VeryPDF PDF Editor OCX vs Alternatives: Feature Comparison

How to integrate VeryPDF PDF Editor OCX into a Windows app

1) Prepare

• Download the PDF Editor OCX package from the vendor and unzip.
• Register the OCX on the target machine (run elevated Command Prompt):

  Code
  Copy CodeCopied
  regsvr32 “C:\path\to\pdfocx.ocx” 

• Keep the vendor sample apps and documentation handy (they include API references and examples).

2) Add the OCX to your project

• .NET (C# / VB.NET):
  • In Visual Studio: Project → Add Reference → COM → select the PDF Editor OCX (or use “Choose Toolbox Items” → COM Components → add the control). Visual Studio will generate an interop assembly and place an AxHost wrapper (e.g., AxPdfocx).
  • Drag the control from the Toolbox onto a Form to create an instance (axPdfocxMarkup).
• Native C++ / ATL / MFC:
  • Import the OCX type library (.tlb) or add the OCX as a COM component; use the provided wrapper classes or CoCreateInstance to instantiate the control.
• VB6 / Delphi / VBA:
  • Add the ActiveX control via Components → Controls (or Component palette) and drop the control onto a form.

3) Initialize and license

• Call the control’s license/registration method early (typical example):
  • C#:

    Code
    Copy CodeCopied
    axPdfocxMarkup.SetOrderID(“YOUR_REGCODE”, “Company”, “email”); 

  • VB:

    Code
     ffON2NH02oMAcqyoh2UU MQCbz04ET5EljRmK3YpQ CPXAhl7VTkj2dHDyAYAf” data-copycode=“true” role=“button” aria-label=“Copy Code”>Copy CodeCopied
    Pdfocx1.SetOrderID “YOUR_REGCODE”, “Company”, “email” 

• Optionally show/hide toolbars and panels using provided methods (e.g., ShowToolbar, MainToolbarHideButton).
