About

PowerPDF is a set of visual and non-visual components, which can be used to create PDF documents.

The Delphi version of PowerPDF is licensed under the LGPL. The Lazarus port is as well.

Download

PowerPDF for Lazarus can be downloaded from the Lazarus CCR SourceForge mirror or from here.

Requirements

PowerPDF for Lazarus has been tested with Lazarus 0.9.10 and the 0.9.11 nightly builds. Earlier versions have been untested.

PowerPDF for Lazarus depends on the JPEGForLazarus package, which should be in your Lazarus installation directory in \components\jpeg.

Installation

  • First install JPEGForLazarus. This can be skipped if JPEGForLazarus is already installed
  1. Open the jpegforlazarus.lpk file in the direcotry <Lazarus-install-dir>\components\jpeg
  2. (Click the Compile button only if don't want to install the component into the IDE.)
  3. Click the Install button to install the jpeg components in the Lazarus IDE.
  4. Lazarus should restart.
  5. Make sure JPEGForLazarus was successfully installed by checking under the 'Components->Package Graph' menu if JPEGForLazarus is mentioned there.
  • Next install PowerPDF
  1. Unpack the .gz file to a place where Lazarus can find it (e.g. the components subdirectory).
  2. Open the pack_powerpdf.lpk file in Lazarus.
  3. (Click the Compile button only if don't want to install the component into the IDE.)
  4. Click the Install button (make sure that also the .pas files are available).
