Simple SDK Integration Config & Two API Calls

Included in the SDK are header and lib files for the conversion libraries, font directory, batch programs, documentation, sample source code projects for Visual C++ , C# and Basic (Other interfaces available upon request).

Select your Configuration Settings

Use VgPsLoadOptions() to load your configuration file. An example is:

VgPsLoadOptions (PDF2XXX, %INSTALLDIR%pdf2xxx.ini);

Call the API

VgPsConvert is the main function to convert a PDF, PostScript or EPS file into one of the vector output formats. For example, to convert foo.pdf into an SVG file, you would use:

VgPsConvert("foo.pdf", "foo.svg", SVG, NULL)
