PCLReader is a limited, subset of PageTech`s PCLWorks Program ($89) to showcase what the commercial product can do. PCLWorks program can convert PCL & Text into vector EMF, WMF and PMF formats. It can also convert to various levels of vector/text/raster PDF and PDF/A files. It`s only page volume limitation is a 50,000 pages per 30-day interval. PCLWorks includes the full suite of PCL application developer tools including: Img2PCL, Img2PDF, PCLSplit and PCLCodes.

However, most of PageTech`s business is derived from OEM`s other licensees of its various PCLTool SDK ($495-$5,195) options. SDK page volumes range from 50,000 pages per 30-days to unlimited pages. Options include writing you own .NET code using our API to using our PCLXForm program with it`s custom script programming language for rapid application development, maximum flexibility and extensibility.

PageTech has been providing PCL transformation and typeface conversion tools to the software developer marketplace since 1993.
