ダイアログパラメータフォームによる整然かつ一貫性のあるレポート作成と、フィルター・グルーピング・計算に必要な正確で検証済みの入力を確保

Dialog forms for parameters in reporting provide a structured and user friendly way to collect the inputs needed for accurate, relevant reports. Instead of relying on manual entry or remembered criteria, users are guided through fields that ensure consistent and valid information. This improves report quality and reduces errors in scenarios such as choosing date ranges, product categories, regions, or departments. By centralizing parameter entry in a clean interface, dialog forms let users focus on interpreting results rather than managing input details.

Several .NET WinForms reporting components allow you to create dialog forms for parameters, including:

  • DevExpress Reporting lets you create guided parameter dialogs that collect accurate user inputs, improving report precision, usability, and efficiency across applications.
  • Telerik Reporting allows you to build intuitive parameter dialogs that improve data selection, ensuring users generate consistent, reliable reports with minimal effort.
  • FastReport .NET WinForms facilitates customizable parameter dialogs that validate user input, enhancing report accuracy and simplifying complex filtering and configuration tasks.
  • Stimulsoft Reports.NET enables structured parameter dialog creation that helps users supply correct reporting criteria, delivering clearer insights and more dependable results.

PDFをWordに高精度に変換

Able2Extract Professional 21によるドキュメント構造解析精度の向上。元のPDFレイアウトを忠実に再現したWordファイルを生成。

Able2Extract Professional by Investintech delivers accurate conversion of native and scanned PDFs to editable Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PPT), AutoCAD, HTML, images and more, while ensuring that the original layout and formatting remain consistent after conversion. Besides PDF conversion, Able2Extract Professional allows users to batch create multiple PDF files at once, deal with interactive PDF forms, edit and customize PDF content and pages in many ways, and sign PDF documents with electronic and digital signatures.

The Able2Extract Professional 21 release significantly improves the PDF-to-Word conversion by enhancing its document structure analysis and table‑recognition capabilities. The conversion engine identifies and reconstructs paragraphs, so text flows naturally without random line breaks or disconnected fragments. In addition, tables in the PDF document are now more reliably detected: columns, rows, and even merged cells are preserved when exporting to Word so the tabular layout remains intact instead of collapsing into plain, unstructured text. Multi‑column layouts, common in newsletters, journals or technical reports, are also correctly identified and preserved, keeping the intended reading order and spacing. The result is Word output that more closely mirrors the original PDF.

To see a full list of what’s new in version 21, see our release notes.

Able2Extract Professional is licensed per user and is available with Investintech's Software Advantage Plan (SAP), an annual subscription which provides priority support, software updates and other benefits. See our Able2Extract Professional licensing page for full details.

PDFへのブックマークによるナビゲーションを追加

12月 10, 2025
ブックマークナビゲーション付きの.NET PDFコンポーネントによる、複数ページにわたる複雑なドキュメント内の特定箇所への迅速な移動

Bookmark navigation in a .NET PDF control allows users to access and move through predefined sections within a PDF document using a hierarchical list of bookmarks. While commonly used for chapters, bookmarks can also point to tables, figures, appendices, or any specific content, enabling flexible navigation across various elements of a document. Developers can create bookmarks dynamically based on document structure, metadata, or application logic, making it easier to guide users through complex content or highlight specific areas of interest.

Several .NET PDF components offer bookmark navigation including:

  • DevExpress PDF Document API for .NET (part of DevExpress Office File API) allows developers to programmatically add, edit, and remove bookmarks in PDFs.
  • Document Solutions for PDF by MESCIUS enables .NET apps to manage bookmarks so users can jump directly to pages, sections, or content elements in complex PDFs.
  • Aspose.PDF for .NET allows insertion and manipulation of PDF bookmarks so users can navigate to sections, headings, or customized targets efficiently.
  • Telerik UI for WPF PdfProcessing (part of Telerik UI for WPF) supports bookmarks in PDF documents, enabling hierarchical navigation inside .NET applications.

エンタープライズ利用におけるPDF署名の信頼性向上

12月 10, 2025
BFO PDF Library v2.29.4による、複雑な信頼チェーンへの対応強化と企業向けPDF処理における安定したデジタル署名検証

The BFO PDF Library by Big Faceless Organization is a high-performance Java toolkit for creating, editing, and displaying PDF documents programmatically. Designed for developers who need to generate or manipulate PDFs dynamically, it supports features such as PDF/A and PDF/X compliance, digital signatures, encryption, and complex layout capabilities including tables, charts, and barcodes. The library integrates seamlessly into Java applications and is often used in enterprise environments where reliable, scalable PDF output is required. It also includes a viewer component for rendering PDFs within Java user interfaces, making it suitable for both backend document generation and client-side display.

The Big Faceless PDF Library v2.29.4 update improves digital signature validation by enhancing support for “cross-signed” trust chains, where the signer's certificate is issued by an intermediary certificate authority rather than directly by a root authority. This change makes the validation process more reliable in enterprise and real-world environments, where certificate chains often include intermediate signers or alternate trust paths. By better recognizing and resolving these chains, the library reduces the likelihood of false negatives during signature checks, ensuring a more accurate reflection of a document’s authenticity. This enhancement is particularly useful for developers integrating PDF processes in regulated or compliance-heavy contexts, where accurate and consistent signature validation is critical.

To see a full list of what's new in v2.29.4, see our release notes.

Big Faceless PDF Library is licensed per server/machine and is available as an annual or a perpetual license depending on the use case. Technical support is available. See our Big Faceless PDF Library licensing page for full details.
