First, I would like to thank you for the 2 great libraries PDFSharp and MigraDoc.
I have a suggestion.
Use Case Description
I would like to use these libraries in ASP.NET Core, cross platform so that any ASP.NET Core application deployed anywhere can create PDFs documents on the fly with a good performance.
Possible Solution
PDFSharp and MigraDoc built with .NET Standard 2.0
Remove System.Drawing and use ImageSharp (Goes RC next month)
remove the WPF, GDI bits
Only support PDF, no RTF at the start
remove the preview function in the first version
remove all the code #if switches
Start afresh and drop support for older deployment types, existing PDFSharp supports this anyway.
Implementation Path Suggestion
I suggest creating a new repository which will implement this and port the following:
MigraDoc.DocumentObjectModel
MigraDoc.Rendering
PdfSharp
PdfSharp.Charting
@ststeiger @YetaWF have also created .NET Standard 2.0 partial ports, maybe they could help.
What do you think? would you be interested, see this as a good thing? Maybe we could all do it together.
