Note that the Document class represents the Pdf content as HTML, which will be used to construct a properly formatted Pdf file. The Document class, once initialized with the PdfReader instance and a new output FileStream, essentially becomes a container into which pages extracted from the source file represented in the PdfReader class will be copied. My simplified understanding of how this works is as follows: The PdfReader instance contains the content of the source PDF file.
#ITEXT EXPRESS 3.4.8 CODE#
In the following code sample, the primary iTextSharp classes we will be using are the PdfReader, Document, PdfCopy, and PdfImportedPage classes.

We’ll take a look at some relatively basic sample code which does just that, and get a feel for using the iTextSharp programming model. One of the most common tasks we need to do is extract pages from one Pdf into a new file. Extracting and Merging Pages from an Existing Pdf File the library itself it relatively lightweight, and fast. Needless to say, iTextSharp does not suffer this limitation. Net implementation of the Java Virtual Machine, within which the Java code of the PdfBox library is then executed. NET context, there was a serious performance hit, most notably the first time the PdfBox library was called, and the massive IKVM library spun up what amounts to a. While I found it very cool to be able to run Java code in a. PdfBoxĪs I observed in my previous post, is NOT a direct port of the PdfBox Java library, but instead is a Java library running within. However, iTextSharp does not suffer some of the performance drawbacks inherent to PdfBox, at least on the. I also noted that iText looked to be a little more complex, and I was correct. I noted in my previous post on PdfBox that PdfBox was a little easier for me to get up and running with, at least for rather basic tasks such as splitting and merging existing Pdf files. The Pdf file format itself is complex therefore, programming libraries which seek to provide a flexible interface for working with Pdf files become complex by default. ITextSharp presents a formidable set of tools for developers who need to create and/or manipulate Pdf files. to fill out interactive PDF forms, to stamp new content on existing PDF documents, to split and merge existing PDF documents, and much more.” can be used to create PDF Documents from scratch, to convert XML to PDF. As the project’s summary page on SourceForge states, iText “. NET port of the open source iText Java library for PDF generation and manipulation.
