Documentation / Install guides
Install ASP.NET Core
A self-contained web sample with the package bundled.
1. Get the package
The download is public and needs no key — unlicensed output carries an
evaluation watermark and nothing else is restricted. The package file is
aspnet.zip.
2. Check your platform
Two separate facts per platform: whether a licence key for this package covers it, and whether the download ships an engine binary for it.
| Platform | Licence covers it | Binary in the download |
|---|---|---|
win-x86 |
Yes | Yes |
win-x64 |
Yes | Yes |
win-arm64 |
Yes | Yes |
linux-x64 |
Yes | Yes |
linux-arm64 |
Yes | Yes |
macos |
Yes | Yes |
3. Install
shell
dotnet run --project LumasPdfWeb
4. Licence it
A licence is one key string, set once at startup. Buying one and installing it is covered by how licensing works; until then the engine runs fully functional with an evaluation watermark.
5. Your first PDF
The smallest complete program: create, write, close.
csharp
app.MapGet("/invoice", (string name, decimal amount) => {
// one engine instance per request: create, build, close, delete
using var pdf = new PdfEngine();
pdf.CreatePDF(stream);
// ...
return Results.File(stream.ToArray(), "application/pdf");
});
