TextDynamic 1.30
extDynamic is a royalty free word processing and reporting text control which can be embedded into applications to create documents in code, to offer the end user WYSIWYG editing features and to convert document formats, such as Rich Text Format (RTF) to HTML or as pdf creator to convert RTF or HTML to PDF.
The new sister product RTF2PDF (RTF to PDF) provides almost the same API to be used on a server, ASP.NET life demo: http://www.rtf-net.com !
The engine supports a wide range of advanced formatting features, such as tables, nested tables, numbering, style sheets, hyper-links, bookmarks, page references (for TOC), headers and footers, sections, images (with text wrap around) and optionally also footnotes and text boxes.
Also the "BASIS" edition supports true header and footer texts which can be edited in WYSIWYG manner. Such text are formatted texts placed on top or bottom of a range of pages. Movable images can be part of a header text, if they are located outside the header area they serve as watermark.
TextDynamic supports a split screen mode. Here two editors are displayed which edit the same text.
TextDynamic supports linked and embedded images. The images can be resized and moved. If the image is "free floating" not only the frame, but also the anchor will be drawn when the image is selected. Text can wrap on both sides of the image.
The component can be used to create, preview and print labels. Internally the formatting routine distributes the text on multiple label rectangles on a virtual label sheet - a manual page break let it start a new label.
Mailmerge is used to replace texts fields with data. TextDynamic uses special embedded text objects to mark fields which are not deleted by the merging process, a different set of data can be merged in when the data set scrolls.
TextDynamic comes with support for .NET 1.1, .NET 2.0 and with an OCX, for example to be used in VB6 or MS Access(TM) in one package at a very attractive pri
