DLL Files to Distribute
Distribute the appropriate assembly DLL file with applications using the PDF Xpress Product:
-
Accusoft.PdfXpress5.ActiveX.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 7 and Windows Vista, the CMap and Font folders are located in:
C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\Accusoft\PDFXpress\v5.0\Support
-
For Windows XP and earlier versions of Windows, the CMap and Font folders are located in:
C:\Program Files\Accusoft\PDFXpress\v5.0\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/Windows 7 - C:\Users\Public\Documents\Accusoft\PDFXpress\V5.0\Support\CMap
-
Windows XP and Earlier - C:\Program Files\Accusoft\PDFXpress\V5.0\Support\CMap
2.a. Keep the following files in the CMap folder:
- Identity-H
- Identity-V
2.b. Delete the remaining files in the CMap folder.
3. Locate the Font folder:
- Windows Vista/Windows 7 - C:\Users\Public\Documents\Accusoft\PDFXpress\V5.0\Support\Font
- Windows XP and Earlier - C:\Program Files\Accusoft\PDFXpress\V5.0\Support\Font
4.a. 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)
4.b. 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. |
