C++Builder 
Gnostice PDFtoolkit is a comprehensive and versatile PDF component suite for Delphi™ and C++Builder®. PDFtoolkit VCL components come with hundreds of functions and properties that put immense power in the hands of the developer. PDFtoolkit hides the complexity of the PDF format and allows developers to easily create applications that can edit, enhance, secure, merge, split, view, digitally sign, and print PDF documents and process PDF forms. PDFtoolkit can extract text, export to images, and also add digital signatures. PDFtoolkit does not require PDF software such as Adobe PDF library, Adobe Acrobat Professional, Adobe PDF Reader or GhostScript.
For complete peace of mind and unmatched value for money, do consider our "all-VCL-products-included" XtremeDevSystem VCL Universal Subscription. You get 12 months free major and minor updates and priority e-mail support.
