It used to be a simple company with a plain offer. But they merge with foxit, which also offers a large set of pdf toolkits - C++ based alas. You might get lost. But the quickpdf tools are great and have a solid community background

Thanks, indeed this controls looks very promising. I posted a ticket at Visagesoft, but haven't heard from them yet. If the error cannot get resolved I will definitely look at this alternative.
