API compatibility and Removal of deprecated API Features
========================================================

PDFlib 10 removes all API methods and options which have been designated
as "deprecated" in PDFlib 9 or earlier. These methods and options must be
replaced in application code before switching to PDFlib 10.

The "PDFlib Migration Guide" contains a list of all affected methods and
options along with their newer replacements. The Migration Guide also
explains how to identify deprecated features in your application with
PDFlib 9.3 (or above) before migrating to PDFlib 10.

It is strongly recommended to review the Migration Guide and avoid the
use of deprecated features in application code to ensure forward compatibility.

PDFlib version numbers and .NET version numbers

The .NET binding uses a distinct versioning scheme which differs from
the PDFlib major/minor version numbers. The following table provides the
mapping:
