PDFlayout Plus - A dll for your pdf-files... Royalty free!
With
this dll you can get all layout-properties (listed below) from
pdf-files. Page by page! As a second value you can send the page number!
You can use it with all well known IDEs (.NET-IDEs, too!).
Try it with Visual Basic, VBA, Delphi, C, C++, ...
All
my dlls are working fine with .NET-projects, too! Like always it
depends on how you do it. Here is a complete C#-project "ready to run"
with the PDFtext.dll included. It's made with the newest Visual C#
Express 2008...
PDFtext_CSharp35_project.zip (906 kb)
About installation and working with the dll...
This dll doesn't have an entry point so it's not necessary to register it.
Only copying into the system32-directory or in the directory where your application is installed.
If you're using vba (from ms access or excel for example) you should declare the functions as private and not public.
Using .NET-environments (like MS Visual Studio) it's often better (to
avoid stack imbalance errors) to change the parameter-types from
longinteger to integer.
PDFlayout Plus...
... with the functions:
GetPDFPageCount for the number of pages
GetPDFFormat for the document format (1=portrait/0=landscape)
GetPDFPageWidth for the document width (in pixel)
GetPDFPageHeight for the document height (in pixel)
GetPDFColourStyle for the used colour type/colour scheme (cmyk, rgb, gray)
GetPDFLayerCount for the number of layers/document levels
GetPDFPageLayout for the page layout
GetPDFPageMode for the page mode
GetPDFeFonts shows the embedded fonts
Shareware- and full version... The differences
All functions from the full version are in the shareware-version, too. When a value will be returned by the dll first
a window with a shareware note opens - when you click on "OK" you get the value.
So you can test the quality of all functions. This messages don't pop up in the
full version! If you've already build applications with the dlls out of the shareware
version don't through them away - if you buy the full version you only have to
replace the dlls (de-/register). That's all!
Have a look in the help-file here:
plplussv.txt!
What you get ordering the full version...
For the dll you get a special test program. It contains a file dialog and
buttons for all functions. A second help-file is included with all necessary informations
about the dll and the functions and code samples
for delphi and vba/visual basic.
Complete delphi- and vb(a)-projects are included, too. So you'll have
fast success!
The PDFlayout Plus-dll is a standard-dll - so it's not a problem to
work with any other ide/programming language. Please test it.
What can i do with the modules of the full version...
It's for your distributed applications... Commercial apps, too!
Not alone... only as an included function library. The functions must be a part of your
app - it's not allowed to distribute the libraries alone! With your app the libraries
can be distributed without paying anymore... It's royalty free! Buy the dll one time and distribute it as often as you want.
