F.A.Q. |
PDF In-The-Box and ALL In-The-Box run on these Microsoft Windows platforms (in Win32 mode): Windows 95, 98, 2000, 2003, NT 4, XP, Vista, Windows 7.
PDF In-The-Box and ALL In-The-Box can be used with any development tool running on Microsoft Windows (in Win32 mode). Depending on your development tool, you've to select the right API.
Both PDF In-The-Box and ALL In-The-Box offer three programming interfaces called ActiveX, Delphi and DLL. They are functionally equivalent.
If you're programming in Delphi, preferably use the Delphi API. It's a VCL-based programming interface, supporting Delphi 5, 6, 7, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2010 (in Win32 mode).
If not, you've the choice between the ActiveX and the DLL APIs. All development tools can call DLLs, and most of them can integrate ActiveX controls. The ActiveX API is easier and more pleasant to use, that's why it's selected by most of our customers.
No! You need a licence for each developer computer only, i.e. each computer used to design applications or websites using PDF In-The-Box or ALL In-The-Box . Deploying or distributing your applications to end-user computers is royalty-free!
No! PDF In-The-Box and ALL In-The-Box are not virtual printer drivers. They're development tools.
No. PDF In-The-Box can create new PDF files only. It can't load and transform existing files.
ALL In-The-Box cannot load existing PDF fiels either, but it can save its own generated documents to files (encoded in a proprietary format) then reload these files for various purposes.
No. PDF In-The-Box and ALL In-The-Box write native PDF format. They don't need Adobe Reader® or any third-party software to generate PDF files.
Well, the answer is not so simple. PDF In-The-Box and ALL In-The-Box do offer methods called ShowDoc and PrintDoc, capable of displaying and printing a PDF file (either generated by our tool or not). However, it must be clear that these methods just calls Adobe Reader® (supposed to be installed on the computer in that case), passing to it the concerned file name. The file will be displayed or printed by Adobe Reader®. This process will open a separate window without any programmatic control, to be subsequently closed by the user.
It's very simple:
Major updates are defined by the first digit of the version number.
Of course you can! When clicking the Order link in the
online store, you get a form requesting you to
select a currency. All currencies can be selected: the price will be immediately
displayed in your currency.
You can also quickly convert a specific amount to your currency by clicking one
of the

The trial version is fully functional. It just displays a warning window on each run and writes a demo watermark across pages.
PDF In-The-Box has no user interface, it has a programming interface only.
During the development process, ALL In-The-Box has no user interface either. However, at run-time, it does offer a document viewer to be integrated in your applications.
No, this is not the part of PDF In-The-Box. or ALL In-The-Box. They can create PDF forms but not load existing ones.
Yes! PDF In-The-Box ActiveX can be installed on any Windows-based web server and generate PDF files in response to remote client requests. The PDF output will have to be encoded in VBScript, inside an ASP page.
You can try the Live Demo available on this website. An example is also supplied with the product.
PDF In-The-Box and ALL In-The-Box and just require that you master a programming language! Whichever you want. No specific knowledge is needed concerning the PDF format.
The programming interface has been designed in order to be as easy and pleasant to use as possible. In addition, both tools are delivered with a Tutorial project project, showing the main features in a didactic way.
PDF In-The-Box and ALL In-The-Box include a comprehensive Programmer's Manual in the form of a CHM file. All programming symbols (methods, properties, events and various symbols) are fully documented in English with a lot of examples and hyperlinks.
