Why use Gnostice eDocEngine as your electronic document creation component?
===========================================================================

* Single, rich programming interface enables you to create attractive
  electronic documents using the same set of instructions in over 18 popular
  formats: PDF, Word RTF, HTML, XHTML, Excel, Text, TIFF, SVG, JPG and more.
  This not only simplifies programming but also reduces the learning curve
  and cost of development.

* Generic engines give full control to create any kind of document and add
  custom content to meet any kind of application need.

* Save to file and memory. Highly suitable for use in ASP applications for
  dynamic creation needs.

* Advanced features for PDF output include, compression, encryption,
  TrueType fonts, font embedding, font sub-setting, international characters
  (European, Chinese, Japanese...), bookmarks, notes annotations and more.

* PDF AcroForms support enables you to design richly formatted PDF forms
  with support for buttons, checkboxes, lists, edit controls, JavaScript
  actions and more.

* Vector graphics and Metafile rendering ensures sharp scalable graphics
  in the generated PDF, RTF or other supported formats. Also ensures files
  are extremely compact and easy to distribute.

* Convert RichText to PDF, HTML and other formats making the documents
  more portable. RichText is rendered as rich, formatted text (not image) in
  all document formats ensuring crisp documents that can be text searched
  and enlarged without loss of quality.

* Advanced drawing functions include support for drawing tables, paragraphs
  and textboxes with a single method call.

* Paragraph control enables automatic alignment of multi-line text items.
  Left, Right, Center or Justify alignment can be achieved just by a single
  property setting.

* Built-in Header and Footer control further simplifies document creation,
  as the task of rendering repeating items can be delegated to the
  component itself.

* Extensible, well planned architecture enables speedy and clean
  implementation of new features and formats.

* Allows end-user configuration of document output through run-time
  dialogs.

* SPEED. All engines of eDocEngine are highly optimized for high-speed
  rendering of commands and metafiles. Ideal for dynamic Internet and
  Intranet application development.
