PDF Toolkit Capabilities?

Hi There,

I am looking to see if your product provides the following capabilities:

Intro:
We are creating a web based .NET application that requires a variety of inputs into a database. from that database of inputs, we need to have the web application create a report with preset templates and then have all of the information fill into this report based on the data from the databases. This information would be compiled and saved on the server, where a user would be able to come to the site, login and save the PDF.

The items we need to know:

  1. The ability to do the above task.
  2. The ability to have the PDF calculate items in a table after the fact. In adobe acrobat, you can create a table and allow the user of that PDF document, enter items and have the chart tally up those items. We want the last page of the above mentioned pdf be coded to do that.
  3. What is the cost of the product
  4. Do you offer the product for testing prior to purchase

Hi,

Thank you for considering Aspose.

Creating PDF with table from database is supported. You can refer to our Northwind demos. But calculating in the table is not supported. As a workaround you can extract the data into a DataTable, modify the DataTable with calculated values and then creating PDF from the DataTable.

You can evaluate the product freely. You can get the pricing information at http://www.aspose.com/purchase/default.aspx.

To confirm the question I asked, which was not answered:

will the product create the PDF in the system and save the file without user input?

In other words, the person clicks create PDF, and in the background the system generates the PDF and saves it to a local drive on the webserver?

Yes it is supported.
