wPDF V4 is available now

    • Offizieller Beitrag

    Used alone, with your own component or linked with WPTools, wPDF instantly creates PDF files at high speed.

    The new wPDF4 engine includes improved GDI support. It also offers a new font embedding mode: EmbedType3. Type 3 fonts are little font programs, only the required glyphs are created and embedded. Used for Asian languages, this can reduce the size of the created PDF files dramatically.

    wPDF V4 can also attach files, i.e. the document original data to a PDF file.

    It can also integrate custom XMP data into the PDF metadata. It also supports the copyright information strings.

    The new demo (includes VCL) is available here:
