PCLTool SDK is a collection of tools for converting complex HP PCL text, vector files and raster into bitmap formats (PCL to TIF, in-memory BMP, PNG, PCX, XPS, DIB and DCX).
Additionaly you can convert your files into vector formats (PCL to in-memory GDI, PCL to PDF and PCL to EMF) with matching TrueType fonts for those used to create the HP PCL print file.
· .NET, 64-bit, & 64-bit .NET - New sets of .exe's and .dll's for the .NET, 64-bit and 64-bit .NET platforms.
· PCL to TransPromo - New functions added to facilitate transformation of high volume PCL Bank Statements into text, raster or vector data for migration into any output management system.
· HotDirZ - New print file capture utility to watch multiple folders and launch various applications.
Popular PCLTool SDK options:
· Option I is a dynamic link library (.DLL) for applications that require custom programming and seamless integration. PCLTool comes with a sample application that exercises all the functions of both the PTC32.DLL and PTV32.DLL.
· Option III is for using PCLXForm with a console script program for PCL to PDF (only) conversion with optional text extraction.
· Option IV is for using PCLXForm with a console script program for conversion of PCL to TIF, PCL to PNG and all other formats (except PDF) with optional text extraction.
· Option V is for developers who need a quick and very extensible solution for complex PCL transformation applications. Option V provides the full capabilities of our powerful .TPT script programming language to split, index, transform, stream edit, extract text, merge and sort PCL documents within a print stream.
