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.

Release Notes

Today, Red Software announces version 3.7 of the web PDF reader, form filler, and editor for ASP.NET, RAD PDF. This update improves RAD PDF's signature objects, allowing image based signatures to easily be placed and scaled to fill the region without stretching. Adding a document signing tool to your web application with RAD PDF has never been easier or more adaptive!

This update also has improved client side rendering and other minor improvements.

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

Release Notes

Today, Red Software announces RAD PDF 2.39, the ASP.NET PDF editor, form filler, viewer and more. This version includes a new option to render PDF files at the client instead of server side. This reduces server CPU load and allows RAD PDF to be used without the System Service (abet with some limitations).

This release also includes a number of improvements for using RAD PDF with large PDF files, specifically reducing memory usage through the use of temp files.

RAD PDF's System Service now uses its own caching mechanism by default, reducing the load on the SQL Server database being used with RAD PDF. This can be configured when installing RAD PDF (and the installer will not overwrite already saved settings).

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

Release Notes

Red Software is excited to release version 2.25 of the PDF editing and viewing ASP.NET component, RAD PDF! A new printer settings dialog now allows users to print page ranges, improving the user experience as well as server performance (as non-desired pages are no longer rendered). This update also includes rendering improvements across the board, including CMap (Character Map) support.

Version 2.25 also introduces several minor new features, including improved layout metrics for multilined PdfTextFields using fonts not installed on the client.

This release also includes several bug fixes.

This version is available free of charge to all Red Software customers with an active Maintenance Plan.
