This is the code used for merging:
private void MergeDifferentDocumentsPagesWithFixed()
{
string[] documentsToMerge =
{
"14301-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14302-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14303-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14304-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14305-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14330-STOCK_Proforma.pdf"
};
RadFixedDocument doc = new RadFixedDocument();
PdfFormatProvider provider = new PdfFormatProvider();
foreach (string current_item in documentsToMerge)
{
string path = @"..\..\Samples\" + current_item;
RadFixedDocument docToMerge;
if (!File.Exists(path))
{
continue;
}
using (Stream stream = File.OpenRead(path))
{
docToMerge = provider.Import(stream);
}
doc.Merge(docToMerge);
}
string outputFilePath = @"..\..\mergedFixed.pdf";
File.Delete(outputFilePath);
using (Stream output = File.OpenWrite(outputFilePath))
{
provider.Export(doc, output);
}
Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo() { FileName = outputFilePath, UseShellExecute = true });
}Workaround:
private void MergeDifferentDocumentsPages(string resultFileName)
{
string[] documentsToMerge =
{
"14301-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14302-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14303-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14304-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14305-STOCK_Proforma.pdf",
"14330-STOCK_Proforma.pdf"
};
File.Delete(resultFileName);
using (PdfStreamWriter fileWriter = new PdfStreamWriter(File.OpenWrite(resultFileName)))
{
foreach (string documentName in documentsToMerge)
{
string path = @"..\..\Samples\" + documentName;
using (PdfFileSource fileToMerge = new PdfFileSource(File.OpenRead(path)))
{
foreach (PdfPageSource pageToMerge in fileToMerge.Pages)
{
fileWriter.WritePage(pageToMerge);
}
}
}
}
Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo() { FileName = resultFileName, UseShellExecute = true });
}
Currently, a NullReferenceException is thrown because of the incorrect structure.
As a workaround, the exception can be handled using the Handling Exceptions mechanism.
Update:
When importing documents with invalid structure of path construction operators an InvalidGraphicOperandsCountException is thrown which could be handled using the Handling Exceptions mechanism.
PdfFormatProvider provider = new PdfFormatProvider();
provider.ImportSettings.DocumentUnhandledException += this.ImportSettings_DocumentUnhandledException;
private void ImportSettings_DocumentUnhandledException(object sender, DocumentUnhandledExceptionEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Exception is InvalidGraphicOperandsCountException)
{
e.Handled = true;
}
}
I have the following form:
From the screen shot above you can see that the line above 75 is perfectly ok i.e. it doesn't go and intersect with the lines of the 72
but when i perform the following code
According to the PDF specification:
A clipping path operator (W or W*) may appear after the last path construction operator and before the path-painting operator that terminates a path object.
Invalid:
W % clipping path operator 0 0 m % start of the path construction 596 0 l 596 842 l 0 842 l h % end of the path construction n % path-painting operator
0 0 m 596 0 l 596 842 l 0 842 l h W n
Currently (in the invalid cases), the path construction is skipped on import.

A page with a negative value rotation is exported as a blank image.
Workaround: Use only the Enum Rotation values (Rotate0, Rotate90, Rotate180, Rotate270).
Currently, when registering *.otf font file with FontsRepository.RegisterFont method an exception is thrown during the font creation. WORKAROUND: The font file may be converted to TTF format (*.ttf) which is successfully registered. This conversion may be achieved with FontForge by opening the font file and then choosing File -> Generate Fonts -> TrueType -> Generate. More information on FontForge program may be found here: https://fontforge.github.io/en-US/
PdfProcessing: Handle merge of documents containing fields with the same invalid name.
When calling a PDF export in a high-concurrency environment the internal state can get corrupted because it uses a non-thread safe collection internally.
Sample code:
void WriteToPdf(RadFlowDocument document, Stream outputStream) {
PdfFormatProvider pdfWriter = new() {};
pdfWriter.Export(document, outputStream);
}When calling it like this:
Parallel.ForEachAsync(listOfDocuments, (document, _) => {
WriteToPdf(document, Stream.Null);
});An exception may occur:
System.InvalidOperationException: Operations that change non-concurrent collections must have exclusive access. A concurrent update was performed on this collection and corrupted its state. The collection's state is no longer correct.

Realistic scenario where this is also reproduced: Web application that generates PDFs and is called concurrently.
NumberedHierarchical list type has inconsistent indentation after bullets.
The visual fill element is not exported to pdf:
Only the text part is present.
