(remove space at beginning of the link)

With Miraplacid Publisher SDK you can create your own software application to convert documents to images or embed this functionality into your software solution.

The main part of SDK is interactive Wizard. It generates dll with software installer. When you add this dll to your application and call installation function, it installs a virtual printer driver on your PC. When you print to this “printer”, it converts pages to images and saves them to disk, prints to a real printer or uploads to a server.

Miraplacid Publisher SDK supports following output formats: PDF, JPEG, TIFF, BMP, PNG, TGA, GIF and Web Presentation. It will scale and crop images for you, adjust colors and gamma and do some other image processing.

Anyone can open your document across a broad range of hardware and software, and it will look exactly as you intended – with layout, fonts, and images intact. No one can modify or copy and paste your texts.

Nice conversion even for multiple pages.

Thanks GAOTD for this nice software. I actually had a need for it.

Secondly, it is OK to complain about a program when it fails to deliver. GAOTD offerings are supposed to be FULLY functional. If they are not, COMPLAIN loudly. Winamp, for instance, makes big claims but your task manager shows you all the information that the Winamp offering here does. To get a FULLY functional copy of Winamp that tells you what the “dfksdfhjh.dld” file actually controls, you are required to pay a one time fee for the file that makes Winamp FULLY functional. That means that the Winamp program is, by definition, NOT fully functional and should NOT be a candidate for GAOTD.

GAOTD is a wonderful place and offers some really goood stuff MOST of the time. For that I am thankful. But when a program fails to deliver as promised, free or not, GAOTD and its users dhould be made aware.

Users should post their operating system when making obdervations about non-functionalityNewer programs will not work on older systems sometimes. Sometimes they do. Both kinds of info is useful. This program works on newer systems and is OK for what it is. Irecommend it to those who don’t have access to other options.
