RTF, PDF and HTML components

WPCubed wordprocessing controls

Text editing is an integral component of many applications. With the components produced by WPCubed GmbH you can offer your customers state of the art embedded wordprocessing - integrated directly into your application.

Our technology can also be easily integrated into legacy applications, i.e. VB6 applications or programs written in C or C++.

We also market components for server side (ASP) text creation and manipulation.

Our word processing engine is not based on the Windows® DLL "Richedit". It has been created from scratch using optimized code and consequently does not require any 3rd party DLLs to operate. Optionally it can make use of internal spell checking, PDF export and also reporting.

WPTools - 100% VCL word processing solution

WPTools Version 6 - word processing VCL

If you work with Delphi or C++Builder our WPTools V6 is perfect for You. It is a native VCL Component with all the editing features which are common to powerful wordprocessing applications and wordprocessing controls. With the PRO and Premium License you get 100% object pascal sourcecoce. WPTools can be used as a powerful word processor and to create programmatically controlled text. It has a very versatile mail-merge feature which can be enhanced with the "WPReporter addon" to also work with bands. So it is THE tool to create contracts and similar documents under program control. Version 6 comes with innovative label printing and a special HTML mode.

WPTools includes support for Delphi XE2 and XE3. The PRO version also supports 64 bit.

 

TextDynamic .NET and TextDynamic ActiveX

TextDynamic - word processing and edit control for .NET as ActiveX and DLL.

TextDynamic is a royalty free word processing and reporting control which can be embedded into applications.

It can be used to create text in code or to offer the end user WYSIWYG editing features. TextDynamic optionally integrates spell check (with "while you write" technology) and PDF export. You can also use it to convert documents, such as RTF (Rich Text Format) to HTML or RTF to PDF. Optionally it is also possible to convert text pages into a multi-page monochrome TIFF file.

TextDynamic includes a managed .NET wrapper DLL (its C# source is included with the full version). So you can use the component in WinForm applications developed with .NET development tools, such as VisualStudio 2008. At no extra charge we also include an ActiveX edition to use TextDynamic in VC, Visual Basic 6, and MS Access. Furthermore, you can use TextDynamic in C++ Projects without any wrapper. You only need to call an easy to use method in the engine DLL and you get a fully functional editing window.

Our product wRTF2PDF TextDynamic Server has a very similar programing interface as TextDynamic. So you can choose between an end user editing control and a server specialized control, but always using similar code.

TextDynamic as easy to integrate editing plugin

TextDynamic can also be used in a "popup editor mode". Here you only have to call one method from the DLL to create an editor window. It will include a toolbar, ruler and even a secondary editor window for the display of thumbnails. This editor window can be displayed on your form. You do not need any COM to do this, just load the DLL dynamically. This makes it very easy to upgrade legacy applications significantly and provide your customers with high end word processing capabilities right in your application.

PDF View, Print and Manipulation Components

WPViewPDF is a powerful pdf viewer component to display and print PDF files. You will need a PDF viewing component if you want to embed PDF display into your application or if you need to load PDF data from memory. For example you can use our viewer WPViewPDF to display digital copies of files which were printed by your application.

Ideally You can use our tools (wPDF, TextDynamic, wPDFControl) to create the PDF data to be displayed, but WPViewPDF will also work with many other PDF creators.
With the WPViewPDF PLUS license You can also merge and split PDF files, and print text and images on certain pages (akn PDF stamping).

WPViewPDF V3 is available now. We completely re-designed the logic which is required to load, render and manipulate PDF data to create this new version. It makes use of clever and effective caching for quick response times. It also makes use of multithreading for better user interaction.

You can download the Demo here: (PDFViewDemo.exe - 5MB)

WPViewPDF includes support for Delphi XE2 and XE3, 32 and 64 bit.

 
::WPViewPDF::  ::WPViewPDF PLUS:: 
Display a PDF files embedded in Your Application
Add other PDF files to the viewer to display as one document
Print PDF Files from the viewer or using the DLL function pdfPrint()
Convert certain Pages in a PDF to Bitmaps (JPEG, PNG)
Add images or overlay metafiles which are displayed and printed
Delete pages to hide them in display (with PLUS License You can save the changes to a new PDF ile)

wRTF2PDF / TextDynamic Server

wRTF2PDF / TextDynamic Server

Create and modify documents under program control (.NET, ASP, ActiveX, DLL)

With TextDynamic we market a powerful word processing and RTF reporting tool. Similar possibilities are available in wRTF2PDF/TextDynamic Server, only this control is optimized to be a non visual server control. You can use its powerful API to create and modify documents, save as RTF or HTML and of course PDF. You can license both tools as a bundle. (View the online version of the TextDynamic Manual...)

wRTF2PDF/TextDynamic Server used to be an addon to wPDFControl - and as such has the complete featureset and programming interface of wPDFControl. The RTF to PDF conversion can be initiated whether using the new COM based TextDynamic interfaces or the "old" commands which are also compatible to legacy applications and do not require COM.


You can use wRTF2PDF/TextDynamic Server on a webserver with ASP and ASP.NET - please visit our test server.

 
::What to do with wRTF2PDF / TextDynamic Server::  ::Options:: 
Create text in code (The control is based upon a very efficient integrated word processing engine)
Update fields (mail merge) or insert images into documents
Convert HTML or RTF to PDF
Create documents under ASP or ASP.NET (demo ...)
Convert metafiles to PDF

PDF creation directly from Your Application?

Modern applications are expected to produce digital copies of their print outs, either for archive purposes or sending as e-mails attachments. There are several free PDF printer drivers available, so why not take one of those to create the PDF files? Because the printer drivers require separate installation, are often much slower than an embedded solution and it is difficult to control their output. With our tools you can select the encryption, font embedding directly from your application. You can create PDF/A files, when exporting from our word processing engine (WPTools, TextDynamic) even including PDF tagging for better accessibility of the PDF files.

PDF Creation Tools

wPDF - create PDF

PDF Creator VCL (Delphi, C++Builder)
The VCL product wPDF was one of the first to offer a drawing surface (TCanvas) to create PDF files using standard GDI methods. This feature has been made possible by a comprehensive and carefully designed metafile (EMF) to PDF conversion engine. The vector drawing and text will not be converted to a bitmap but will be preserved in PDF format. This avoids quality loss when PDF files are printed and reduces the size of the files as well. The technology used by wPDF works so well that the company Combit GmbH has decided to use it in their reporting product List & Label which is successful worldwide. wPDF comes with interface units to export directly from ReportBuilder, RAVE, QuickReport, ACE, FastReport and WPTools.

.NET, ActiveX (VS2010, VB6, VC ...)
The product wPDFControl implements our reliable wPDF technology to be used with Win32 .NET applications. An OCX is included for use in Visual Basic programs. Since the engine DLL can be accessed using the provided C++ header files you can also use it in VC applications without the need to import an ActiveX interface.
wPDFControl V3 supports encrpytion, compression and font embedding. You can use it to convert metafiles (EMF) to PDF or use its device handle (HDC) with standard GDI API calls.
