Add and remove pages in an existing PDF

This sample shows how to insert and delete pages of an existing PDF document. Since PDF pages can't be edited in place, it reopens the source file with PdfReader and rebuilds it page by page with PdfWriter: copying each page's content with GetContent and Graphics.DrawContainer, skipping the page to remove, and adding a brand-new page where one should be inserted.

Assign a color profile to a bitmap

Replaces the embedded color profile of an image with a new one.

Combine channels

Combines image channels from multiple sources into a single image.

Combine multiple PDF files into one document

This sample shows how to combine the pages of several existing PDF files into a single multi-page PDF document. It opens each source file with PdfReader, copies every page's vector content into a new document with PdfWriter and Graphics.DrawContainer, preserving each source page's own size and resolution.

Compare Image Format Compressions

Compares compression of WebP, JPEG and PNG image formats.

Convert And Write JPEG

Converts to PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb to and saves to JPEG format.

Convert Animated GIF Image To WebP

Converts animated GIF image to WebP format.

Copy Clipping Path

Copies all Adobe resources including clipping path.

Copy Clipping Path (Memory Friendly)

Copies clipping path using memory-friendly Pipeline API.

Create a PDF/X-4 file with CMYK output intent

This sample shows how to create a PDF/X-4 document with a CMYK output intent using GraphicsMill. It demonstrates how to load a CMYK print profile, configure an OutputIntent, initialize a PdfWriter with that intent, convert an RGB image to CMYK using color management, and draw it onto a PDF page together with a solid CMYK-filled shape.

Create Business Card

Creates business card in PDF format.

Create Clipping Path

Demonstrates how to create Adobe resource block with path from SVG file and save it to JPEG format.

Create Multipage PDF

Creates multipage PDF with personalized wedding invitations.

Get embedded profile using memory-friendly Pipeline API

Gets and displays information about the embedded profile using the memory-friendly Pipeline API.

Get EXIF Thumbnail

Gets thumbnail of image from its EXIF metadata.

Lay out paragraphs, lists, and tab-aligned columns in a PDF

This sample shows how to lay out a page of formatted text directly in a PDF using BoundedText's XML-based markup: regular paragraphs with first-line indentation and paragraph spacing, a bulleted list with custom line leading, and a two-column schedule where each session's title flows from the left and its time is pushed to a right-aligned tab stop by a dot leader, the classic layout of a printed program or table of contents.

Load Multiframe Image

Loads multiframe image.

Load Save Stream

Loads and saves image to stream.

Modify Clipping Path Explicitly

Modifies clipping path explicitly.

Modify Clipping Path Explicitly (Memory Friendly)

Modifies clipping path explicitly using memory-friendly Pipeline API.

Overlay one PDF's graphics onto another

This sample shows how to overlay the vector content of one PDF file, such as a seal or logo, onto every page of another PDF file. It reads the stamp from "Seal.pdf" and the page content from "GraphicsContainer.pdf" with PdfReader, shrinks the stamp's GraphicsContainer to a fixed size with Scale, then draws the page content and the stamp together onto each output page with PdfWriter and Graphics.DrawContainer.

PDF Layers

Creates a PDF with layered content.

PDF To SVG

Reads vector content from a PDF file and saves it to an SVG format.

Png NeuQuant Example

Saves image to PNG format using different bitness, color quantization and dithering algorithms.

Process Complex EXIF Types

Reads and writes complex EXIF tags.

Read and Write JPEG

Reads and writes image in JPEG format.

Read and write PDF page boxes

This sample shows how to define print production page boundaries (MediaBox, CropBox, BleedBox, TrimBox, and ArtBox) when writing a 300 DPI PDF, and how to read them back afterwards. It builds a bleed-aware business card layout with PdfWriter and PdfPage, converting real-world sizes to pixels with UnitConverter, then reopens the file with PdfReader to show that CropBox, BleedBox, TrimBox, and ArtBox always come back in points regardless of the page's DPI.

Read Animated Gif

Reads frames of animated image in GIF format.

Read Clipping Path Flatness

Read a TIFF image that contains an Adobe resource block for clipping paths, retrieve and display the clipping path name and flatness.
