Post subject:  Add header and footer to an existing pdf document
Hi,

I would like to add or modify the header and the footer of an existing pdf document.

I'm only able to add a header and a footer to a new pdf document using migradoc.

Is it a way to add a header to an existing pdf document?

Thanks

Welby

Hi, Welby,

you can add header and footer using PDFsharp.

You can use MigraDoc to create a document with just header and footer and then use PDFsharp to merge the new document with the old document.

One example that draws text:

One example that uses MigraDoc and PDFsharp:

There are more samples on the site.

Hi Thomas,

The following code adds a header and a footer to a new pdf document.

I would like to do the same but for an existing pdf document.

Is it possible or not?

Can anyone help me on this?

Thanks

Code:
        Try
            Dim myDoc As Document = New Document
            Dim mySect As Section = myDoc.AddSection()

            mySect.AddParagraph("test hello world")

            Dim paragrph As Paragraph = mySect.Headers.Primary.AddParagraph()
            paragrph.AddText("Label: labelA1" & vbCrLf & "Issue: Issue1")
            paragrph.Format.Alignment = ParagraphAlignment.Right

            Dim paragrphFooter As Paragraph = mySect.Footers.Primary.AddParagraph()
            paragrphFooter.AddText("Footer reference")
            paragrphFooter.Format.Alignment = ParagraphAlignment.Right

            Dim myRenderer As PdfDocumentRenderer = New PdfDocumentRenderer(True, PdfFontEmbedding.Always)
            myRenderer.Document = myDoc
            myRenderer.RenderDocument()

            Const filename As String = "c://Demo1.pdf"

            myRenderer.PdfDocument.Save(filename)

            Process.Start(filename)

        Catch ex As Exception
            Debug.Print(ex.Message)
        End Try

It is possible with some effort on your side.

First option: create a new PDF document with MigraDoc containing headers and footers and lay the new pages over the existing pages using PDFsharp.

Second option: Follow the MixingMigraDocAndPDFsharp sample and draw header and footer directly onto the existing pages using "docRenderer.RenderPage(gfx, idx + 1); ".
