The Deployment Packaging Wizard (DPW) helps to package all the libraries, resources, and dependencies listed below (except for Microsoft runtime). |
To manually distribute an application that uses ImageGear.Formats.PDF namespace you must include into the distribution package the native ImageGear PDF library - igpdf24nu.dll along with the ImageGear .NET assembly and the following PDF resources:
Adobe PDF libraries:
Adobe PostScript libraries:
The PDF component needs the following Microsoft component to be installed:
This can be installed with one of the following merge modules:
The ImageGear toolkit comes with multiple PDF and PS fonts that can be used for developing an application based on ImageGear. However, only four fonts are pre-licensed for distribution:
These fonts are the property of Adobe® Systems and are fully licensed for distribution with your application.
If you need to distribute the additional fonts, you need to get a license for the redistribution of those fonts. You are however not limited to the fonts supplied with ImageGear; it is possible to add other fonts to be used with ImageGear PDF/PostScript support. To do this, place your fonts to the PDF Resource directory as follows:

Please also note that the fonts that are pre-licensed for distribution (i.e., AdobeSansMM, AdobeSerifMM, "Courier" and "NotDefFont") provide the substitution capabilities for the other fonts, so they are likely to be enough for many cases. |
