scConverter™ is a DLL that can convert PDF, DWF, DWFx, Gerber, CGM, TIFF, CALS, PLT, PNGand JPEG files to a large number of output formats. The list of available output formats includes Adobe PDF, PDF/A, DXF, DWF, CALS, TIFF, PLT and PNG. You will find a complete list of all available input and output formats below.

You may use scConverter in any development environments that support COM, for example .NET, VB, C++, MFC, C#, Delphi, ASP, ASPX and many others. If your application, or developer environment, doesn't support COM, the DLL does export functions that can be called directly.
If you use only the exported functions you do not have to register the DLL on the target system.

You have full control of the conversion process and can select scaling, resolution, number colors to use and more using the available methods and properties. You can define pen tables to control colors, line widths, line styles and line end style.

With scConverter you may merge multiple PDF files into a single multipage PDF file. You may merge all pages from the different PDF files, or a selection of pages. In addition scConverter includes a function for splitting a multipage PDF file into multiple PDF files with one or more pages each.

With the PDF to CAD functionality you can convert your PDF files to editable DXF, Gerber, CGM and SVG file formats.

The SDK includes several source code samples, including a command line converter, a complete batch converter and a utility for merging several PDF files into a multipage file.
