Thank you, this Information wasn't noted anywhere. But actually PowerPDF is the wrong tool for opening and reading PDF files, it is only made for creation of documents. I dared to add this info to the english wiki page. -- Marc Santhoff -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

(I think the former) I use powerPdf for years I have compared both versions and they are too diferent. not so many, but i know this, thus I send whole, and someone can choose what part can be prepare have you tried our version?, yes, but not whole, pdfimage is base direct from ccr version what are the main advantages of your version over ours?
