VintaSoftImaging.NET SDK is the impressive and easy-to-use .NET imaging toolkit for software developer. The program allows you to load, view, process, print and save digital images, convert them to different image file formats, possess enhanced work with multipage TIFF and animated GIF files.

VintaSoft Imaging .NET SDK can be used as standalone component or its functions can be extended with VintaSoft Annotation.NET, PDF.NET, JBIG2.NET, JPEG2000.NET, DocCleanup.NET and OCR.NET plug-ins features in any combination. The proposed combination makes up the bundle named VintaSoft Document Imaging .NET SDK that perfectly suits for usage in digital document imaging and electronic documents circulation systems.

Using VintaSoftAnnotation.NET Plug-in you can add and process various forms of annotations to an existing TIFF, JPEG, PNG or PDF file in .NET environment.

Using VintaSoftPDF.NET Plug-in you can display, render, create, convert, annotate, extract text, print, save, manipulate and edit pages of PDF files in .NET environment.

Using VintaSoftJBIG2.NET Plug-in you can view, create, convert, manipulate and save black-and-white JBIG2 compressed images in .NET environment.

Using VintaSoftJPEG2000.NET Plug-in you can view, create, convert and save color and grey JPEG2000 compressed images in .NET environment.

Using VintaSoftDocCleanup.NET Plug-in you can cleanup scanned documents before text recognition, barcode recognition or saving to reduce their size.

Using VintaSoftOCR.NET Plug-in you can recognize text from scanned documents and generate searchable PDFs based on OCR results in .NET environment.
