Red Software is excited to announce version 3.15 of RAD PDF, the ASP.NET (and ASP.NET Core) component for PDF viewing, editing, form filling, signing and more! With this update, client side rendering now better matches server rendering when using unsupported features, and server side rendering has also been improved, particularly when rendering "striped" images.

Additionally, data URLs can now be used to set images or append files, allowing for easier integration with custom image source integrations.

Lite Documents can now also be appended to another Lite Document instance, allowing for more flexible document merging.

This update is available free of charge to customers with an active Maintenance Plan.

Release Notes

Today, Red Software releases an update to RAD PDF, the ASP.NET / ASP.NET Core GUI for PDF files and forms. Version 3.13.5 includes updates for the latest iOS changes.

We improved the user interface when using Safari on iOS while browsing with "Request Desktop Website" turned "On", the current default on iPad. RAD PDF now also supports Bluetooth mice / pointing devices on iOS, a new feature in iOS 13.4. Some mobile pinch and zoom improvements have been made, allowing for a better experience in mobile browsers.

This version also fixes a bug cropping text in a non-wrapping PdfTextShape, in some cases while using Safari on iOS.

This release is available free of charge to all RAD PDF licensees with an active Maintenance Plan.

Release Notes

Red Software is proud to announce version 3.13 of RAD PDF, the ASP.NET (and ASP.NET Core) PDF reader, editor, form filler, and more. Implementations of our PDF web control can now export and import objects added by the user, allowing integrations more flexibility when using RAD PDF. Additionally, this update includes rendering improvements both to the client and server side code base along with improving the display of embedded JPEG 2000 images.

This version also includes a new advanced option to display a "Next Field" button which can be enabled (or enabled just for iOS) allowing for smoother tabbing between fields. If interested, please contact Red Software for more information about this feature.

This release is available free of charge to all RAD PDF licensees with an active Maintenance Plan.

Release Notes

Red Software is excited to announce RAD PDF 3.12, its newest ASP.NET (and ASP.NET Core) PDF web control / GUI (graphical user interface). The PDF reader, editor, form filler, and signature tools can now use client rendering (RenderAtClient) to print and search documents, allowing for all RAD PDF resources to be rendered client-side in modern browsers (and potentially without needing the RAD PDF System Service).

Radio button improvements and bug fixes are also implemented in this latest version. Some radio fields were incorrectly identified as checkbox fields and the NoToggleToOff flag is no longer assumed to always be set for radio fields.

This update also features a number of bug fixes including touch screen improvements and a work around for printing in Edge.

Additionally, Production Licenses have been renamed Server Licenses. Functionally, the licenses are the same, but we believe better communicates RAD PDF's licensing policies. If you have any questions, please contact Red Software.

This release is available free of charge to all RAD PDF licensees with an active Maintenance Plan.
