Non-Windows Environment

Documentize SDKs support .NET Standard 2.0, which allows them to be used in .NET Core applications running on Linux or other non-Windows environments. To ensure optimal performance and correct text rendering, follow the steps below:

Recommended Setup for Linux

1. Install libgdiplus Package

This package provides necessary GDI+ functionality, which is critical for rendering and processing PDFs. You can install it by running the following command in your terminal:

sudo apt-get install libgdiplus

2. Install Microsoft Compatible Fonts

For correct text rendering, install Microsoft TrueType fonts using the command:

sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer

These fonts should be placed in the /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts directory. If your system stores fonts in a different directory, update the path in your code before performing any operations with Documentize SDKs:

Documentize.Text.FontRepository.Sources.Add(new FolderFontSource("<path to ms fonts>"));
