This engine uses the default Internet Explorer rendering engine that comes with the Windows operating system.

This engine is only supported by the Windows platform.

This engine uses the WebKit rendering engine. For more information, refer to WebKit Rendering Engine Support.

The WebKit rendering engine is supported by the Windows, Linux and macOS platforms.

The following behavior occurs when L_HTMLENGINE_AUTO (the default value) is used:

Windows: LEADTOOLS will search for ltWebKitEngine and wkhtmltox.dll. If found, then L_HTMLENGINE_WEBKIT is used. Otherwise, L_HTMLENGINE_IE is used.
Linux/macOS: LEADTOOLS will always search for ltWebKitEngine and wkhtmltox.so. If not found, loading of HTML is not supported.
