PDFsharp & MigraDoc Foundation

Hello all,

I am new to this tool, and had a quick question. I am working on a project now where I want to take a PDF, split it into 1 page documents, then generate thumbnails of each page. After that the user will have the option to combine the pages as they see fit.

I saw the code examples of splitting documents and combining documents, what I am wondering is, within the libraries of pdf sharp is there any way I could generate a thumbnail of the page? I would like to either be able to somehow generate the thumbnail on the fly (with no permanent file) or to generate it once (as say a jpg) and the load it into my SQL DB and store is as a binary ( for later display).

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks,

Chris.

Hi!

PDFsharp can't do that, but you can create thumbnails with the Ghostscript API.
Look at the Ghostscript.Demo for an example of calling Ghostscript.

Sounds good, will check it out. In advance, you know if there are any code examples in GhostScript of creating thumbnails?

Thanks for the reply,

Chris.
