In PDF Clown, is it possible to generate a PDF file using a specific font, but without reading the data of this font? It is okay if the font is not embedded in this file, so that the user who opens this file will need to have the font in his or her computer. In PDF Clown, it seems that I need to specify the font file path or the font file data. This is problematic, because it is not easy to find them. Is it possible to simply specify a font name and a font size, and then use this font in a PDF file,...
I wanted to make a simple page extraction from one file to a new pdf single page file. I tried many methods. Only one worked but every now and then I get an exception about the object. I checked and the objects are not null. How can i complete this simple task? This is my code: org.pdfclown.files.File mainFile = new org.pdfclown.files.File(fullpdfname); var mainDocument = mainFile.Document; var myfile = new org.pdfclown.files.File(); var targetDocument = myfile.Document; var extractedPage = mainDocument.Pages[idx];...
Does PDFClown support PDF-A/3 format? I need to create a PDF document with embedded XML
Hi! Would like to ask how I can extract Hebrew text from a PDF document. I used the sample code that was written for release 0.0.8 and adapted it to the current 0.1.2 However, the Hebrew text comes out in reverse. :) Left to right. Is there any way to load it in the right order? TIA Rudy

Hi, I'm new in this forum. I use the PDFClown in my project in order to extract every attachments, possibly include in a PDF and got an error on some special ZUGFeRD PDFs (PDFs with a XML meta datas inside). I think I found the error, anyway I can extract the attachment now (after fixing). What shoud be the way to provide my suggestion to the developer of ClownPDF?

I think Stefano, the author of this Project has abandoned this and is not responding to questions or forum posts anymore. Project started ambitious and gave information about a lot of features, it also speaks about AcroFormFlatteningSample here https://pdfclown.org/2014/09/12/waiting-for-pdf-clown-0-2-0-release/ but after 2015/2016 there seems very little news.
Hello, is there an update to appearance stream in the 2.0.0 release ? https://www.nuget.org/packages/PDFClown.NET/ In particular, how can someone set the 'RichTextValue' property of an existing Form field that already has the 'isRichText' property enabled?
Hello, can the latest version of PDFClown 2.0.0 (https://www.nuget.org/packages/PDFClown.NET/ ) be used to embed all missing fonts in an existing PDF file ? If so, how can this be done - a simple Prototype code would be nice thank you -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
You can use TextMarkup for Highlight,Squiggly,Strikethrough, and underline. and for font styling, you can use TextChar.getStyle() which will return object of TextStyle
Array.Copy(...) in Buffer.Read(...) throws ArgumentException when extracting text
I am making a program in C# which allows users to input a file through a windows form and select the destination to which they want to save the file. At which point at completion it will split the 1 file into multiple based on their 'account no', an account may have multiple pages or only one so it has to be able to read the lines/text within the PDF file to split. I have had a look on here and on the API to make sense on how I would do this but I haven't had much luck. I have tried other open source...
Hi, I am currently looking for a library that can offer me compression, where I get to keep resolution, but still decreases the file size. All I found out about PDF Clown’s compression is, that it has that feature. Could you help me figure out if it is actually a fit for me? Also is this project discontinued?
Redact text
my extraction include coordinates and size of every object. It works well, but I have one problem: When the page rotation is rightward there is a bug in text extracting- I got the text and the position but something wrong with the size of the box and the font-size of the text. this pdf file is attached here i will be happy if you look at this file and tell me what the problem and how to fix it. i don't know if the library supports files like that (with rightward rotation) Thanks Efrat Zadok
I use pdfclown to extract text and images from pdf documents. It works well, but I have one problem: When the page rotation is rightward there is a bug in text extracting- I got the text and the position but something wrong with the size of the box and the font-size of the text. How can it be? How to solve it? Thanks Sent from Mail for Windows 10
I have a very simple issue. I try to find any examples but I can't. I have a windows applicaion and I have a button on form. When user clicks the button, I want to launch the pdf file that already exist, so user can view it or print it by clicking a button. I want to open the pdf file inside a panel or richtext box. Can I accomplish this function using the PDF Clown? Can you provide me a sample code? Thanks
Lonely low surrogate code points using TextExtractor
I'm new to PDFClown. Very impressed with it. While it seems very powerful, it seems a bit more than I really need. Any good docs/overview out there other than the PDFClown reference? My immediate need is to insert an image onto a page and then put several text strings over the image. For example... PrimitiveComposer composer = new PrimitiveComposer(page); composer.ShowXObject(imageXObject, new PointF(0, 0)); composer.SetFont(new StandardType1Font(package.document, StandardType1Font.FamilyEnum.Courier,...
I was able to replace the operand with one for an Artifact. However, Its change appeared during the debug session. But the file.save doesn't seem to keep the changes. I'm not using the scanner anymore so I'm not using the stamper either. I'm not executing the stamper.Flush() method. Is there some kind of flush that should be happening pior to the file.save()? Thanks
Using a text extraction sample which uses a scanner, I'm trying to edit header.operands that are Figures to Artifacts for accessibility reasons. All the images in this documet provide no useful infomation. If turns out to always be the first Header.Operands that i wish to change. I have many document to modify and the documents are over a hundred pages in length. I've tryed to set the Pdfname objects value but I get an error that the set method is not accessable. Any help would be appreciated. T...

When I have two original portrait PDF files and merge them then everything works fine. But when one document is rotated by this way: For Each Pagina As Page In Document.Pages Pagina.Rotation = contents.RotationEnum.Rightward Next and saved after then in Adobe it looks correct but merged to the source document the page dimensions are 210x210. So it looks like that with the rotation something is not quite well or I missed a part but I hope someone have a good idea... or Im the first to try to rotate...
I try to Add a Landscape PDF document to the original Portrait one. The rotation works fine but after the page clips are 210x210. So the format is not going well.

I had the same problem, but I noticed those files that error out are files with Forms. I even tried it with the sample generator and got the same error. Here is how to replicate it: 1. Run the Sample class. 2. Select option 0 - AcroFormCreationSample 3. Create the form file and quit the application. 4. Copy the output file into the samples folder 5. Run the Sample class again. 6.

Undisposed Stream Issue in pdfClown.Net
Null Reference Exception in PageManager.Split()
So...this actually doesn't quite cover every kind of pdf document, so if anyone has input that would be appreciated
So actually I found what I needed, here it is for anyone that needs it: public static void applyLayer(Document targetDoc, Document sourceDoc, Layer layer) { Page page = sourceDoc.Pages[0].Clone(targetDoc) as Page; Contents pageContents = page.Contents; PrimitiveComposer composer = new PrimitiveComposer(targetDoc.Pages[0]); composer.BeginLayer(layer); foreach(ContentObject obj in pageContents) { composer.Add(obj); } composer.Flush(); }
One thing to note...current output.pdf basically just has pdf1 followed by two instances of pdf2...instead of applying in to the layer it simply adds an additional page, which isn't what I want
Hello, My project starts with two PDFs. Call them source PDF and target PDF. I want to: Copy the first page of source PDF. Create a second layer on the target PDF Apply the first page of the source PDF to the second layer of the Target PDF My code consists of the following functions: CreateLayer() AppendPage() ApplyPage() ApplyPage() is the only thing working incorrectly, can someone help me out?
