PDFTron Extends PDFNet PDF Library with Support for Python, PHP and Ruby

Vancouver, Canada, May 31, 2011

PDFTron Systems Incorporated, a global provider of industry-leading, high-performance electronic document technology, today announced the immediate availability of PDFNet™ SDK 5.7, an update to PDFTron's flagship PDF development component for advanced, high-quality PDF creation, content extraction, editing, viewing, printing and document conversion.

With version 5.7 of PDFNet SDK, PDFTron expands its leading-edge PDF development platform offering by adding full support for Python, PHP and Ruby.

The new version gives web developers access to the same API and same broad range of robust PDF processing functionality already available in the .NET, JAVA, and C/C++ editions of the PDF toolkit. The new language bindings are supported on Windows, Linux, and Mac OSX.

Because of efficiency, quality, and reliability considerations PDFNet SDK is the PDF library of choice in many server based applications. With direct support for most popular web development platforms, including .NET, JAVA and now PYTHON, PHP, and RUBY - PDFNet is even more attractive to modern cloud based applications that need to work and evolve with different technologies and requirements.

Using the new version of PDFNet SDK, developers will also benefit from other enhancements boosting the toolkit's already powerful performance and complete PDF support. A detailed list of the new features available in version 5.7 of PDFNet SDK can be found on PDFTron's website at: http://www.pdftron.com/pdfnet/whatsnew.html. Product information, sample code, and fully-featured free demo versions are available for immediate download at: http://www.pdftron.com/pdfnet/index.html.
