Red Software is proud to announce version 2.24 of RAD PDF, the ASP.NET PDF form filler, PDF editor, and PDF reader. This update improves link annotation support and broadens custom font options.

With this new version, all existing link annotations are now accessible via our Client API and Server API. The GUI also has been updated to facilitate removal of the existing links. Additionally, newly added links are now more easily utilized. When highlighting is turned off, these links can now be activated when clicked.

We've also added support for web fonts, so that if you are using a custom PdfFontResource, that font can be made available client side via a web font (e.g. EOT, TTF, WOFF, etc). This means that fonts not universally installed client side (e.g. a barcode font, or a signature font) can now still be used by making it available over the web. No longer do PdfFontResources need to rely on "web-safe" fonts.

This release also includes several minor bug fixes.

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