Feedback!
Any feedback large or small is appreciated. We’ll shortly be planning the next round of exciting new features for Quick PDF Library, so we’d really like to know what you want to see added to the SDK. Don’t be shy, email us at support@quickpdflibrary.com and have your say.
The loading of PNG images is now MUCH faster than before, this is great for us!
However, it’s still very slow when loading TIFF images. This isn’t a problem for us now, but maybe you should concentrate a little more on this aspect for users who need (faster) TIFF support.
As a positive feedback, I’ve noticed no problems with this beta.

Is this support 64bit environment?

No, the 7.21 release will not natively support x64 compilers. Though you can use Quick PDF Library in an x64 environment if you use the TCP edition or if you are able to target your projects to x86 releases.

Is there a 64-bit beta availible? I desperadly need a 64-bit active-x version of QuickPDF!

Regarding the 64-bit edition, we are waiting for a future version of Delphi to have a 64-bit compiler. We’ve been waiting a very long time for this and have the feeling that a 64-bit version of Delphi may be much longer than “suggested”. We’ve started work on refactoring the source code with a view to getting it to compile with the FreePascal 64-bit compiler. There is still a fair amount of work to do so we don’t have any time estimates yet. As an interim solution, we have the TCP/IP edition of Quick PDF Library. It runs as a service and provides access to the 32-bit API via a socket. Included with the TCP/IP edition are two sample client classes (one for C# and another for C++).
