AccuSoft ImageGear Professional
Enhanced Adobe® PDF Library Support
All versions of ImageGear® incorporate the latest Adobe PDF library,
allowing developers to automatically conform to the highest PDF
(Portable Document Format) Language Standard and also open and process
PostScript (PS) and Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files.
PDF is the recognized standard for document
distribution and display on the Web,
where page fidelity is a requirement.
Quickly build an ActiveX or DLL application — an ideal SDK for Adobe Reader and Acrobat developers
Highlights
- Latest Adobe PDF library support - 100% Adobe Acrobat compatible on Win32, Linux (Intel), AIX, Sun Solaris and Mac OSX platforms (view PDF support for HP-UX or Linux (PPC) platforms)
- Quickly build ActiveX or DLL applications (PDF .NET SDKs are also available)
- Easily create PDF searchable text from scanned text
- Provide more control of displaying individual CMYK channels and Pantone spot colors in a PDF
- Quickly add a wide variety of annotations to a PDF document
- Easily read and write to and from PDF, PostScript, and Encapsulated PostScript files
- Allows opening and saving of files with different compression schemes
- Preserves vector data when saving PDF files
Available Features
- Convert scanned pages into PDF searchable text by applying
optical character recognition (OCR) methods to the text images and
converting them into PDF text elements. The text elements are
overlaid over the recognizable words and are not visible. This is
similar to the Paper Capture function in Adobe Standard that creates
a PDF document that displays the image and also contains text data.
- Provide more control of displaying individual CMYK channels and
Pantone spot colors in a PDF. The application developer can create
applications that control whether just one or more channels are
displayed and which Pantone spot colors are displayed from a PDF
file.
- Add annotations to a PDF document. Annotation marks include
text, line, freehand polyline, rectangle, ellipse, polygon, polyline,
audio, image, ruler, protractor, encryption, button, hot spot and
rich text. This version also includes the ability to import and
export these marks to XML files. The application developer has the
flexibility to “burn” these annotations into the PDF file as a true
Adobe annotation or to save them in a separate file.
- Full support of PDF Standard, allowing for the opening and processing
of any valid PDF, PS or EPS file
- Linearization, to create page-independent PDF documents to facilitate the delivery of
large documents over the Web
- Native PDF document printing renders document content directly to the
printer, providing more speed and reducing memory requirements
- Encryption for secure Web delivery
- Files in Memory (FIM) support, to keep temporary files in memory, instead of on disk, resulting in
significantly increased processing speeds
- Embed and subset fonts into PDFs to ensure the document is viewed exactly as it was created
- Double Byte support so that information can be shared across multiple languages including Japanese, Chinese,
Korean, Arabic and Hebrew
- Additional font support providing listing of available host system fonts and finding system/PDF font matches,
as well as font creation from system fonts and for the editing of font information
- PDF Text Extraction to allow for the extraction of words from PDF documents or specified pages,
including word enumerating and sorting and obtaining word layouts, styles and characters
- PDF Modification so that additional PDF pages may be inserted
- Document metadata can be retrieved and set for a PDF document such that
it corresponds to the document’s information dictionary
- Optimization to eliminate redundancy in the storage of files,
and the creation
of smaller PDF files
- Compression to improve the storage of graphics in PDF files, minimizing the size of stored PDF documents (JPEG, CCITT, LZW, deflate and JBIG2 compression schemes)
