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.
[Retour en haut]
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 (in
Win32 mode): versions 7, 2007,
2009, 2010, XE, XE2, XE3, XE4, XE5, XE6, XE7, XE8.
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.

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.
