PDFlib Personalization Server建立在兩部分概念的基礎(chǔ)上：

• PDFlib Block Plugin for Acrobat"是一個交互式的工具它可以使開發(fā)者在已存在PDF數(shù)據(jù)的頂部根據(jù)給定屬性來定義區(qū)域。在一個隨后的服務(wù)器處理過程中PDFlib塊充當(dāng)著一個精確定義好的容器來填充文本、圖像或者PDF數(shù)據(jù)。
• PDFlib Personalization Server中的塊處理特性能夠使編程人員把包含在導(dǎo)入的PDF頁中PDFlib塊信息和動態(tài)信息(比如說，數(shù)據(jù)庫域)聯(lián)結(jié)起來。編程人員并不需要知道塊的任何詳細(xì)信息，因此這些詳細(xì)信息是完全獨立于設(shè)計變化的。PDFlib將在文件中存在的塊屬性基礎(chǔ)上充分考慮這些與塊相關(guān)的信息。
• PDFlib參考手冊中有一個概念詳細(xì)的解釋了PDFlib Personalization Server和內(nèi)置的PDFlib Block 。
• PDFlib Personalization Server是PDFlib產(chǎn)品包中制作的最好的一個產(chǎn)品，它是在基于PDFlib和PDI的基礎(chǔ)上構(gòu)建的。

The "PDFlib Personalization Server" is based on a two parts concept:

• The "PDFlib Block Plugin for Acrobat" is an interactive tool that enables the designer to define areas (PDFlib blocks) with given properties on top of existing PDF data. PDFlib blocks act as precisely defined containers to be filled with text, images or PDF data in a subsequent server side process.
• The block processing features as part of the PDFlib Personalization Server enable the programmer to connect the information contained in PDFlib blocks on imported PDF pages with dynamic information, e.g., database fields. The programmer doesn't need to know any details about a block and is therefore independent from any layout changes. PDFlib will take care of all block-related details based on the block properties found in the file.
• An excerpt from the PDFlib Reference Manual explains the PDFlib Personalization Server and the PDFlib Block Plugin in detail.
• The PDFlib Personalization Server is the most elaborate of the PDFlib product bundles and is based onPDFlib+PDI.
