Hi Edwin Specifically I am referring to creating a page containing layer objects and saving as PDF: https://www.imageen.com/help/TImageEnIO.SaveToPDF.html Here is a demo showing layer, control and image to PDF (native code, not PDFium): https://www.imageen.com/files/demos/run/InputOutput/PDFBuilder2/PdfBuilder2.exe Also see: https://www.imageen.com/help/File_Formats.html#PDF Best regards Nigel Cross Xequte Software www.imageen.com

Hi That is correct. PDFium should not be used in multiple threads. If you are looking to generate PDF files only (i.e. not edit existing PDF files) then ImageEn's native PDF support (creating and saving) can be used in threads. Editing of annotations via PDFium is on the to-do list. Best regards Nigel Cross Xequte Software www.imageen.com

Hi Edwin 1. We use DLL files to make it easier to plug-in the functionality (i.e. users who don't require PDF support are not burdened with a larger EXE) 2. ImageEn supports PDF files in multiple ways: - Native exporting of layers (images, texts, vector shapes, etc) to PDF - PDFium functionality (rendering and editing PDF pages, but not editing of annotations at this time) - Other methods, such as converting image documents to searchable PDF files (OCR) So the answer, unfortunately, is that there is currently not a practical way to open a PDF file, edits its annotations and save it. BTW, we are hoping to have PDF bookmark support in the next release. Best regards Nigel Cross Xequte Software www.imageen.com

Hi Edwin 1. Yes, it is. 2. Due to the way PDF is supported, PDF files can be created with images, text and other annotations, but ImageEn cannot edit the annotations of a loaded PDF 3. No, but it should be added soon. Best regards Nigel Cross Xequte Software www.imageen.com
