I am implementing your idea to toggle the tool based on selection. An obvious, yet elegant solution! I had already implemented the storing and redisplay, but trapping on the object selection is clearly the best approach. Thank you tremendously! -Eric

Attached is the sample project you guys put together many months ago (continues to be a life saver for me - Thank You!). This project uses a new instance of the IPXV_Tool. I want to interact with the new regions like I would any other object when in Hand mode. For example, if I draw a textbox and th...

Daniel - Uhhmmmm... I did post my question in the SDK forum so I was expecting a coding response. However, your excellent screenshots were very helpful for perspective. Everything I was posting involves the code directly. For example, off the PDFXEdit.IPXC_Page, the IPXC_Page.Label is READ ONLY. The...

Problem Description: I need a way to "name" a PDF page separate from the document properties. For example, if I have 3 pages in a document, I can rename each to be "Mo", "Joe", and "Curly" and the page numbers are treated differently from this "name"...

Vasyl - I have searched your online HELP and there is no place that even references the list of parameters such as "ExtractPagesAction" or "FileName". So I do not know where you think I am going to find the definitions for all of these options. Feel free to send me the links to t...

Attached is a C# project you guys put together for me several months ago (CUSTOM TOOL BUTTON). I have several problems that I still cannot fix in the code. Using your sample project, can you tell me how to do the following: 1) how do I maintain the regions highlighted because they disappear upon any...

I thought I had it working but after lots of testing I realize the Inst class is not generating an output. Here is my code ... Dim pdfDoc As IPXC_Document Dim v_Inst As IPXV_Inst = PDFPreview.PDFcntrl.Inst Dim nID As Integer = v_Inst.Str2ID("op.document.extractPages", False) Dim inputOpera...

Hey guys... this is a follow-up to https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/viewtopic.php?t=39453 and I have been using https://sdkhelp.pdf-xchange.com/view/PXV:op_document_extractPages. My problem ... I cannot figure out how to export the page to a byte array. I store everything within a SQL Server so I need ...

Thank you Stefan! Yes... I will email instead. The last time I emailed, I got an email back telling me not to ever email but to post on forums. I definitely would rather have sent email than make these types of posts. Something is definitely goofy since my active tracker account does not match with ...

Stefan - you probably didn't look at my post very closely as your reply suggests I am not running your latest release. Your latest release is May 18, 2022 and your team has already made changes to the DLL since then (see my notes of the new class extensions from my original post). You do realize tha...

My searches are coming up empty and I need to synchronize my PDFXEdit dll with the most recent dll release from you guys. For example, my current licensed version is missing: IUIX_Event >> tagPoint get_Pos() >> void set_Pos(ref tagPOINT stPos) AND missing for IPXC_Page >>PXC_Rect get_Box(PXC_BoxType...

I am sure this is posted somewhere but I just cannot seem to find it in this forum. Can someone post the link to the code that lets me call a specific page extraction? I am trying to implement (currently unsuccessfully): 1) count the number of pages within the PDF 2) extract a specific page for sing...

Gentle Folks - I am trying to confirm that there is no function available for me to load a Byte() directly into the PDF control? In effect, I want to pass a memory stream directly as an object into the editor control. It would look something like this ... pdfCtl.OpenDocFrom(myBytes()) I know that th...

How can I validate PDF content against PDF/X, PDF/A, PDF/VT or PDF/E criteria? I am sure i am missing something super easy but I do not find it in the documentation. Let me know the reference link and I can research the rest ... I just can't find it :) Is there a sample posted somewhere? Big Thank Y...

Ivan - Your feedback makes perfect sense - Thank You! I was guessing that you guys are using some kind of hashtable or dictionary to group the different objects so that users can display or not display. Bummer that this part is not exposed for read-writes, but again, I can imagine the headaches of p...

To be more specifically clear ... the OnEvent does NOT fire simply by adding the control and its associated OnEvent method. Why?

Daniel - I don't think you have actually read my posts. The fact that you sent me a link to the same link that I already posted is frustrating. It looks like you have me confused with someone else because I am a developer and your reply suggests you think I am a product user. Postings due to PDF jar...

Vasyl - Thank you!! Can you please look at the attached project and tell me why the OnEvent handler is not firing? What is getting instantiated in the FullDemo that I am missing ... this does not make any sense as this should be super simple.

Hmmm... the concept of "overlays" are on your EU website ... https://pdf-xchange.eu/epdfx6/overlay.htm But technically, your specs refer to them as PDF layers ... https://www.pdf-xchange.com/knowledgebase/547-What-are-Layers-in-PDF I apologize for any confusion on the topic, as I am sure t...

I am trying to decouple the raw PDF form from any changes made to the form. Would you have any recommendation on how to do this? My current solution is to use overlays, but I have not found much documentation on how to implement overlays and the FullDemo does not have any functioning overlay that I ...

So I need to create my own custom tools for every one of the form editors just to trap the OnMouseUp event? Are you sure there is no event triggered after a form editor (like a text box) is added to a layer? If I have to write my own custom tool to replace every one of the tracker form editor tools ...

Vasyl - I have searched through the FullDemo code and there is no such JBIG code like you posted. I honestly have no idea where your code snippet came from because I also searched through all C# samples and never found your code. However, I am converting and testing your code approach. It looks like...

The title is a little misleading and I am sure that it has been answered somewhere previously in this forum. What I am trying to do is: Goal: Popup a "required" window with specific properties the user must enter whenever they are adding a form editor field. Regardless if it is a textbox, ...

I have been trying to implement JBIG from https://sdkhelp.pdf-xchange.com/view/PXV:IPXC_Document_SetEncodersForStreamType and https://sdkhelp.pdf-xchange.com/view/PXV:IPXS_EncodeFiltersArray_AddFilterInfo but I am not having much success. Specifically, I am looking for an example in .NET that follow...

I can only get my code to work using the Tracker menu, I cannot get a custom menu to work correctly. So just confirming ... there is no way for me to create my own menu? I am forced to you use the Tracker menu for everything?

WOW! Great explanation ... I learned something new on this one. Thank you for all your patience!

I think we are not communicating about the same thing ... what I posted was about "get_Pos()" and "get_Box". Something is really odd ... I set the project reference to the same PDXEdit.dll and it shows this code for the IUIX_Event from a NEW Project: Namespace PDFXEdit <ComConver...

Thank you Vasyl! I am getting stuck on simply creating the rectangle draw on the viewer. Super simple stuff like how to put the control into a select or draw mode (like what happens after I choose "edit text" or "insert text"). I want to recreate what your menu commands do from s...

Visual Studio 2019
I code in VB.NET but the class extensions are not recognized in the C# either.

Ivan - Thank you tons for the sample code. I notice that you used a few compressed coding lines that are just not making sense as I cannot convert them cleanly into steps. When you can... please break out these lines with their associated references: line 1: tagPOINT pt = pEvent.get_Pos(); issue: ge...

Hey Folks – Is there a sample project that provides all of the major IPX functionality using code only? For example, I want to add an acroform field programmatically using the UI with mouse up/down events without using the IPX menu. Step 1: put the mouse into draw mode, Step 2: capture a region base...

Ivan - very fair question! Specifically, there are 2 use cases. In each case, the user will perform a selection by using their mouse too select a region on the PDF through the PDF Viewer. The information being extracted should be in tabular form and can break across pages. Case 1: The PDF is searcha...

Thank you for that reference. Do you have any actual implementation insight or suggested approach that has been successfully attempted before? I am sure I am not asking a unique question ... "How to select a region and retrieve all text and/or all image data within that region and save it to a ...

My sincerest apologies as I am just getting started with the SDK. I have spent a couple of days already and I am just not making progress. Problem: I want to select a region within the PDF and put into a memory stream to print as its own PDF document. This is a precursor step to sending it to my own...
