Integrate PDFix into C++ applications (XCode, Visual Studio)

#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include "Pdfix.h"

}

Integrate PDFix into C# applications

using System;
using PDFixSDK.Pdfix;
namespace PDFix.App.Module

public static void Run(
String email, // authorization email
String licenseKey // license key
)
{
Pdfix pdfix = new Pdfix();

if (!pdfix.IsAuthorized())
throw new Exception("Pdfix Authorization fail");
// ...
pdfix.Destroy();
}
}
