FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / September 17, 2009
WEBAPPZ releases PDFkit 5.4.3.
After several years since the first release of WEBAPPZ's PDFkit, WEBAPPZ is making the product available at no charge. WEBAPPZ has decided to modernize its revenue model regarding its PDF generation product. Instead of charging up-front fees for its PDFkit product, the product will be available for free, and WEBAPPZ will only charge for optional support and training related to the product.
PDFkit is an easy to use, powerful software tool that generates web browser embedded PDF files, including table-based PDF reports. The ability to add images to any of the pages and to add multiple tables consecutively are just some of the features. The tables use a cell-based architecture enabling many color, font, and image combinations to meet different user requirements. WEBAPPZ uses it internally to generate schedules, calendars, timesheets, invoices, accounting system reports, and student report cards. Really it can be used for any time of PDF documents, as it allows a developer to write many layers on top of it.
For version 5.4.3, we have moved away from the standard Mac OS X installer, and instead, provide the framework in a generic compressed format, so that it can be installed on any operating system. Version 5.4.3 offers several stability, compatibility, and performance enhancements over the previous version 5.4.0.
