Check for Proper Licensing and Unlock Codes

PDF Xpress contains a locking mechanism that prevents you from distributing applications created with evaluation versions of PDF Xpress. Prior to distributing an application that utilizes PDF Xpress, you must purchase and enable runtime licensing. Web Licensing functionality is integrated into the SetOEMLicenseKey method. See Upgrading Runtime Licensing for details. 

DLL Files to Distribute

Distribute the appropriate assembly DLL file with applications using the PDF Xpress Product:

• Accusoft.PdfXpress7.Net.dll

CMap and Font Folders

The CMap and Font folders need to be distributed with your application if you want the PDF files to be rendered using these files. 

• For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 the CMap and Font folders are located in:
  
  C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\Accusoft\PDFXpress\v7.0\Support

• For Windows XP and previous versions of Windows, the CMap and Font folders are located in:
  
  C:\Program Files\Accusoft\PDFXpress\v7.0\Support

Deploy PDF Xpress without Asian Fonts to Save Space

If you don't need to support Asian fonts (Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Korean, and Japanese) you can significantly reduce your deployment file size.

For example:

• With Asian font support - 64MB
• Without Asian font support - 500KB

Procedure

To take advantage of the reduction in file size, follow these steps:

1. Locate the CMap folder:
   • Windows Vista and Later - C:\Users\Public\Documents\Accusoft\PDFXpress\v7.0\Support\CMap
   • Windows XP and Earlier - C:\Program Files\Accusoft\PDFXpress\v7.0\Support\CMap
2. Keep the following files in the CMap folder:
   • Identity-H
   • Identity-V
3. Delete the remaining files in the CMap folder.
4. Locate the Font folder:
   • Windows Vista and Later - C:\Users\Public\Documents\Accusoft\PDFXpress\v7.0\Support\Font
   • Windows XP and Earlier - C:\Program Files\Accusoft\PDFXpress\v7.0\Support\Font 
5. Delete the following files in the Font folder:
   • AdobeSongStd-Light.otf - Chinese (simplified)
   • AdobeMingStd-Light.otf - Chinese (traditional)
   • AdobeMyungjoStd-Medium.otf - Korean
   • KozGoProVI-Medium.otf - Japanese
   • KozMinProVI-Regular.otf - Japanese
   • AdobeHeitiStd-Regular.otf - Chinese (simplified) 
6. Keep the remaining files in the Font folder.

In the future, if you decide to provide Asian font support, you can deploy the Asian font files at that time.
