License question for PDFXCoreAPI

Post by sbensen »

We have a license for PDFXEditCoreAPI.x86, in the documentation of Edit Core API it is mentioned that core API is supported in EditCore.

When used in an application in the generated output PDF we are still seeing the watermark logo to buy it. Can you clarify about this, can we use PDFXCoreAPI with same license key as PDFXEditCoreAPI?

Thank you.

Hi Daniel,

As per our call the license for PDFXEditCore should work for PDFXCore too. If that is the case, why when I apply license in the below code still apply the watermark for buying it.

This is a .net C# code, almost same as in the PDFXCoreAPI SDK documentation included by tracker software API documentation.

public string FlattenFileAnnotations(string inputPath, string outputPath)
{
string strError = string.Empty;
try
{
string strLicKey = ""; // here I was entering the license key I had for the PDFXEditCore API.

m_pxcInst = new PXC_Inst();
m_pxcInst.Init(strLicKey);

CloseDocument();

if (m_ipxcDoc == null)
{
m_ipxcDoc = m_pxcInst.OpenDocumentFromFile(inputPath, null);
bool retValue = m_ipxcDoc.HasDigitalSigns();
}
//Getting current page
IPXC_Pages pages = m_ipxcDoc.Pages;
int pageCount = (int)pages.Count;
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(pages);

FillAnnotationsList();
for (int i = 0; i < pageCount; i++)
FlattenAllFieldsInPage(i);

m_ipxcDoc.WriteToFile(outputPath);
}

catch (Exception ex)
{
strError = ex.ToString();
}

return strError;
}

Hi Daniel,

Just want to add this, in my sample app I added the reference to the PDFXCoreAPI.x86.dll only, I don't want to add a reference to PDFXEditCore.x86.dll.

Thank you.

Hello sbensen,

One of our colleagues from the dev team just tested the "FlattenAnnotations" feature from the CoreAPI demo:
https://github.com/tracker-software/PDF ... oreAPIDemo
Using an EditorSDK license key - and everything worked correct and as expected for him.

So can you please try to do the same and let us know if this works for you!?
If it doesn't then the issue is most likely license related, and we will need to investigate that over e-mails, as these forums are public and posting license key data here should not be done!

Regards,
Stefan

Hi

I sent the license key in my email to Dan McIntyre. This is not working for me even when I used the same license key in the DEMO app you provided for the CoreAPI.

Please let me know how to resolve this.

Thank you.

Hello sbensen,

Thank you for the email. We have looked this over and believe that the issue is related to the version of the SDK you are running. Please follow the steps in my most recent email to roll back to the appropriate version, and you should be able to use your license key there.

Kind regards,
