System Requirements

Setting up an Application

GcWord references are available through NuGet, a Visual Studio extension that adds the required libraries and references to your project automatically. To work with GcWord, you need to have following references in your application:

Reference

Purpose

GcDocs.Word

To use GcWord in an application, you need to reference (install) just the GrapeCity.Documents.Word package. It pulls in the required infrastructure packages.

GcDocs.Word.Layout

To enable saving Word documents to PDF, install the GrapeCity.Documents.Layout package (GcLayout for short). It provides extension methods allowing to save GcWordDocument as PDF.

GcDocs.Imaging

For image handling, you need to reference (install) the GrapeCity.Documents.Imaging package.

GcDocs.Imaging.Windows

On a Windows system, you can optionally install GrapeCity.Documents.Common.Windows. It provides support for font linking specified in the Windows registry, and access to native Windows imaging APIs, improving performance and adding some features (e.g. TIFF support).

GcDocs.DX.Windows

GrapeCity.Documents.DX.Windows is an infrastructure package used by GrapeCity.Documents.Common.Windows. You do not need to reference it directly.
