Datalogics: Our Superhero Origin Story

Published July 30, 2024

Datalogics, Inc., didn't invent PDF software, but we did help define it. Learn how we developed Adobe PDF Library SDK and became the global leader in PDF technology.

Datalogics didn’t invent PDF software, but we certainly helped define it. You may have never heard of us. Sometimes we forget to brag. So here it is – our About Us video that will let you get to know Datalogics a bit more. 

Our company was started in 1967 – yes, even before dial-up internet was invented. Go ahead and laugh. We do. And so do our kids. What that also means is that our company knows PDFs inside and out. We were the ones Adobe Systems asked to create a customized version of Adobe PDF Library SDK for one of their clients. (Full disclosure, we were once completely owned by Adobe, the mothership of PDFs, now we are a channel partner, so we’re cool-adjacent). We added more programming languages. And platforms. And command-line tools. 

Our PDF software is used by some of the largest companies in the world. Download a free trial of our flagship product, Adobe PDF Library. Pick your platform, pick your programming language, and test the hell out of it. You’ll see why we have a 94% customer retention rate.
