Sperren Sie PDF-Formulare durch Abflachen von Feldern

Februar 12, 2026
Aktivieren Sie WinForms-Apps, um Formularfelder in PDF-Dokumenten abzuflachen und Benutzereingaben in statische Seiteninhalte umzuwandeln, die nicht verändert werden können.

Flattening form fields is the process of converting interactive PDF form elements into static content within the document. Once flattened, the data entered into fields becomes part of the page itself, preventing further editing or manipulation. This ensures that the document can be viewed consistently across devices and PDF readers, while preserving the integrity of the submitted information. It is particularly valuable for finalized contracts, reports, and compliance documents where maintaining an accurate, unalterable record is essential.

Several WinForms PDF components allow you to flatten form fields, including:

  • Telerik UI for WinForms PdfProcessing (part of Telerik UI for WinForms) supports programmatic flattening of AcroForm fields so forms can be locked with preserved layout.
  • ImageGear for .NET by Accusoft provides APIs to convert form fields into static page content, removing interactivity and preserving entered data.
  • XFINIUM.PDF WINDOWS/MAC EDITION enables form fields to be flattened during processing, embedding field values into the document content.
  • Syncfusion WinForms PDF (part of Syncfusion Essential Studio Document SDK) allows developers to flatten individual fields or entire forms to prevent editing before sharing.

Führen Sie mehrere Dokumente zu einem einzigen PDF zusammen, um das Teilen zu vereinfachen, die Organisation zu verbessern und eine ausgefeilte, professionelle Präsentation zu bewahren.

Merging PDFs in a PDF viewer allows users to combine multiple PDF files into a single, unified document directly within the viewing application, without the need for external tools. This capability improves document management by preserving original formatting, page order, and visual consistency while reducing file clutter and simplifying sharing. By consolidating related content into one professional-looking file, users can improve collaboration, ensure clearer communication, and save time otherwise spent managing multiple attachments. Common use cases include compiling reports from multiple contributors, combining invoices or statements for record-keeping, assembling project documentation, or preparing complete proposals and presentations for clients and stakeholders.

Aufrechterhalten der Konformität mit der E-Fakturierung im PDF-Format

Februar 2, 2026
PDF Xpansion SDK v17.2.7 bietet integriert die Unterstützung für ZUGFeRD 2.4 und hilft Entwicklern, konforme E-Rechnungen gemäß den aktuellen europäischen Standards aufrechtzuerhalten.

PDF Xpansion SDK E-Invoicing by soft Xpansion is a comprehensive software development kit for creating, processing, and managing electronic invoices in compliance with international standards. It simplifies integration into existing applications and supports structured invoice data in XML as well as hybrid PDF/A formats, including common standards such as ZUGFeRD, Factur-X, and XRechnung. The SDK enables developers to create, edit, display, and extract data from compliant invoices, supporting automated digital invoicing workflows, legal conformity, and straightforward connection with accounting or enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems.

The PDF Xpansion SDK v17.2.7 update adds support for ZUGFeRD 2.4, allowing applications to generate and process e-invoicing documents that align with the latest version of the German and European e-invoicing standard based on EN 16931 (European Norm 16931). For software developers, this support ensures continued compatibility with evolving regulatory requirements, improves interoperability with trading partners and public sector systems, and reduces the risk of invoice rejection caused by outdated schemas or validation rules. By targeting ZUGFeRD 2.4, applications built on the SDK can handle current e-invoicing profiles with greater reliability while remaining suitable for long-term maintenance in compliance-focused environments.

To see a full list of what's new in v17.2.7, see our release notes for PDF Xpansion SDK E-Invoicing Creation, Receipt or Receipt Plus.

PDF Xpansion SDK E-Invoicing is available in 3 variations, licensed per company location where developers use the SDKs. Optional Add-Ons are available which require ownership of SDK site licenses.
