The "PDF Virtual Printer SDK Based on Postscript Printer Driver for Developer Royalty Free" is a powerful tool for developers, allowing them to easily convert documents into PDF format. This virtual PDF printer, known as the "VeryPDF PDFPrinter," provides a range of functionalities that can be customized to meet specific needs. While it offers a robust set of features out of the box, there may be instances where you want to add more paper sizes or adjust the margins to zero for all papers.
