Overview
RadPdfProcessing for WinForms is a document-processing library that enables your applications to easily generate, import and export PDF documents. The API contains two different editors. You can choose between editing in a flow-like manner with the RadFixedDocumentEditor or customizing the PDF document structure with the FixedContentEditor.

The document library model supports:
Pages
Add, modify or delete a page in a PDF document. Set page properties, including page size, orientation and more.
Automatic layout
RadPdfProcessing enables you to easily insert content that flows between pages with the help of blocks, tables and lists.
Images
Decoded on demand to maximize performance, without losing the encoded image data. The API also enables you to control the image quality when saving the document.
Geometries
Describe and draw two-dimensional shapes, including lines, paths, Bezier curves, arcs, rectangles and more.
Form Xobjects
Describe and bundle multiple objects like text, images, vectors and more elements into a single object within a PDF document and reuse it as many times as you need. This promotes efficiency and optimal document size.
-
Interactive Forms
Create fillable PDF forms to collect user information. Use interactive textboxes, radio-buttons, listboxes and similar controls to allow the user to fill in data, save and digitally sign the PDF document. -
Digital Signature
The digital signature feature enables you to sign and validate PDF documents.
Clipping
Defines the outline of other content elements like images and paths.
Annotations
Associate an object with a location on a page of the PDF document.
Destinations

Colors and Color Spaces

Fonts
Support for the standard PDF fonts, Type0, Type1, CIDFontType2, TrueType and more.
Text and Graphic Properties
Provide options for changing the properties of the different elements in the document elements so you can achieve a unique look.
Encryption
Protect your PDF content with or without using a password.
Merge Documents
Combine pages of multiple PDF documents into a single PDF file.
PdfFileStream
The API exposes functionality for exporting PDF files with unmatched performance and minimized memory footprint. Extremely useful when you need to add content to an existing document, merge or split documents.
Export to PDF and Plain Text
Converting to plain text is very useful for indexing purposes, e.g. if you want a “search” function in a bunch of PDFs.
