PDF-XChange Drivers API SDK provides Developers with a comprehensive set of Virtual Drivers to generate Adobe® compatible PDF files from their software applications using our best selling PDF-XChange print drivers for Windows XP & Later (32/64 bit). When using these drivers you can be sure that the files you generate offer the most highly compressed/optimized PDF files available from any general PDF virtual driver - smaller size files generated quickly and efficiently.

Virtually all the functionality of our 'End User' versions of PDF-XChange are controllable by the developer - for more information on what you can do please download the SDK evaluation.

We also provide a complete 'slimmed' down Client installers (both 32 & 64 bit Drivers included) for you to provide to your clients - or wrap within your own desired installation process (silent installation supported) - you must use this installer as it contains a mechanism to ensure that unlicensed use is not possible in 'open' mode without generating evaluation PDF's, it also ensures safe and correct installation (silently if required) for Windows XP and later, TS and Citrix Metaframe supported.

* Note: Though many users have virtualized some of our component products such as the PDF-XChange Viewer and PDF-Tools application using XenApp, we do not support this at this time. Particularly the printer drivers are not designed to work in a virtualized environment.

** Limitations to product support for Windows XP

To experience the best performance of our products on all Windows operating systems, the onus is on users to ensure that they have all the latest available Microsoft Windows Service Packs & Updates installed.

Demo Limits

Evaluation versions of our SDK software are fully functional, allowing the testing and full utilization of all SDK features, Developers need to be aware that any test documents will have a demo watermark placed on every page of any PDF created or modified with the evaluation versions.

We recommend which ever option you decide is best suited for your needs - that you use the evaluation SDK's to the maximum prior to purchase to ensure satisfaction and only purchase when ready to recompile you completed application ready for distribution to your clients - with your license strings, to remove the demo watermarks restrictions.

As we do not offer refunds after issuing licensing info.

    I have tested about 10 other printer drivers and this one is clearly the best. It has all the features I needed and the API is very convenient and well documented. What's more, for the past 2 years I have been using this product, the company has provided excellent and fast support.
