PDF for Serious Developers
The FLY SDK is a robust PDF library SDK for software developers who want to add support for importing, saving, viewing, converting, creating, merging, marking or exporting PDF. Additional libraries include PostScript, EPS, WMF and EMF. Fly SDK works equally well for application development and for process automation. The engine outputs both vector and bitmap graphics file formats swiftly and surely. Use it to easily enhance your desktop, server or Web application with just two command line or API/DLL calls. It couldn’t be easier – or more powerful!

$1,995How FLY SDK works…
FLY SDK is very powerful conversion engine with many possibilities. It’s simple to integrate yet very flexible and customizable. Only two API calls are needed to convert to any of the vector or bitmap output formats, Below is an example:
PostScript to WMF: Convert 4dbar.ps to 4dbar.wmf using ps2xxx.ini configuration file
VgPsLoadOptions(PS2XXX, “ps2xxx.ini”);
VgPsConvert(“4dbar.ps”, “4dbar.wmf”, PWMF, NULL);
PDF to PNG: Convert 4dbar.pdf to 4dbar.png using the pdf2xxx.ini configuration file
VgPsLoadOptions(PDF2XXX, “pdf2xxx.ini”);
VgPsBitmapConvert(“4dbar.pdf”, “4dbar.png”, PNG, NULL);
EMF to SVG: convert 4dbar.emf to 4dbar.svg using the emfxxx.ini configuration file
VgPsLoadOptions(EMF2XXX, “emf2xxx.ini”);
VgEmfFileFlowTo(“4Dbar.emf”, SVG, “4Dbar.svg”);
The first API call refers to the configuration file (ps2xxx.ini, for example) which can be edited simply with a text editor such as Notepad. It contains instructions on how to perform the conversion and which attributes to apply. An extract of some lines from the CAD SDK look like this:
