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.

Is any interesting to integrate this with ccr version?

And by the way. I write library, which can draw on canvas form screen

I use them to prepare reports on different media.

Is any , who need something like that.


Absolutely. But it exists already: all you need to do is draw on a
TFPCustomCanvas class; Your code will then be able to draw on screen,
printer, pdf and whatnot, because the canvas classes in the LCL descend
from TFPCustomCanvas.

of course its good choice, and I say about something similar,
but its not ready do use:

powerPDF is not based on it,
second: what about scaling factor, PDF has different
handling bitmap, font style  are also different
there is also problem with last point on drawing line

where is implementation  of postscript and html

In the mean time, PowerPDF (our version) can convert from UTF-8 to 1252 and 
support for the rest of 1250 not included in 1252 can be added easily.
  

I did not notice that. But my solution has  proper compute textwidth
Main problem are diacritic char


Maybe you based your port on very early PowerPdf version or maybe our version 
was based on a too old powerpdf version? (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? (I understand that a 
powerpdf independent of LCL it's good one).
  


some minor bugs like
   procedure SetTextMatrix(a, b, c, d, x, y: Word); {  Tm  }
should use single
or circling  dependency (pdfFonts use pdfdoc)

Except by HTML canvas (and not as easy as changing just the backend but) it 
seems there is already support for everything else but I'm not sure maybe you 
need features that are currently available in the current implementation?
