I am trying to implement bookmarks for a single page PDF using PDFsharp on a C# project using Visusal Studio 2019. I get it to work if I place a breakpoint in the last line of the code under. But without the breakpoint it is throwing an exception.

The code I am using:

Code:
PdfDocument document = PdfReader.Open(FilePath, PdfDocumentOpenMode.Modify);
PdfPage pagepdf;
pagepdf = document.Pages[0];
PdfOutline outline = document.Outlines.Add("Sheets", pagepdf, true, PdfOutlineStyle.Bold); Gives exception at this line
document.Save(FilePath);
document.Close();



The exception is:
System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: 'Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.'
InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'PdfSharp.Pdf.PdfNull' to type 'PdfSharp.Pdf.Advanced.PdfReference'.


What am I doing wrong? Why does it work when the breakpoint is on the line that the give exception?

I'm able to execute this just fine in dotnetfiddle.net. Try running your code in Release mode.
Code:
     // Create a new PDF document
      PdfDocument doc = new PdfDocument();
      doc.AddPage(new PdfPage());
      MemoryStream str = new MemoryStream();
      doc.Save(str, false);
      
      PdfDocument document = PdfReader.Open(str, PdfDocumentOpenMode.Modify);
      PdfPage pagepdf;
      pagepdf = document.Pages[0];
      PdfOutline outline = document.Outlines.Add("Sheets", pagepdf, true, PdfOutlineStyle.Bold);
      
      Console.WriteLine(document.Outlines.Count);
      
      document.Save(str);
      document.Close();

Perhaps it the issue is the PDF that is being changed. I believe that is PDF1.7. But I also tried with 1.5 without success.

Please see the PDF in the link under. I did not manage to upload it to this post.

Do you manage to add outline to this one?

I am also able to run the sample code from PDFsharp to create 5 pages and add bookmarks.

I'm able to run your code using the pdf you'd provided and didn't encounter any exceptions. I'm using PdfSharp v1.50.5147.
