PDF for .NET

Create PDF Documents from Your Applications

ComponentOne PDF™ for .NET allows you to create Adobe PDF documents from your applications. The commands provided for adding content to documents are similar to the ones available in the .NET Graphics class. So, if you know how to display text and graphics in .NET Graphics, then you already know how to use PDF for .NET. This powerful tool supports advanced features included in the PDF specification such as security, compression, outlining, hyper-linking, and attachments.

PDF for .NET Features

  • Control Document Information and Viewer PreferencesNew

    PDF for .NET allows you to add meta data to the PDF documents you create. Specify author, creation date, keywords, and so on. You can also provide default viewer preferences to be applied when the document is opened in the Adobe Reader. Specify the initial page layout, window position, as well as reader toolbar and menu visibility.

  • Owner and User Password Protection

    If your PDF documents contain sensitive information, you can encrypt them so that only authorized users can access it. There is a separate password for the owner of the document and for all other users. The user's access can be selectively restricted to allow only certain operations, such as viewing, printing, or editing the document.

  • Add Graphical Elements

    Add lines, rectangles, ellipses, pies, arcs, rounded rectangles, polygons, Bezier curves, and more.

  • Create an Outline Structure

    Most long PDF documents contain an outline structure that is displayed on a pane on the left of the reader. The outline makes it easy to browse through a document's structure and find specific topics. With PDF for .NET, you can build this outline structure by adding outline entries (bookmarks).

  • Add Hyperlinks and Local Links

    PDF for .NET provides methods for adding hyperlinks and hyperlink targets to your PDF documents. You can also add local links, that when clicked take the user to another location within the same PDF document. This type of link is useful when you want to implement some type of cross-referencing within the document, such as a table of contents or an index.
