Referencing and Deploying the Assembly
The easiest way to reference and deploy DynamicPDF Converter in your project is by installing the NuGet package directly within Visual Studio's Package Manager. Alternatively, you can follow the instructions on this page to reference and manually deploy the assembly.
We recommend installing using the NuGet packages, as this is the easiest and least error-prone installation method.
Referencing From NuGet
To install the NuGet Package install it directly within Visual Studio's Package Manager.
- NuGet Package ID: ceTe.DynamicPDF.Converter.NET https://www.nuget.org/packages/ceTe.DynamicPDF.Converter.NET
Manual Installation
To install manually, download the assembly from the DynamicPDF website. The downloaded ZIP file (DynamicPDFConverterForNETv3.xx.zip) contains the assembly for .NET Standard 2.0.

Referencing the Assembly
To reference the assembly from Visual Studio:
- open your project's references window (right-click References and select Add Reference...),
- select the Browse tab from the Add Reference window and browse to the bin folder containing the installed DLLs,
- select the DynamicPDF.Converter.dll,
- then select OK to complete the selection.
32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x64) Versions
The DynamicPDF.Converter DLL file is built using the AnyCPU option and therefore does not require different 32-bit or 64-bit builds. The DynamicPDF.Converter.dll can run natively in either 32-bit or 64-bit environments.
Licensing
Although the evaluation version of DynamicPDF Converter is fully functional, PDFs created using the evaluation edition include a watermark on the PDF documents. Removing this watermark requires purchasing the application and adding a license key. A license key can be added to a .config file or programmatically in an application. Retrieve license keys from DynamicPDF's Customer Area on our website,http://www.dynamicpdf.com/CustomerArea.
If adding or updating the Converter license key in a .config file, you must restart the DynamicPDF Converter windows service for the license key to take effect.
