VellumPdf.Layout

NuGet CI

The high-level document builder of VellumPdf, a dependency-free PDF library for .NET 10 implemented clean-room from ISO 32000. It pulls in VellumPdf.Kernel, so for most applications this is the only package you need to add.

  • Paragraphs, headings, lists, tables, images, pie charts, header/footer bands, and bookmarks.
  • Automatic pagination and tagged content for accessible, archival output.
  • PDF/A-2b/2u/2a conformance, CI-validated with veraPDF.

Install

dotnet add package VellumPdf.Layout

Usage

using VellumPdf.Fonts;             // Standard14
using VellumPdf.Layout;            // Document
using VellumPdf.Layout.Core;       // TextStyle
using VellumPdf.Layout.Elements;   // Heading, Paragraph

using var doc = new Document();
doc.SetDefaultFont(new TextStyle { Font = Standard14.Helvetica, FontSize = 11 });
doc.Add(new Heading("Hello, world!"));
doc.Add(new Paragraph("Generated with VellumPdf — no native dependencies."));
doc.Save("hello.pdf");

Need precise, low-level drawing instead? Use the VellumPdf.Kernel canvas directly.

Roadmap

Milestone Scope
1.11 — Barcodes completeness (this release) Closes the #155 completeness backlog: QR Kanji mode, QR Structured Append, Compact (Truncated) PDF417, Macro PDF417, and Code 128 FNC4 / extended Latin-1.
2.0 — Breaking changes Strong-named assemblies (#53) and an async I/O surface for Save/Sign/loaders (#54); both change assembly identity or the public contract, so they wait for a major version.
2.1 — PDF reader (structural) VellumPdf.Reader grows classic and cross-reference-stream parsing, object streams, and encryption support, with a fixture corpus proving it against real-world files (Epic #100).
2.2 — PDF content extraction Text and image extraction on top of the reader.
3.0 — Read-modify-write A unified round-trip document model that supersedes the write-once PdfDocument, so existing PDFs can be opened, edited, and saved back (Epic #101).
