Servoy PDF Pro Plug-In

PDF Pro Plug-In

The PDF Pro plug-in adds many features that are not available in the pdf_output plug-in that ships with Servoy. In order for the PDF Pro plug-in to function, it is required that the pdf_output plugin also be installed (free option in the Servoy Installer). The PDF Pro plug-in depends on the iText and Multivalent Tools java libraries, which are open-source and distributed under separate licenses. Both of those java libraries should already be installed after installing both the PDF Output plug-in, and the PDF Pro plug-in.

Features:

  • Add MetaData to a PDF (like your company name as the author)
  • Compress a PDF- very good compression with small size and good quality
  • Encrypt / Password protect a PDF file
  • Restrict modifications, printing, and much more
  • Create Handout pages of a PDF (like in PowerPoint)
  • Delete pages from a PDF
  • Merge an unlimited number of PDF files into 1 PDF file
  • Add page numbers to a PDF. You can specify location, font, color, etc.
  • Overlay Text- Add "DRAFT" at a 45 degree angle accross every page. You can specify text, location, font, color, etc.
  • Add a watermark to every page of a PDF. You can specify the image, and location.
