Aspose.PDF functionalities to replace QuickPDF

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hi,

We were looking for a PDF SDK for.Net. Our project is a windows application built using C# and .net framework. We generate a good amount of reports using Active Report Tool,

after which we need to save all those reports into PDF format. Here, we are doing below set of operations using “QuickPDF” tool as of now, which we are planning to replace with your tool.

  1. Merging Multiple PDF pages -

  2. Adding Page Numbers text at page footers/as per user customization.

  3. Adding Logo at page footers/as per user customization.

  4. TOC(table of contents) page generation. Here, we write text lines and hyperlink each line so that user can navigate from Table of contents to specific pdf page.

  5. Accessing some of the pdf page related attributes like getting PageCount, Page Size, Loading PDF document in memory, Deleting pages within pdf, Saving pdf files to files system/memory etc.

  6. Converting Office Docs to PDF format. (This is optional, if you can support, it will be great).

If you can confirm that your tool supports all the above functionalities, then will download the trial version and start replacing all the existing functionalities with your SDK and will be testing our product. Once it passes QA then, will purchase your product, until then will be using trial version of your SDK.

As of now, we are using QuickPDF for doing all the above operations, so we are planning to replace QuickPDF with your SDK if it suits our needs. So we need to spend a lot of time of time and resources as we need to replace an entire third party library without breaking any existing functionalities. Hope you understood our situation.

Please let us know if you need any other information and guide us how we can proceed further and what SDK/product that we need to download.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Prathap

Thanks for showing interest in our API. We would like to share with you that Aspose.PDF for .NET supports all of the features that you have mentioned. Please check some online documentation related to your requirements:

Please note that Aspose.PDF for .NET does support the conversion of PDF documents into Office Docs like .docx/.doc, .ppt/.pptx, .xls/.xlsx, etc. However, you will need to use Aspose.Words, Aspose.Cells, or Aspose.Slides in order to convert office file formats into the PDF.

Furthermore, you can freely visit and explore the online documentation of Aspose.PDF for .NET as well as free Demos hosted over GitHub and let us know in case you need more information.

Hi,
Good to know that your API meets all our needs. We have decided to go and start implementing trial version.

For TOC page, we hope navigating to other pages is also supported.This feature is very important to us. But from the documentation code we couldn’t figure out where exactly we are setting the hyperlinking to other pages. Can you please add some sample code here and let us know, how to set the hyperlink for TOC page lines?

Regards,
Prathap

In the above article, below is the line that sets the destination for the link against a heading:

// Specify the destination page for heading object
heading2.DestinationPage = doc.Pages[i + 2];

Furthermore, you can also add local hyperlinks using the API to the any text that can point to any of the pages inside a PDF:

Thanks for the info.

For office conversions, we already have the licensed versions of Aspose.Cells and Aspose.Slides and we are okay to buy Aspose.Words as well.
Can you please redirect us the to the documentation which explains the conversion from office format (pptx, doc, .xls, .xlsx) to pdf format?

Thanks,
Prathap
