PDF Reading And Writing

Provides APIs to read and write PDF files in custom applications. This gives developers direct access to core PDF handling functions for software that needs to open existing files, generate new output, or manage PDF content as part of document workflows.

Raster PDF Viewing

Supports raster viewing of PDF files so applications can render PDF pages for on-screen display. This is useful in interfaces where users need to inspect documents visually, navigate page content, and work with PDFs inside the application.

PDF Update Operations

Includes the ability to update existing PDF files. Developers can use these APIs when applications need to modify PDF content or structure without rebuilding documents from scratch, helping support editing and maintenance workflows around existing files.

Text And Content Extraction

Extracts text, images, hyperlinks, and metadata from PDF documents. This supports applications that need to inspect file contents, reuse embedded information, search document data, or feed extracted PDF content into indexing, review, or processing pipelines.

Page-Level Control

Provides complete control of pages in existing PDF documents. Applications can work with page content and structure directly, which is useful for workflows that need page management, document assembly, or targeted changes within multi-page PDF files.

PDF Conversion Capabilities

Supports conversion workflows centered on PDF files. Developers can use the SDK in applications that need to transform source content into PDF output or process PDF documents into forms better suited to viewing, storage, archival, or downstream use.

PDF/A Archival Output

Includes conversion to PDF/A documents for archival-ready output. This helps applications create PDF files intended for long-term preservation scenarios where document retention and standards-based archival formats are part of the workflow.
