Software development companies looking for an inexpensive and easy way to create PDF files or process graphic data files
About CAD6engine
Use CAD6engine as your programming library (SDK) to output technical and financial data, raster images, process and text information, SVG graphics, or the content of DWG and DXF files to high-quality PDF files (of course without using the limited Windows printer interface or GDI).
Create high-resolution PDFs with Unicode texts, layers, transparencies, and support for various colors models (RGB/HSB, CMYK, gray, CIELab). Convert SVG to DXF/DWG files and vice versa. Combine various graphical files into one document, add objects and text, and print it. With full control over all parameters. Integrated into your program, running completely in the background, or optionally presenting a full-fledged graphical user interface.
CAD6engine is addressed to C++ developers with basic knowledge of C++ and Win32/x64 topics. CAD6engine may also be used with other compilers that support the supplied C++ compatible dynamic link library MKCAD6engine.dll and the corresponding MKCAD6engine.lib.
