Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) Export

Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file format originally created by Adobe to provide a standard form for storing and editing printed publishable documents.

As PDF documents can be easily viewed and printed by end users on a variety of computers and platforms, they are very commonly deployed on the web and are often the preferred format when end users exchange documents via email. PDF files maintain the original document's appearance, keeping the formatting, graphics, and colors intact.

TX Text Control .NET for WPF allows documents to be saved directly to Adobe PDF without the need for third-party software or cumbersome printer drivers.

Using the traditional approach to PDF creation, it is necessary to print a document to a file and then use a PS to PDF converter (such as Adobe Distiller) to convert the print file to a PDF file. While technologically possible, it is an impractical solution that creates additional strain for the end user.

TX Text Control .NET for WPF greatly simplifies PDF creation by offering the end user a menu entry Export as PDF.

Furthermore, TX Text Control .NET for WPF supports digital signatures in Adobe PDF documents. Signatures can be created with PFX, DER Cer, or Base64 CER certificate files.
