VSPDF Build 7.0.0.8		
===================================================================================

The VSPDF control allows you to convert documents created with VSPrinter control into Adobe's PDF (Portable Document Format). PDF is a popular format because it is device-independent and because Adobe publishes many tools that allow you to create, manipulate, and view PDF documents. These tools include the free multi-platform document viewer Adobe Acrobat. The portability and high quality of the PDF documents make PDF an excellent choice for Web publishing. For more information on the PDF format and PDF utilities from Adobe and other sources, visit the Adobe Web site. The VSPDF control allows you to convert VSPrinter preview documents or documents that were saved to disk, using the ConvertDocument and ConvertFile methods.
 
The VSPDF control provides an efficient compression algorithm that results in very compact files, ideal for distribution over the Internet. You may disable compression for text or pictures using the Compress property. The control also allows you to create bookmarks, which are displayed by Adobe Acrobat as an outline tree. To create bookmarks, embed bookmark tags in the original VSPrinter document, then set the OutlineTag property to the tag prefix used in the original document. 

The output generated by VSPDF is very faithful to the original document. The only limitation is that all fonts are automatically mapped to the closest PDF base font. PDF base fonts are Courier, Helvetica, Times, and Symbol. These fonts are similar to the Courier New, Arial, Times New Roman, and Symbol TrueType fonts. For most documents, the mapping results in PDF documents that are very similar to the VSPrinter original. 

Before you can use a VSPDF control in your application, you must add the VSPDF.OCX file to your project. If you use the control in most of your VB projects, you may want to add it to VB's Autoload file. 

To distribute applications you create with the VSPDF control, you must install and register it on the user's computer. The Setup Wizard provided with Visual Basic provides tools to help you do that. Please refer to the Visual Basic manual for details.
