EvoPdf Next Core PDF API for .NET | PDF Library for .NET | HTML to PDF for .NET | EVO PDF Software | Free Trial | Licensing | Support

Overview

The Core PDF API component of the EvoPdf Next Library for .NET provides a powerful API for programmatically creating, manipulating and securing PDF documents.

You can create PDF documents by adding text, images and other graphical elements and enhance them with advanced features such as encryption, permissions, digital signatures, custom headers, footers, stamps and other document processing options.

The library targets .NET Standard 2.0 and can be used in .NET Core and .NET Framework applications deployed on Windows and Linux platforms, including Azure App Service, Azure Functions and Docker.

This package includes only the Linux x64 runtime. Separate packages are available for Windows or multi-platform runtimes.

Package structure

EvoPdf Next for .NET has a modular architecture, with separate NuGet packages for each major component, preventing unnecessary files from being included in your applications.

This package is a Linux x64 metapackage that references all NuGet packages required to run the Core PDF API component on Linux platforms.

There is also a multi-platform package EvoPdf.Next.Core that references both the Windows and Linux runtimes, which is ideal when developing on one operating system and deploying to multiple runtime environments.

The Core PDF API also includes the classes used for HTML to PDF conversion and for adding HTML headers, footers and stamps.
To use these features, reference the appropriate Core Runtime package for your target platform or use the dedicated HTML to PDF Converter packages.

PdfTextElement pdfText = new PdfTextElement("Hello World !!!", fontHelvetica)
{
    X = 10,
