Hi Support,

What's wrong with the below code - why is the resulting page newDoc's empty:

//pseduo
IPXC_Content pContent = CoreDoc.Pages[0].GetContent(CAccessMode_FullClone);

//not sure if needed, but no changes in resulting page: 
//IPXC_Content pContentClone = pContent.Clone(false)

CoreDoc.Pages[0].Get_Box(PBox_MediaBox, stMediaBox)

newDoc = IPXC_Inst.NewDocument

newDoc.Pages.AddEmptyPages(0, 1, stMediaBox, nil, pUndoData);

newDoc.Pages[0].PlaceContent(pContent[Clone], PlaceContent_After);

newDoc.WriteToFile(...)

The resulting "newDoc" has one page but it is empty.

The pContent (content from 1st page of CoreDoc) does have items (so not empty).

What am I missing?

Hello zarkogajic,

The thing is that you cannot just simply copy contents between documents. This can be done only with the container that the content resides in. To put it simpler - you will need to copy a needed page to the needed document, copy the content from it and then remove the page.

Cheers,
Alex

Hi Alex,

ok, thanks.

you will need to copy a needed page to the needed document

Any other way than InsertPagesFromDoc ?

Hello zarkogajic,

I'm afraid that you will have to cope with that one.

Cheers,
Alex
