Convert PDFs to Images, Add Annotations, Save as PDF, and More
Easy PDF Viewing, Sharing and Annotation
Using just a couple of lines of code in C# or VB.NET, the Dynamsoft PDF library allows you to convert vector PDF documents to raster images (JPEG, PNG, TIFF, PDF) for easier viewing or sharing. Furthermore, the PDF library enables you to add PDF annotation functionality to your WinForms applications with C# or VB.NET. This allows for markup and objects to be superimposed directly onto a PDF document, without changing the underlying master PDF.
PDF Creation
Dynamsoft PDF library provides a set of comprehensive APIs to allow saving images as multi-page PDF files while also configuring various metadata properties for the file.
PDF Rasterizer
Dynamsoft PDF library allows converting PDF documents into images quickly and conveniently by supporting multiple popular image formats and font types.
PDF Annotation
Dynamsoft PDF library is also capable of adding annotation to your PDF documents. There are many powerful features to provide a friendly user experience.

PDF Annotation (WinForms applications)

- Add any number of annotation objects to an image. These objects can be independently moved and resized.
- Multiple annotations can be selected as a group so that they are moved as one object.
- Annotations can be printed with the base image
- Text annotations can be rotated with the image in 90-degree increments
- A smooth dynamic display. Objects are shown with an outline when resizing, so the resulting size is clear.
- Responds to numerous mouse clicks events, allowing custom scripts or automation to be implemented
- Annotations can use custom controls by making use of the Annotation Data class
- All icons for all annotation types are fully customizable at any size
