GdPicture.NET 8 Preview

[Elodie]

Hi Everyone!

We're about to start the BETA Program for the release of GdPicture.NET 8. The program will be launched in 3 to 10 days.

GdPicture.NET 8 will be available for sales by end-June. But before that, you can try the BETA version to see all the new features we added:

- Thread safe OCR module with lots of new languages support. (now 100% of the GdPicture.NET SDK is thread safe).
- Full annotation support for PDF and images including sticky notes, free hand, rubber stamps, shapes and more…
- Full managed PDF support (32 bit and 64 bit): Edit existing PDF, split & merge documents, swap pages, Edit pages, apply digital signature, uncrypt, add watermarks and barcodes etc…
- Improvement of the Autodeskew.
- Improvement of the Forms processing Plugin accuracy.
- AnyCPU SDK. The same dll will automatically work in 64-bit mode on 64 bit OS and in 32-bit mode on 32-bit OS. All our code is now compatible with this technology.
- And More!

The PDF improvements are pretty exciting stuff.

Along with the pre-defined annotations your screenshot shows - will we be able to define custom annotations such as line measurements?

Hi,

You should receive a confirmation email very soon.

We are now polishing the Beta release, it will be released next week.

@ERI: Custom annotation is not available and don't match our approach. However, we should introduce such feature in a medium release of GdPicture 8 with, as always, extra features based on customers feedback.

Cheers !
