FEATURES

JAVA 2D

jPDF Creator is based on Java2D - a Java standard used by many other components (such as Swing/JFC). Because it uses Java2D, you don't have to learn a new application programming interface. Chances are, you already know it! In fact, with jPDF Creator, you can draw PDF content just as you would draw in a UI window.

XFA SUPPORT (beta)

jPDF Creator now integrates an XDF rendering engine that complies with XFA standards. You can now generate PDF content without writing a line of code - a simple xml text file is enough to build reports and documents.

Even better - if you use an XFA compliant editor (such as Adobe Designer), you could visually edit your page and use jPDF to generate the corresponding PDF.

COMPONENT INTEGRATION

Do you need to integrate Barcodes and Graphs?

Component integration can be pushed to the limits using jPDF. You can easily generate "screenshots" from your favorite Java2D components and integrate their visual representations directly onto a PDF page.

TABLE OF CONTENTS, LAYERS, TRANSPARENCY, LINKS

jPDF Creator provides features that go well beyond the scope of standard Java2D: the many enhancements provide customers with methods to create PDF layers, URL links, Named Destinations, the manipulation of transparencies, and the handling of outlines (aka the document table of contents).
