I want to manage PDF format document in VB.net project.
I want to render PDF document in the Form,
and extract objects in the PDF.
It means that the color of the text(string), size of the text and font name of the text could be changed by the app, moreover,
size of the shape and pictures(stream) also could be changed.
Is it possible to do that without Acrobat or third-party component?
If it is too difficult to do it without components, then
Is there any free-for-commercial component to manage those feature?
Thanks a lot!
plus,
there are many free PDF viewers on the Internet. are they using their own PDF rendering component or just adopting existing PDF components?
This can be achieve with the help of 3rd party components. I use GD Picture for PDF manipulation, but it's not free by any means and is great. Others include iTextSharp, PDFSharp and ABCPdf; each having their pros and cons...

I need a PDF library For Android that can read the PDF Files and access to edit and change their contents. Some of Library I have already used :
iText Pdf Library(http://itextpdf.com/)
PdfViewer
But there is problem in Library first one is useful if having only text in pdf. It will not take the images and second changes the pdf to images so that cannot editable.
PDF read/writing is a big problem for Android. A quick search on Stackoverflow will reveal many developers looking for solutions. So far, the most popular solution is to use a webview and use the google docs engine to render the PDF
There are also :
MuPDF
Android PDF Viewer Library

Working on building out a Web2Print product I need some kind of editor that will allow a user to manipulate graphics and ultimately generate a PDF. There are plenty of HTML 2 PDF APIs available but I was hoping someone might have experience with something a little more integrated and suited for dealing with graphics/fonts/text?
In PHP the best opensource option is TCPDF http://www.tcpdf.org/
I wanted to answer this and update everyone on the solutions that I found. Through the Magento extension store I was able to find several commercial (although still very reasonably priced) solutions:
http://www.zetaprints.com/ and http://layoutbuddy.com/ look like the most full featured and supported (as well as no up-front licensing.)
Thanks for all of the responses!

i have to annotate some web pages using particular ontology of a particular domain and generate annotated web pages in RDF format.
so there is any open source tool available which will complete my requirement. i am new in jena programming. so please suggest some links or books.
You can annotate your HTML page using RDFa markup (look at the example in the page) and then
use this library to convert the pages into RDF.
If annotating means some semantic disambiguation, you need to do that manually like #loopasam propoesed. For clear mapping (e.g. <title> tag to dc:title) you might want to use XSLT to add the RDFa tags.

I'm taking recommendations for either a library in Python or Ruby or a free web service that will simply take a PDF and a pair of image dimensions and spit out an image for each page (jpg or png). Nothing complicated! But it must have point-for-point accuracy to the original PDF. That is all.
ImageMagick uses Ghostscript for PDF files. So skip ImageMagick and use Ghostscript directly. IMHO.
You can use GIMP. Its a very good interface.
Import the pdf file to GIMP
Save the file as .xcf
Operate on the image - edit if required
Export in whatever format you want: .bmp, .jpeg, .png etc.
Try this :) (ImageMagick).

Is there a PDF library that one can use to automate creating PDFs from URLs? The current approach I use is to "Print" a page and select a PDF plugin like PrimoPDF to generate the PDF document but I was wanting to automate that.
ABCPDF can do it
wkhtmltopdf generates the most accurate PDFs out of web pages that I have ever found. It renders them in WebKit and converts this to PDF, so the PDF will look exactly like the web page, including all styles and other fancy things.
Just use it like this:
wkpdfhtmltopdf http://www.whatever.com/page.html page.pdf
Depends on what platform you are on
Windows - Websupergoo's ABC PDF
http://www.websupergoo.com/
*nix - Prince XML
http://www.princexml.com/overview/
I've also used ABC PDF (from classic ASP) and found it very good.
