### "Full Featured Bar Code SDK"

September 11, 2018

4.0

Pros

We have purchased a site/development license on the bytescout bar code SDK and used it in our products pretty seamlessly. It provides many read and write options, different bar code types, and efficiency scan options. It seems to do well with scanned barcodes that are not in pristine condition, and it draws bar codes accurately and without any hassle.

Cons

We did run in to some scanning issues back when we first purchased the product. but the dev team responded to our inquiry and fixed the issues in the next release.

### "I was able to create a custom tool to quickly extract pages as images in record time. Great product!"

June 30, 2017

5.0

I am able to save myself several hours a day previously spent doing the file conversions using other tools and methods. I get my life back and get the job accomplished too!

Pros

I had created a viewer application for my hundreds of magazines and books and it requires the page images as JPGs. I am trying to eliminate the several hundred hardcopy magazines and my only choice to replace them has been PDFs. I had been using various tools, both online and local along with a number of PowerShell routines to extract the pages and rename them from the filenames the tools gave them. This has been extremely time consuming and a real pain. With the SDKs in the PDF Suite, I was able to build a custom tool that quickly takes the PDFs and extracts the pages into any of several formats, named exactly what I need them to be, gives me all the information about the number of pages and more to write to the configuration files for my viewer, and to do it in less than two days. The hours and hassles this product saves me is going to be in the hundreds! The PDF Render SDK and the PDF Viewer SDK do just what I needed! I look forward to using all the tools in this suite as I have barely tapped the potential uses.

Cons

My only regrets with this software is the the speed of page transitions using the PDF Viewer SDK is not nearly fast enough when compared to loading the page image files instead in my viewer app. It would have been nice to be able to use the files in PDF form for the scaling capabilties of PDF files vs the rendered image versions.

thank you! We will improve the pdf to image speed in ByteScout in future versions. With default high quality rendering of 300 DPI (dots per inch) printing quality it can be little bit slow on rich vector graphics pdf files but we will improve this soon.

### "ByteScout BarCode"

September 8, 2019

4.0

have no problem with using this application, since I have previously requested allowed prefixes from gs1 organization.

Pros

Very easy to operate interface and precision when printing. Also the ability to set parameters to create the desired code.

Cons

There is no detailed instruction on the legality of using the created barcode. There is a possibility of matching the use of barcodes. Therefore, a specific prefix from a gs1 organization should be checked and ordered first.

### "Great PDF editing tool overall"

April 13, 2018

Pros

PDF Suite has been extremely helpful when working with PDF documents, specially when using it to fill pdfs. Also the abbility to convert the images saves a lot of time and keeps a lot of the original resolution that otherwise would be lost.

Cons

It could work a little bit faster, sometimes the software can be laggy. Otherwise I have no other type of complaint

5.0

Talking about my experience using PDF.co is very satisfying.. it provide easy way to convert my word doc in to pdf bcoz of this i save a lot of time since i dont need to download any other software to do my work

Pros

In my view pdf.co is the best online platform for all our pdf related issues such as spliting,merging,image to pdf converter,jpg to pdf converter,pdf to xls conveter, etc.It can also be used to convert a pdf file in to html file that can be viewed with any browser and it is free to use and easy to operate.

Cons

till my use i dont find any major disadvantage to talk about but it is completely online it will be good if it is available in offline also...

### "Easy to implement in code"

July 12, 2019

5.0

Pros

The simpleness of adding a bar code to an existing PDF. Less than 10 lines of code to get the bar code added to the file

Cons

The software was a more expensive than others solutions.

Reason for choosing ByteScout PDF Suite

Some of our developers are pretty inexperienced and they will be using this software for many projects. The Bytescout SDK keeps the learning curve very small for new developers to understand how to generate a bar code on an existing PDF without the need to generate a bitmap image prior.
