PDF Junction vs. ShinePDF vs. VBScript vs. test_coverage Comparison Chart

At the heart of PDF Junction is a document processing engine capable of manipulating large volumes of PDF files to enable splitting, merging, setting of security, and other attributes. Convert batches of Word, Excel, and other files to PDF. Split PDFs by bookmarks, single pages, and ranges. Set PDF security and display options. Extract text and metadata from PDF documents. The Professional version of PDF Junction includes facilities to convert Microsoft Office and other documents to PDF. Batch processes can be defined using the GUI to create an XML Job Ticket file which can be run using the GUI, or using the command line. In addition, all options can be used from the command line without having used the GUI. The functionality of PDF Junction can be extended by using custom scripts which may be called at various points during the processing of a particular job. The custom scripts are Windows Script Files which allow scripting in either VBScript or Jscript.

VBScript is a programming language included with Microsoft Internet Explorer. For other browsers, contact your vendor about support. VBScript 2.0 (or later) is recommended for use with Agent. Although earlier versions of VBScript may work with Agent, they lack certain functions that you may want to use. You can download VBScript 2.0 and obtain further information on VBScript at the Microsoft Downloads site and the Microsoft VBScript site. With VBScript (2.0 or later), you can verify whether Microsoft Agent is installed by trying to create the object and checking to see if it exists. The following sample demonstrates how to check for the Agent control without triggering an auto-download of the control.
