In Filemaker you need to initialize the DynaPDF Library with the plugin. The plugin loads the dynapdf.dll (Windows) or dynapdf.dylib (Mac) from the file system, so please include the library with your Filemaker solution. Initialization in our example database looks like this:
Once you initialized the library, you can use the functions. For example in this script we start a new PDF, we open a PDF from a container and import all pages. Than we can render a page from the PDF and store it in a container field:
If you try the plugin, please also read the dynapdf_help.pdf file and if you have an idea for a new function for our plugin related to PDF, please let us know. The DynaPDF library is huge and has thousands of features. Over the next months we'll add quite a few.
On the license side, you need both a license for the MBS FIlemaker Plugin and a DynaPDF license for use with Filemaker. If you like to order a license, please visit our order page or simply contact us, especially if you already have a DynaPDF license for another development tool.
