Reader/Acrobat SDK license request

I'm developing an application in c# and this application displays the PDF document on a form. I have 3 questions as follows.

A question: I am currently using the axAcroPDF that is exposed in the free software Acrobat Reader. Now, if I deploy my application to my customer, should I make them acquire a license from Adobe for the drive or to use .NET Reader classes?

Two question: given that the Reader SDK is quite limited, I think using some of the Acrobat SDK classes in my application. In this case, how does the license - do I have my client by an Adobe Acrobat Std or Pro for each PC where my application is running? This means that every copy of Acrobat comes with 1 license for SDK, or can I buy 1 Acrobat and licenses for the SDK, or just buy the SDK separately.

Third question: the PDF Library SDK license is also related to Acrobat Std or Pro?

Kindly help with that because I called my dealer and they are not too sure about this. And I tried to look in the forums and I do make a vague idea but wants your confirmation before I inform my client on what to buy.

Thank you.

1. No, your users just need to have the reader on your computer.

2 - Yes, to be able to use the API COM Acrobat your clients must have Acrobat installed (as reader above) on the machines.

3. No, the license of the PDF library is separate and distinct.  If you want to use PDFL - the license.  And who would then remove the need to #1 and #2.

  • Allocation of licenses Acrobat SDK and server deployment

    Hello

    I have a few questions about the deployment of a .NET Web Application that uses the Acrobat SDK kit (only for the merging of PDF).  Currently I have a license for Adobe Acrobat (which gave me access to the SDK to develop fusion).  For other developers to work on a project, they will also each need their own license of Acrobat to develop with me, OK?

    I finished this project (once again, a .NET Web application) and it will be hosted on a web server as part of a larger site.  The application generates PDF reports and will merge together in 1 PDF documents.  The process will run on the web server when a user clicks a button to generate the reports.

    My question is, on the web server, what kind of license is needed?  Is there a redistributable that can be installed on the web server to the COM of AcroExch.PDDoc object (and everything else), or do we just buy another copy of Adobe Acrobat and install it on the server?

    If this is not clear, please let me know.

    Thank you!

    That's right, for redistribution and deployment of servers, you need the Adobe PDFLibrary.

    The Acrobat SDK kit does nothing by itself.  It is a set of APIs to work with Adobe Acrobat and Reader.  Since Acrobat and Reader are NOT AUTHORIZED (or technically appropriate) for use on a server, the answer is NO.

    When I try to create or convert a PDF file in Acrobat DC I get the error "your request could not be performed.

  • Acrobat SDK vs PDF Library SDK (especially for the AcroForms)

    Hi all

    I would like to develop an application for reading and setting the value within the AcroForm and a setting AcroForm shaped. For this purpose, I would use some of the existing API methods. I have a few questions:

    1) what are the differences of the SDK Acrobat and PDF Library SDK kit? (see the Documentation of the SDK Acrobat DC)

    Among others: kit SDK Acrobat and PDF Library SDK use the same PDF Library API? Just a different subset of it? What licensing and the pricing? Is my application above suggested a Library Application called "PDF"? What Acrobat Forms API - it is part of the extended for plug-in API but is not part of the PDF Library API?

    (2) what steps can I for the formatting and setting/read the value of an AcroForm?

    Can I use the two SDKs for this? (it seems that Yes, see Adobe PDF Library SDK |) Adobe Developer Connection) what are the advantages/disadvantages? What API methods come from? (Acrobat Forms API?)

    Thanks for all the info on these points

    The PDFLibrary SDK is a subset of the Acrobat SDK kit that can be used without the need for Acrobat.  One of the things that is not present in the SDK of PDFLibrary is the API of Acrobat forms you mention.

  • Adobe Acrobat SDK Samples XI problem

    I have problems of generation and execution of the SDK examples.

    When built 'out of the box', the WebLinkDemo fails when obtaining the HFT for AcroColor.

    After some googling, I found Adobe Acrobat XI SDK Release Notes:

    http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/Dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/Release--acrobatxisdk notes. PDF

    Following their directions:

    deleted

    / D: PI_ACROCOLOR_VERSION = 0 X 00060000

    inserted

    /D READER_PLUGIN

    WebLinkDemo builds OK, but required SnippetRunner compilation with several errors as failure:

    (> c:\code\adobe\acrobat xi sdk\samples\snippetrunner\sources\snippets\shared\acetranspdetextcolorsnip.cpp(60): error C2065: 'PDEContentGetNumElemsSELPROTO': undeclared identifier

    SELPROTO seems to be the commot suffix.

    Any suggestions?
    Thank you!

    Why you read a PDF of the SDK Acrobat 8 ancient file rather than the current SDK?

    No, it is not enough to drive. You need Acrobat. Adobe wants to sell copies of Acrobat, they have the upper hand here.

    'Re missing you something. That you need Acrobat. Please play on player which allows in the SDK.

    Gasoline is

    -create the plug-in with Acrobat

    -ask Adobe Reader plug-ins license

    -If granted, fees

    -get a special key to Adobe

    -prepare the player plug-in

  • Compare 2 PDF of the file through the command line using the Acrobat SDK

    Hello

    I want to compare 2 by command line of the PDF using the Acrobat SDK, is it possible?

    My needis to create Automation for comparison in .net, c# technology to compare files of 100.

    Could you be it someone at - it one please let me if the Acrobat SDK kit supports integration with .NET and is it possible to call the term comapere.

    OK, Acrobat is not suitable. It is not technically suitable for the server; also no license. It doesn't have a command line, only OLE user interface.

    There are Acrobat PDF library, allowing development in C/C++. But I think that there is no function to compare. You will need to implement one yourself, which is a probably a lot of work. What kind of comparison do you want? If you just want to know if the files have changed at all you can use all the checksums without any API. Or are you looking for any Visual change? Or text change...?

  • System requirements for Acrobat SDK

    Hey! I just downloaded the Acrobat SDK kit and tried to run the examples in c#.

    The code stops at AcroExchApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App") with the error: "cannot create ActiveX component."

    It is caused by interoperability. Acrobat.dll and that means he couldn't find acrobat.dll.

    I wanted to know what are the prerequisites for the SDK? I have found no documentation saying this with the SDK.

    Kind regards
