We need our very own plugin

Post by Nicolas »

Hello,
We want to add a feature to PDF-Xchange. This is very specific so it has to be built from scratch. This plugin would have to :
- connect to db,
- get some info from db,
- append some data from pdf document
- send all of it back to the server
I assume this is what the SDK is for, BUT we don't have any C# developper in house...
So, what are our options ?
- should we buy a SDK licence and contact a freelance to do the job ?
- does Tracker SW provide this kind of service ?
Any idea ?

Hello Nicolas,

While I am not 100% certain, a custom plugin may not be outside the realm of possibility.
I have prompted an internal discussion about this for you and will return with more info when I can.

The largest issue we could see currently is that we are not familiar with your DB infrastructure, which could possibly pose difficulties down the road.
Could you provide a little more information about the DB for us?
Beyond that, to develop as a plugin, it should be done in C++, instead of C#.
