PDF-XChange Standard brings advanced PDF creation options.[2] Several PDF-related SDKs are available for developers, including: PDF Tools SDK, PDF-XChange Viewer SDK, PDF-XChange Drivers SDK, and Image SDKs.[3] They enable creation, manipulation, reading, writing, OCR, search, and display of PDF contents in other applications. They support these programming languages: C++, C#, C, the classic Visual Basic, the modern Visual Basic, Delphi, and Clarion.
