Answer 1

Last month I needed a PDF reader (and later also a writer) so I created this PDF libraries comparison table.
So, I decided to share it here, since it seems it is on demand :)

If you know other good PDF library send its details (platform, price, read/write, etc) so we can make an informed decision.

Answer 4

Can be easy ported to Delphi.

The library "Free JPDF Pascal" is written entirely in "Free Pascal" pure. It was created from the conversion of the FPDF library code written in PHP (http://www.fpdf.org).

You do not need the LCL. It can be used to generate PDF reports for Desktop Applications, Web CGI and / or Mobile.

Answer 6

There is also Quick PDF Library, which I have not used myself but only had a quick look at the trial. They have a Lite version (ActiveX only) which is free, and which may meet your needs.

Answer 7

I have been using wPDF for about three years. It is simple to use, comes with examples, and can be extended pretty easily. It works with old and new versions Delphi up to 2010. It's not free but it does have a trial.
