FreeSpire.PDF behind Spire.PDF

[scotthclearspaninc]

Is there a reason the versions are different between the FreeSpire.PDF (3.20) and Spire.PDF (3.5.51)?

Some features like PdfDocument.LoadFromStream() and PdfDocument.LoadFromBytes() are present in Spire.PDF but absent in FreeSpire.PDF.

Will FreeSpire.PDF track with Spire.PDF soon in this respect? Is this intentional?

Hello,

Thanks for your inquiry.
The Free Spire.PDF is limited to 10 pages of PDF. This limitation is enforced during loading and creating files. When converting PDF to Image, the first 3 pages of PDF files will be converted to Image format successfully. And free version has some limitation of function, like you mentioned PdfDocument.LoadFromStream() and PdfDocument.LoadFromBytes() and so on. We will update the free version when we have enough time. So we suggest you use commercial version.

Sincerely,
Betsy
