SWING pdf converter is very easy to install and configurable. It takes very less time for conversion.

Pros

The SWING pdf converter is incredibly stable and simple to use. It is highly powerful, and because it employs Notes-forms as the foundation of the print-design, it is very simple to produce WYSIWYG-documents. I highly recommend it. The best part of the SWING pdf converter is that the time of conversion is very less and the quality is good.

Cons

The only issue I discovered is that when we try to make a PDF with large images, the program refuses to accept it and crashes. Also, it is slightly expensive.

We used the SWING PDF Converter API which allows to convert the notes document, keep the formating, keep the attachments, and concatenante parent and endless number of response documents in a unique PDF. The API is very well documented and the numerous examples were very useful to produce quickly a POC which helped us to win the projects.

Pros

In the competition for project acquisition, we choose the SWING PDF Converter API to male an innovative and competitive project. We get the project and the customers were very happy with the delivered result. The API helped us to export / concatenate, enrich the Lotus Notes documents and the metadata and move them to a new system.

Cons

We used the SWING PDF Converter API and not the product itself cause we were searching endless liberty to export the data in the most cenvenient format.

Our business is present packaging and shopping bags. Online we wanted to enable our websites visitors to get quotations for individual productions of shopping bags. At the end of the web process, the visitor should recieve our automated quotation by mail in the form of an attached PDF file. A similar process should be invented for order confirmations in our online shop. With help of the SWING PDF API the programming has been really fast and with a weeks work, we now have created custom functions, we can use everywhere in Domino.

Pros

Swing PDF Converter comes with a great API, which enables every IBM/HCL Domino Developer to let Domino- or Web users create perfect looking PDF-Files. A Domino Administrator can easily deploy a PDF Toolbar to every client, which gives the user the possibility to create PDF-Files from every Notes document, view or folder

Cons

If there is a con, I missed a multilingual support. A developer has to translate some forms. With each release or update, the developer has to check, where changes have been made and might have to translate again.

See above

Pros

It provided the function calls I needed to generate a PDF documents and attach them to client forms ready to send out to clients.

Cons

The automatic 'make this notes document into a pdf' doesn't work for us as our client forms seem to be too complicated with tables inside tabbed tables .

We use the SWING PDF Converter to create invoices and the product has done so without a hick-up for many years.

Pros

It is very powerful, and since it uses Notes-forms as base of the print-design, it is pretty straight forward to create WYSIWYG-documents. Also love the robustness of the product

Cons

Not much, but you need to know your way around Notes-development to get it going.

Pros

The conversion of PDF works very well with the Swing PDF Converter. The content of all tabs and sections of the document is visible, attachments will be embedded in the document and also document links are working within the PDF document (initial planning needed). It's easy to integrate the libraries into own Domino databases. In summary it's a great product! Congratulation to SwingSoftware!

Cons

Sometimes the performance could be better, but I don't assign it to the Pdf converter. It depends on the infrastructure (network, ..) and in LotusScript you can't convert documents in parallel - that's not an issue of Pdf converter!
