操作平臺與語言

操作系統

    Solid Framework 要求 .NET CLR，而且不支持 Windows 9x。 Solid Framework 要求 .NET Framework 2.0 或更新版本。該架構已在以下環境測試過：

• Windows XP SP2

• Windows 2003 Server

• Windows Vista

編程語言

    Solid Framework 是一個 CLS 兼容的類庫。意味著該類庫僅表現那些通常可跨越所有 .NET 語言的功能。比如，未簽名類型和超負荷方法均不使用，因為這些功能在所有支持語言中均不可用。

    簡而言之，所有范例和說明文件均為 C#。其他通常使用的 CLS 兼容語言是：

• C#

• Visual Basic .NET

• J#

Microsoft Office

PDF 創建

    PDF 創建通過打印到一個象 Solid PDF Creator 這樣的特別打印機驅動器來操作。Solid Framework 許可證對于 Solid PDF Creator 也有效，并且是自動應用。

    針對較為復雜的創建，應用程序特定的 PrintProviders 即表現為WordPrintProvider 一般。針對打印到 PDF 之后，自動從 Word 文件復制文件屬性到 PDF 文件的功能，它將提供支持。要支持 WordPrintProvider 則必須安裝 Office 2003 或 Office 2007（Vista）。

PDF 轉換

    將 PDF 轉換到 Word 可在不安裝 Microsoft Office 的情況下操作。但是，的確有兩項功能必需 Microsoft Office 2003 或 2007（Vista）：

• 識別非標準編碼字體必需 Office Tools（Document Imaging）以進行 OCR 識別

• 保存為二進位 .doc 必需 Microsoft Word（.rtf 和 WordML .doc 格式則不需要 Microsoft Word）

Platforms and Languages

Operating Systems

 Solid Framework requires the .NET CLR and does not support Windows 9x. Solid Framework requires .NET Framework 2.0 or later. The framework has been tested on:

• Windows XP SP2
• Windows 2003 Server
• Windows Vista

Programming Languages

 Solid Framework is a CLS Compliant class library. This means that the class library only exposes features that are common across all .NET languages. For example, unsigned types and overloaded methods are not used since these features are not available in all supported languages.

 For simplicity, all the samples and documentation are in C#. The other commonly used CLS Compliant languages are:

• C#
• Visual Basic .NET
• J#

Microsoft Office

PDF Creation

 PDF creation is done by printing to a special printer driver like Solid PDF Creator. The Solid Framework license is valid for Solid PDF Creator too and is automatically applied.

 For richer PDF creation, application specific PrintProviders exist like WordPrintProvider. This provides support for features like copying the document properties from the Word document to the PDF file automatically after printing to PDF. To support the WordPrintProvider either Office 2003 or Office 2007 (Vista) must be installed.

PDF Conversion

 Converting PDF to Word can be done without having Microsoft Office installed. However, there are two features which do require Microsoft Office 2003 or 2007 (Vista):

• Recognition of non-standard encoded fonts requires Office Tools (Document Imaging) for OCR
• Saving to binary .doc requires Microsoft Word (.rtf and the WordML .doc format do not require Microsoft Word)
