We license eBook and PDF technologies to software developers. Many of these toolkits, such as the Adobe PDF Library SDK and Adobe Reader Mobile SDK, are technologies developed by Adobe Systems, Inc. and licensed through us; others, such as DL Pager and DL PDF2IMG, are typesetting technologies developed inhouse. These products help software developers around the world build better solutions in less time.
