PDF Editor in Winform

[Guest]

Hello,

Does anyone know if there are any PDF Editors (ActiveX most likely) out
there that can be used/purchased to do some easy editing in PDF files?

What I'm doing is this:
- Based on articles, texts and images in database I create a PDF document
automatically. The application then publishes the PDF to a datastore
(webserver).

However, on some occasions the user may need to do some editing in the PDF
file before publishing it (change fonts, move/resize a picture etc). However
the users does not want to do the editing of the PDF document with Adobe
Acrobat (or another stand-alone editing tool), but want to be able to do this
in the Windows application where the file will be published directly after
saving the PDF file.

Therefore i'm curious if there exists such an ActiveX or similar that I
could use in my Windows Application (VB.NET). I've found several RTF editor
components out there that you can use, but no PDF components with a graphical
editing editing capabilities...

Any help, tips och references are greatly appreciated

Thanks!

Please take a look at www.neevia.com for a solution. I've successfully
built a ASP.NET and Windows form that takes an OFFICE file and converts it
into a PDF document. The ASP.NET application also takes a document stored
WHEREVER, and puts it on our server, converts it and then we just show the
file in a FRAME. Hope this helps.
