Soft Xpansion has released version 10 of its PDF Xpansion SDK, which is a set of developer libraries that implement PDF functionality into applications.
- (1888PressRelease) July 10, 2013 - Bochum, Germany -- Soft Xpansion has released a new version of its PDF Xpansion SDK, which is a set of developer libraries that implement PDF functionality into applications. Version 10 enables software developers to integrate the use of PDF files on desktop PCs with Microsoft Windows and on mobile devices with ARM architecture and Windows RT. Moreover, the overall performance of the SDK has been improved and pricing has been made more flexible. The new version can be used as an alternative to PDF Xpansion SDK 8, which is still available.
The basic functionality of SDK 10 can be seen in the freeware program PDF Xpansion Reader for Windows RT. This PDF viewer for tablet PCs with ARM architecture is available for download in MicrosoftŽs Windows Store.
The PDF Xpansion SDK 10 is made up of one single library (API) for three development platforms. It offers similar structure and functionality: C++ for PC desktop programs and server solutions plus Windows RT for Windows Store applications. Besides, .NET development is possible and a PDF viewer as Win Forms and WPF controls are available. With the SDK functionality implemented, end users do not need any extra programs to create, edit and view PDF files.
PRICING
The price for the components of the PDF Xpansion SDK 10 is based on a lump sum license fee that grants a permanent license, which is neither dependent on the amount of copies of the application, nor on the number of developers.
Optionally, customers may sign a maintenance contract with a 1-year term. The contract entitles them to download version updates free and to get extensive product support.
NEW APPROACHES IN VERSION 10
New SDK generation: enables software developers to integrate PDF functionality on mobile devices with ARM architecture and Windows RT
Portability on other platforms made faster and easier
Performance improved significantly
Pricing more flexible and transparent than with version 8: the SDK library may be licensed with the desired functionality, so that functionality that is not needed has not to be paid
