PDF Import Support in ODA Drawings SDK

Drawings SDK supports importing a PDF file to a .dwg database using the PdfImport extension module (TD_PdfImport.tx). The module is available for the following platforms and compilers:

• Microsoft® Windows® (Microsoft Visual Studio® version 2015 or higher)
• Linux (GCC version 4.8 or higher)
• Apple® macOS® (Clang using macOS 10.9, 10.10, 10.11, 10.12, 10.13 SDKs)
• iOS (iOS 12.0 SDK)
• Google Android™ (with Android Google NDK r15c)

All source is available in the release packages (in the Drawing/Imports/PdfImport folder). For the API Reference, please refer to OdPdfImport Classes.

Drawings SDK uses the Google PDFium library for importing from a PDF file. This library is provided within the ODA Drawings archives and is located in the ThirdParty/pdfium folder. Note that the Google PDFium library requires compilers that support the C++11 standard.
