Red Software is proud to announce RAD PDF 5.0, the newest release of its ASP.NET WebControl, a drop-in component for PDF reading, PDF form filling, PDF editing, PDF redaction, PDF signing, PDF content protection, and more. Compatible with the .NET Framework 3.5+ and ready for ASP.NET 10, RAD PDF continues to have wider platform and browser support than any other web-based PDF editor.

New Comments Side PanelThis update includes a new comments side panel, allowing for all markup annotations on a page to easily be viewed and navigated. Additionally, the document information dialog now displays Creator and Producer information. The object properties dialog now allows annotation opacity to be set. Popup annotation sizing is now better handled when loading annotated PDF files.

New bookmarks can now set their page and view settings directly. Touch devices can now move and delete pre-existing bookmarks, just like previous versions allowed on a desktop device.

This release fixes a number of bugs, including an iOS selection bug.

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