Introduction > WPViewPDF Standard

WPViewPDF is meant to be a viewer for PDF text created by your application.

It can convert PDF pages to bitmaps (JPEG, PNG and BMP), metafiles and print to a windows device (HDC). You can also use a PDF file as background for a different PDF file for print out (with "PLUS" also save to a new PDF file)

It can load several PDF files and display and print it as if it was just one.

Of course printing of the PDF is possible.

WPViewPDF is extremely useful if you need to store each printed output. You can create a database with all the output which was produced by your application together with the date when a letter was sent. This makes it possible to later check when and what was sent, and also resend an exact copy.

You can also use WPViewPDF to extract attachment data, i.e. ZUGFeRD XML

WPViewPDf Standard does not support the creation of fields, checkboxes and popups. The other supported annotation types and draw objects can be created and printed, but it is not possible to save them.

WPViewPDF Standard does not support the modification of fields and annotations which is described here.

BTW - WPViewPDF does not use cache files - it does not have to write images of the current page to temporary files to stay responsive.

WPViewPDF works in 32bit and 64bit mode (2 different sets of DLLs are provided)

Powerful interface code for Delphi-VCL (object pascal) and .NET (C#) is included.

For legacy products you can also use WPViewPDF with the included interface OCX.
