I just downloaded the PDF-XCHANGE PRO 6 SDK which I think includes the core SDK and the printer SDK. I want to evaluate these for creating PDF files directly from my Delphi app (Delphi 10.1 Berlin Update 2).
I unzipped the installer and ran it. In the folders that were created I found the APIHelp folder and the PDFX5DRV_APIsm.pdf file.
Question 1: Why does the link to the API documentation say it is for "PDF-XChange Drivers API SDK 2012 Online Manual (English)"? 2012, really?
Question 2: The link is broken! How can I learn the API without documentation?
I looked in C:\Apps\PDF-XChange PRO 6 SDK\Examples\APIExamples\DelphiExamples\PDFdriverAPI\DriverAPI.dpr to see if anything made sense. it references PXCComLib6_TLB and SHDocVw_TLB that I cannot find anywhere on my computer.
Question 3: Where are they?
Question 4: I looked in the readme.txt file and it says PDF XChange 4 must be installed. Is that really true?
Question 5: It says to create a type library using Delphi menu choice Project -> Import Type Library... but there is no such menu item. How do you do this?
How do I get started??? I'm VERY frustrated with this experience!

Re: Disorganized installation
Hello greymont,
I will speak with the guys making the installation packages, and make sure that we update those files.
Indeed if you have downloaded the latest SDK build - it will contain the Core API and the Drivers API - both the current latest version (6.0). The help pages for the Core and Editor SDKs are here:
https://sdkhelp.pdf-xchange.com/view/Main_Page
And this is the one for the drivers:

Stefan
