INTRODUCING FOXIT PDF SDK 7.6
Foxit’s first release of 2021 comes with lots of new features and upgrades to our web-based JavaScript web viewer, desktop SDK and mobile SDK.
On the Web SDK side of things, we’ve added a collaboration feature meaning you can now connect multiple clients through a server, webservice or network to the same PDF. Add annotations to a shared file and collaborate in real time with your team for even more efficient document workflows. We’ve also added PDF portfolio support for viewing and downloading PDFs, lots of new form field options as well as major performance enhancements for files with large quantities of annotations.
For our desktop SDK, we’ve added some new APIs to set a DPI limit for image compression, added portfolio support as per the Web SDK above, extended our HTML to PDF conversion to include Linux, along with .TXT to PDF support.
When it comes to mobile, we’ve enhanced the performance of documents containing static XFA forms as well as made improvements to annotation counting, zoom rendering and much more!

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
XFA FORMS
XFA Forms are XML-based forms wrapped inside a PDF. Securely capture, present, move, process, output, update and print information associated with static and dynamic XFA forms. Simplify your data sharing, transportation and availability with XFA.
Rights Management
Keep your PDF documents secure by connecting your application and files to Microsoft's Rights Management Services platform natively. Foxit PDF SDK also integrates with your IRM and DRM solution.
OCR
Convert scanned documents to searchable text PDFs with our highly accurate enterprise optical character recognition (OCR) software. Designed for scanning, and archiving, our robust functionality outputs 13 different file formats including PDF & PDF/A.
REDACTION
Programmatically search and sensor sensitive information in a document for legal or security purposes to keep your customer and employee information safe. Achieve full GDPR-compliance.
PDF/A
Leverage our conversion and verification technology to turn regular PDFs into PDF-A compliant documents. If you are already working with PDF-A in your processes, proactively verify third-party PDFs you receive are PDF-A compliant.

HEAR IT FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
I chose Foxit since it worked, was affordable, and uniquely accommodated to my business needs and business model. Foxit provided more sophisticated technology that enabled me to do things the others could not.
Users can easily access any meeting documentation, no matter if they are at the office or on the road. They don’t have to go through the hassle of carrying out loads of documents to meetings. Board members can now be confident that their information is highly secure.
With the attention already being there, for a product still in prototype stage at that time, [Foxit SDK] was our hero to help implement a first fully functional product in a short period of time.
