Tuesday, March 5, 2024 at 9:00AM Red Software is excited to announce RAD PDF 3.43, the newest release of its ASP.NET GUI / WebControl for PDF viewing, PDF form filling, PDF editing, PDF redaction, PDF signing, securing PDF content, and more. CspSaferRendering now also disables direct execution of PDF JavaScript, making it easier than ever for your RAD PDF implementation to comply with you Content Security Policy. Even with PDF JavaScript disabled (e.g. CspSaferRendering or DisablePdfJavaScript is true), RAD PDF can still parse the most common calculation and formatting scripts, safely computing them without direct JavaScript execution!
Free Text Annotations can now be added by the GUI, Client API and Server API. These annotations are often used for user editable "Typewriter" style text, etc.
This update also includes RAD PDF System Service improvements. The default memory footprint of the service has been reduced. It now also supports multiple reads of the same object from disk concurrently.
This new version includes a number of important bug fixes, including errors related to annotation opacity and redaction.
This update is available free of charge to all customers with an active Maintenance Plan.

The text insertion tool has also been improved, making use of the tool on the same line more intuitive.
This release also includes 64-bit operation improvements and several bug fixes.

Now an even more complete PDF viewer than ever, PDFescape makes navigating and using PDF files without an installed PDF reader even easier.
Files opened in PDFescape will now display bookmarks on the left hand side in the Bookmarks tab, providing an outline of the PDF file.
Hyperlinks embedded in the document can be clicked and viewed as well. Like other security conscious PDF viewers, PDFescape will warn you when clicking a link to prevent you from visiting a site which you did not intend to click on.
For users who need more room to edit their PDF documents, clicking the highlighted tab (be it the thumbnails or bookmarks) will allow minimizing of the left side toolbars.
This update is the first in a series to further grow the features and functionality of PDFescape as they are prepared for integration into our new ASP.NET PDF viewer and editor, RAD PDF
