Post subject: | Migradoc - Open existing PDF |
Hi, I am currently using both Migradoc and PDF sharp to create a catalogue page - This uses migradoc for the text and tables and PDFsharp to load in the images. The way I am doing this is by creating a new document using Migradoc to first create the document - write in the content, save the PDF, the PDFsharp opens the PDF and does the images. I have got to a point where I need to use migraDoc to write text on top of a shape drawn in PDFsharp, but I cannot find anyway of opening an existing PDF in migradoc. Please can you assist in either a) Opening an existing PDF in migradoc. or b) creating a number of rectangles in the background in Migradoc when I first create the document. I eagerly await your response. Kind regards Ben Wright |

Hi, Ben! foxwoodDesign wrote: I have got to a point where I need to use migraDoc to write text on top of a shape drawn in PDFsharp, but I cannot find anyway of opening an existing PDF in migradoc. There's no direct way to do this ... ... so open the file with PDFsharp: http://www.pdfsharp.net/wiki/MixMigraDo ... ample.ashx |

Hi Thank you for your swift response. I am not quite sure I understand. My process currently does the following: Create File with Migradoc Write in text and tables Save File Open saved file in PDFsharp Draw in images Save File I can draw the shapes in PDFsharp but the shapes need to be BEHIND the text drawn using Migradoc. Can I use Migradoc to write text on a PDF that was opened in PDFsharp - I am sorry I do not quite understand how to achieve this. Regards |

When modifying PDF pages, you can specify whether your changes are appended (showing on top) or prepending (showing behind existing items). The Watermark samples draw behind: http://www.pdfsharp.net/wiki/Watermark-sample.ashx |
