PdfSharpCore is a .NET Standard port of the PdfSharp and MigraDoc libraries for creating and manipulating PDF documents, with GDI+ dependencies replaced by SixLabors ImageSharp and Fonts. It runs cross-platform on .NET Core, .NET 6+, and Xamarin.
Use cases
- generate pdf files from .net core
- create pdf documents cross-platform in c#
- port pdfsharp code to .net standard
- draw text and images into a pdf programmatically
- generate pdfs in xamarin mobile apps
- replace gdi+ pdf generation with managed code
When to choose
- you need to create or modify PDFs in .NET Core/.NET 5+ or Xamarin without Windows/GDI+ dependencies
- you want a managed, cross-platform port of PdfSharp/MigraDoc APIs
When to avoid
- you need full PdfSharp feature parity, such as GetFontData or advanced font handling
- you need a commercially supported, fully stable PDF library
- you only target Windows with classic .NET Framework, where original PdfSharp works
