Posted on March 29, 2011 by Debenu

Recently Debenu’s CTO published an article at Planet PDF, which is Debenu’s PDF news and discussion site, about automatically repairing PDF files when they are loaded:

PDF files come in all shapes and sizes. They vary from relatively simple to mind-numbingly complex. PDFs can also differ in their degree of conformance to the PDF specification — the bad ones are often called malformed PDFs. In this article, Rowan Hanna discusses the pros and cons of Adobe Acrobat automatically repairing these malformed PDF files.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year

Posted on December 21, 2010 by Rowan Hanna

2010 has (almost) come and gone and what a year it has been. We’ve released new versions of Benubird, Quick PDF Library and Quick PDF Tools and we’ve also launched a new PDF utility called Quick PDF Tools Pro.

But that isn’t all: a few months ago we acquired Planet PDF, PDF Store and ARTS PDF, which has helped to cement Debenu’s place as a leading provider of PDF solutions.

2010 has been a great year, but we plan on making 2011 even better. We’ll be kicking off the new year with exciting updates to ARTS PDF Aerialist, ARTS PDF Crackerjack and Quick PDF Library, in addition too some “still secret” news.

As some of you may have noticed, Christmas is a few days away, so the team at Debenu will be taking a short break from the 24th of December until the 2nd of January to unwind and freshen up for the year ahead. Of course by “break” we mean we’ll be checking our email every other minute as opposed to every minute. A skeleton crew will be on hand to assist should you have any urgent issues that need to be dealt with prior to the end of the holiday period.

From everyone here at Debenu, we’d like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Happy holidays.

Posted on December 20, 2010 by Rowan Hanna

We’ve just released version 7.23 of Quick PDF Library. In comparison to the previous version this is a relatively minor release, but it still has lots of goodies.

The 7.23 release includes a new LIB edition of our PDF SDK for C/C++ developers, as well as some important improvements to the existing digital signature functionality and some very useful improvements to the SDK’s font handling.

You can download the latest version of Quick PDF from its updates page.

As it’s December 20, this will be the final release for 2010. We’ll pick 2011 off with a bang in late January with the 7.24 release, which is already shaping up to be quite an exciting release. Stay tuned!
