Outrageously Unsexy
Software

We get it. PDF software isn't known for being exciting or hip.

But with more than 3 trillion PDFs roaming the earth, it is essential for creating and editing the most common document type used today. 

 

Datalogics began working with Adobe PDF Library 25 years ago, adding more programming languages and platforms to the original version. We know PDFs inside and out.

Datalogics didn't invent PDF software, but we did help define it.
