EgoPDF.Generator

C# port of FPDF with bug fixes and modern additions (SkiaSharp-driven font metrics, embedded TrueType fonts with valid PDF descriptors, page-size and image helpers).

If you also need to render Zebra ZPL labels to PDF, add the companion preview package EgoPDF.Barcodes.

Quick start

using Ego.PDF;
using Ego.PDF.Data;

using var pdf = new FPdf("hello.pdf");
pdf.AddPage(PageSizeEnum.A4);
pdf.SetFont("Helvetica", "B", 24);
pdf.Cell(0, 10, "Hello from EgoPDF!");
pdf.Close();

That writes a one-page A4 PDF with the text in Helvetica-Bold. The PDF core fonts (Helvetica, Courier, Times) are never embedded; load a TTF with pdf.LoadFont("RobotoSlab", "path/to/RobotoSlab-Regular.ttf"); and pdf.AddFont("RobotoSlab", ""); to embed a custom face.

What's in the box

  • The full FPDF API (text, lines, rectangles, cells, multi-cell, images, links, font scale, page sizes / orientations).
  • SkiaSharp-based metrics for embedded TrueType fonts — no .php tool generation step needed, just hand LoadFont a .ttf path.
  • Embedded fonts emit valid PDF descriptors (PostScript-safe BaseFont names, real FontBBox, non-zero StemV, italic / bold / monospace flags) so Acrobat in strict mode accepts them.
  • Image embedding for PNG / JPEG / GIF, with on-the-fly format detection via Skia codecs.

Targets

  • net8.0
  • net9.0

2.2.1: three bug fixes, no API changes. (1) FPdf("file.pdf") now sets AutoFlush=true on the file-backed buffer; previously the trailing xref / trailer / %%EOF stayed in the StreamWriter's internal buffer and a caller reading Buffer.BaseStream after Close() got a truncated PDF ending at the last endobj. (2) FontScale.Default / DoubleHeight / DoubleWidth become read-only properties that synthesise a fresh instance per access; previously they were mutable static fields and ZPL field-scaling writes (FieldDefinition.ScaleX) leaked into every FPdf constructed afterwards in the same process. (3) Sample3 footer uses 8 pt (matches FPDF tutorial 3) instead of the 15 pt typo. 2.2.0 added layout primitives (Row / Stack / Panel + Rect + PanelStyle) and scope helpers (PushState / PushPos); see release notes for that version.
