NOTE: Datalogics ports the Adobe PDF Library and DLI to the OS/390, OS/400 and certain additional Unix platforms, but also supports the products on the original Adobe-selected Windows, Macintosh and Unix platforms. Except where noted, information in this Datalogics manual applies to all platforms, not just those to which Datalogics has ported the software. Introduction The Adobe PDF Library is a collection of object-oriented routines offering an Application Programming Interface (API) which enables your composition application to produce PostScript (PS) or Portable Document Format (PDF) Page Description Language (PDL) files. PDF files are compact, device-independent files providing efficient electronic distribution of large documents either viewed by Adobe Reader or output to high-speed printers. As with the original Adobe release on Windows, Macintosh and certain Unix platforms, the Datalogics-supplied Adobe PDF Library and DLI allow you to control the manipulation of PDF files. The Library can link to your composition application to manipulate and produce PDF files, and can also add private data to the PDF output. NOTE: The Adobe PDF Library cannot be used to display PDF files on the OS/390 and OS/400 operating systems. From the User’s Viewpoint Adobe PDF Library for HP-UX, OS/390 and OS/400 does not require a Graphical User Interface. Applications built with it do not require Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader in order to generate PDF output. The interface to the Adobe PDF Library is in About This Guide 1.3 terms of calls to library-defined entries (the API). The Adobe PDF Library appears as a collection of objects, and methods which may be applied to them. The objects fall into three categories: 1 Objects that persist, either in memory or in the object store, until a document is completed and freed 2 A collection of objects used to communicate with the Adobe PDF Library which has a short life span and is terminated by a call into the Adobe PDF Library 3 A Library Control Object, which is the PDFLDataRec structure created before initializing the Adobe PDF Library, populated before and during the Adobe PDF Library initialization, and cleared and released during and after the Adobe PDF Library termination What You Should Know This book is not for developers new to application programming interfaces; therefore, it does not describe programming concepts and techniques. The following list describes the level of experience or knowledge required to understand this book: • Familiarity with high-level language Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), programming on the relevant operating system with the corresponding development tools for that platform, and the process of writing applications in general • A general understanding of the structure and contents of PDF files; the PostScript language; font management (the complete set of characters of a particular design) including the style, arrangement, and appearance of typeset matter for print or electronic display; and composition processes in the platform environment Your application should be capable of the following, where appropriate: • Applications which create PDF should be capable of providing the x and y page coordinates for each object to be placed on the page. The default basis of the coordinates are based on the "first quadrant" values, where (0,0) is the lower left 1.4 Developer Overview corner. Applications which consume or modify PDF will be supplied the x and y page coordinates for each component addressed. • Applications generating textual objects must be capable of specifying font and point size information for those objects. i.e. The Adobe PDF Library itself is not a composition engine; its purpose is to produce Adobe PDF-compliant code as directed by the application, according to the typesetting information provided by that application. You should have access to the Adobe PDF Library Applications Programming Interface (API) manual, related Datalogics Interface documentation, and the Adobe PDF Specifications manual for your system. You should find these documents provided within your release, accessible via the referencelibrary.pdf document using the copy of Adobe Reader provided (or any other PDF viewer utility). For Adobe PDF Library v5.x releases, Adobe PDF Specification 1.4 is appropriate.For Adobe PDF Library v6.x releases, Adobe PDF Specification 1.5 is appropriate. NOTE: Some structures permitted in Adobe PDF Specification 1.5 may not be permitted in Adobe PDF Specification 1.4, and some structures defined in Adobe PDF Specification 1.4 are not available in Adobe PDF Specification 1.3. The explanations, assumptions and samples provided in this guide refer to Adobe PDF Library v6.1.0Plus and DLI v3.0 or higher. How This Book is Organized The following list provides an outline of the chapters as well as a brief description of their contents. Click on each Chapter title below to jump to its first page. Chapter 1: "About This Guide" (This chapter) outlines the chapters to follow, explains the document conventions used here, and lists other related documentation which you may find useful for your work. Chapter 2: "Design Overview" introduces the design of the components of the Adobe PDF Library for HP-UX, OS/390, and OS/400, explains the function of the About This Guide 1.5 Adobe PDF Library, and summarizes concepts and the most common objects and methods used. Chapter 3: "Structure Reference" lists the functional specifications for each interface. These object and method names are described in-depth in the Acrobat Core API On-line Reference document. Chapter 4: "Examples" identifies some Adobe PDF Library functionality for HP- UX, OS/390 and OS/400, and provides sample code to illustrate usage. In addition, a discussion on optimizing performance is included. Chapter 5: "Data Conversion" explains the translation process from EBCDIC to ASCII. Document Conventions The terms note, link and bookmark are used in this book the same way they are in the user interface of Adobe PDF Library v6.1.0Plus®, Adobe Acrobat® and Adobe Reader®. These correspond to the text annotation, link annotation and routine entry 1.6 Developer Overview structures (respectively) that appear in a PDF file. See the Portable Document Format Reference Manual for a description of the PDF file format. The following documentation conventions appear throughout the manual to help you differentiate regular text from product and program names, and to distinguish command syntax. • Product and program names are set in italic type. • Multi-line examples are separated from the text and set in Courier monospace • Directory names and filenames are contained within the text and set in Courier monospace. • Commands are contained within the text and set in Courier monospace. • New terms are italicized. • Page numbers in this book do not correspond to page numbers in the PDF file. The numbering scheme (e.g. 4.1 or A.10) indicates the chapter number (4) or appendix letter (A) first, followed by the page number (1 or 10), separated by a period.

    For more information Nicole Bullock Senior Marketing Manager tel. +1.312.853.8200 PRESS RELEASE Datalogics PDF Alchemist, a Developer Toolkit for Converting PDF to HTML, Now Available Chicago, IL, July 15, 2015 – Datalogics, the premier source for Adobe PDF and eBook technologies, announced the release of Datalogics PDF Alchemist, a new SDK for converting PDF documents to HTML. PDF Alchemist recovers critical text flows that were lost during the initial conversion of the source document to PDF. These text flows are essential for repurposing document contents in a number of ways, including: Optimizing the viewing experience on mobile phones and tablets by enabling intelligent text reflow; Enabling improved semantic text search in content repositories and document management systems; Enabling the reconstruction of editable source documents in situations where the original was lost; And more. PDF Alchemist employs advanced heuristics and sophisticated algorithms to scan across columns and pages of a PDF, linking related text and paragraphs together in the final output. Images are extracted as separate files, and are referenced inline in the HTML output; and formatting including text styling, indentation and justification are also preserved. “Recovering the text structure of PDFs is a bit of a 'holy grail' of PDF processing,” notes Greg Manuel, Vice President of Marketing. “Since the PDF format was first and foremost a page description language, encoding semantic text flow information within the document was never a priority. Consequently, today there's a wide variety of tools for creating PDFs, each encoding the internal structure in a different way. PDF Alchemist employs a number of techniques, including using positional and style “hints," to reconstruct the flow of text across columns and pages.
