What is PDF Library?

Introducing a compact and efficient PDF library designed for the creation, editing, display, and printing of Acrobat PDF documents. This PDF API is not only lightweight but also swift, making it simple to integrate into various projects while being entirely developed in Java. The design of the API eliminates the necessity of understanding the intricate PDF specifications for PDF creation. We strive to obscure the complicated aspects while still providing you with near-total control over the PDF content. Wherever feasible, we leverage standard Java classes; for instance, pages are organized in a java.util.List, allowing for effortless manipulation, such as transferring pages between documents. This leads to an API that is both smaller and more user-friendly. Additionally, the Viewer Extension facilitates the parsing of PDFs and their conversion into bitmap formats for display, as well as saving them as bitmap images (like TIFF) or for printing purposes. While Java 5 claims to support direct PDF printing, the results can often be subpar, and its support for features such as annotations and encrypted documents is frequently lacking. Our PDF library addresses these shortcomings, ensuring reliable and high-quality results across all PDF files. Ultimately, this makes it an essential tool for developers looking to work with PDF documents seamlessly.

What is Aquaforest SDK?

The Aquaforest SDK is a comprehensive toolkit tailored for PDF processing, featuring capabilities such as content extraction, the creation of searchable PDFs, and advanced OCR functionalities that utilize both the standard Aquaforest engine and the upgraded Canon IRIS engine, as well as handwriting recognition through Google and Microsoft APIs. It includes a powerful PDF and barcode toolkit optimized for performance, capable of utilizing up to 64 processing cores for various tasks. This SDK enables efficient analysis of PDF documents, automating the extraction of name/value pairs for subsequent applications. Among its extensive manipulation options are features for merging PDFs, managing attachments, extracting content, processing XMP metadata, and ensuring PDF/A compliance, among others. The standard OCR engine remarkably supports 23 languages and is accessible across all SDK versions, which enhances its versatility in multiple contexts. In addition, the tool integrates effortlessly with cloud OCR services from Google and Microsoft, providing significant advantages for specialized tasks like handwriting recognition. The SDK also excels in reading and identifying a diverse array of standard barcode formats, further expanding its potential use cases in various industries. With continuous updates and improvements, the Aquaforest SDK remains a leading choice for developers seeking robust PDF processing solutions.
