RAD PDF 4.5 Released
Wednesday, July 16, 2025 at 10:00AM Today, Red Software updates RAD PDF, a ASP.NET web component & GUI for editing, form filling, redacting, signing, and viewing PDF files on almost ANY device. RAD PDF supports everything from the latest versions of Chrome and mobile Safari to even Internet Explorer 6! RAD PDF runs on the .NET Framework (3.5 / 4.x) as well as .NET Core, 5, 6, 7, 8. and 9, using Blazor, Razor, MVC, WebForms, and more. Our nuget can be installed on Windows or Linux machines.
This version includes printing improvements. In previous versions, some browsers caused a white page to be added between pages. This handling has been fixed. We've also improved A4 and letter page size recognition. This makes a significant difference when printing from iOS.
Also, this release implements a user-friendly color picker on object property dialogs, allowing for easier color selection. Additionally, the document information dialog now shows the current page size.
This version includes a number of bug fixes, .NET updates, new replaceable resource strings and security upgrades.
This update is available free of charge to customers with an active Maintenance Plan.
RAD PDF 2.25 Released
Tuesday, September 9, 2014 at 9:00AM 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.

Monday, April 22, 2013 at 10:00AM UPDATE: Red Software is no longer affiliated with PDFescape.
From time to time, we receive complaints about a PDF not printing quite right when using our free PDF editor, PDFescape. Unintuitively, the cause of this is typically the web browser!
Most web browsers will add some information to printed pages such as the page number, page URL, etc. While this is helpful information for a printout of web page, it is rarely desired on a PDF form. Fortunately, most browsers allow their users to turn off the header and footer text.
Additionally, printer output typically specifies some margins. In the past, some users complained about this making printer output look incorrectly scaled or "shrunk". A recent PDFescape improvement now allows most PDFs to be printed with the intended margins by default, without needing to change browser settings. This latest improvement works with the latest versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Google Chrome and is enabled by default for all users.
