pieces of Java sample code as part of the standard distribution of PDFNet SDK.
The program offers a powerful PDF developer toolkit for users working with PDF files at all levels. It offers developers full power to implement and create PDF solutions that offer full PDF functionality without needing to utilize any third-party software.
PDFNet SDK is available as a .NET component and as a cross-platform Java and C/C++ PDF library available on a wide range of platforms (i.e. Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris, etc).
The feature rich PDFNet SDK 4.0 offers PDF security, content extraction, indexing, search features, forms, pre-press workflows, document archival and content management.
Users can modify page content, bookmarks, annotations and other using PDFNet's content editing API.
The company also features a dynamic and updated sample code library for users online. The library features ready to go code for creating bookmarks, adding images, and boosting security for files.
In addition, the library features code for PDFDocMemory that enables users to learn how to read/write a PDF document from/to memory buffer. This is definitely a time-saver in terms of using applications that work with dynamic PDF documents that don't need to be saved to disk.
PDFTron's PDFNet SDK 4.0 also offers compatibility with the newly released PDF standard by giving users the power to process any valid PDF document created by other sources, and is also compatible with all PDF revisions (from Acrobat 1 to 8). This is particularly important to users to who are tasked to support not only the latest standard but all the varied PDF versions.
The program makes the same API in both managed and native versions for allowing easier migrations between managed and native environments. Additionally, the program offers a wide range of compatibility in terms of operating systems offering support for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux as well as other platforms.
PDFTron keeps its customer focus by offering a wide range of license types so users can license specifically the functionality required for their specific applications. The company offers flexible upgrading if users desire additional features after the initial purchase. Licenses are offered including: CPU, Site, Enterprise, OEM/Redistributable, and even Custom licensing while allowing you to upgrade easily if more functionality is needed down the road.
OK, so you want to stamp your document. Maybe you need to give reviewers some advice about the document's status or sensitivity. This tip from author Ted Padova demonstrates how to add stamps with the Stamp Tool along with related comments.
