Hi All,


What is the licensing of pdfium?

Can I use the entire source code in my commercial application? including the foxit pdf parser?
How much of the pdf 1.7 spec does it implement?
Can I use it for parsing(reading) and writing(creating) pdf files?
Can it do other things like printing, editing etc?

Thanks
Thambi

The LICENSE file is here: https://pdfium.googlesource.com/pdfium/+/master/LICENSE

I'm not a lawyer and I cannot give you advice on licensing.

The PDF spec is... long. I have no idea what PDF 1.7 features are implemented. If you have specific features in mind, try it out and see.

Check out the public/ directory for the available APIs.
