According to the PDF Specification: A redaction annotation (PDF 1.7) identifies content that is intended to be removed from the document.

There are two possible options to workaround this functionality:

1. To iterate the document content and replace the matches which meet certain conditions with an empty string:

   foreach (RadFixedPage page in document.Pages)
   {
   	foreach (ContentElementBase elementBase in page.Content)
   	{
   		if (elementBase is TextFragment textFragment)
   		{
   			if (IsValidEmail(textFragment.Text))
   			{
   				textFragment.Text = string.Empty;
   			}
   		}
   	}
   }

   Note: the desired content could be split into several text fragments and if so a custom parser should be created.
   
2. To iterate the document content and check if the TextFragment position is within a specific RectangleGeometry: 
   

   foreach (RadFixedPage page in document.Pages)
   {
   	foreach (ContentElementBase elementBase in page.Content)
   	{
   		if (elementBase is TextFragment textFragment)
   		{
   			if (IsIntersecting(rectangleGeometry, textFragment))
   			{
   				textFragment.Text = string.Empty;
   			}
   		}
   	}
   }

   Note: it should be taken into account that the text fragment could flow out of the rectangle.

Hello Support,

I am generating pdf using PdfFormatProvider. In this i am passing html data which should be converted into pdf. For that I have written below code.

HtmlFormatProvider htmlFormatProvider = new HtmlFormatProvider();

RadFlowDocument htmlDocument = htmlFormatProvider.Import(htmlContentValue);

 var anotherpara = sectionBody.Blocks.AddParagraph();

editor.MoveToParagraphStart(anotherpara);

editor.InsertDocument(htmlDocument, options);

This works fine and also get pdf with expected value. But I would like to set spacing between two lines which I could not set or its not working. For that I have added below code.

I have also attached screenshot for it. like how its showing on pdf

editor.ParagraphFormatting.AutomaticSpacingAfter.LocalValue = false;
editor.ParagraphFormatting.AutomaticSpacingBefore.LocalValue = false;
editor.ParagraphFormatting.SpacingAfter.LocalValue = 0;
editor.ParagraphFormatting.SpacingBefore.LocalValue = 0;

So could you please let me know fix for it.

Attempting to open a Pdf document containing an unsupported action type results in a NotSupportedActionException being thrown (see PdfProcessing: Add support for actions of type Launch).

Can the behavior be changed to ignore unsupported actions and allow the document to be opened?

By specification, the last line of the file contains only the end-of-file marker, %%EOF. If the file contains many trailing bytes at its end, a NotSupportedException: 'StartXRef keyword cannot be found.', is thrown.

Workaround: Trim any content after the end-of-file marker (see FixInvalidEndOfFile). 

Current implementation relies on valid cross-reference offsets in the PDF documents so that PDF objects are easily found and parsed. However, we can implement a mechanism for repairing documents with invalid cross-reference tables.

The attached project shows how to repair the simplest case of cross-reference table by using RepairDocumentWithSimpleCrossReferenceTable method.

When importing such documents an InvalidDataException (Unknown compression method <method-name>) is thrown.

According to the current .ZIP File Format Specification these methods are 7, 11, 13, 15, and 17.

Compression method:

According to the PDF specification (Adobe® Portable Document Format Version 1.7), the appearance dictionary is optional and it is specifying how the annotation is presented visually on the page.

Exceptions thrown:

InvalidCastException: 'Unable to cast object of type 'Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.Model.Types.PdfNull' to type 'Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.Model.Elements.Annotations.Appearance'.'

NullReferenceException: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'

When the document contains Simple Font with predefined encoding and no ToUnicode mapping the text should be extracted with the following algorithm:

• Map the character code to a character name according to the font’s Differences array.
• Look up the character name in the Adobe Glyph List to obtain the corresponding Unicode value. 
  

Currently, the PdfProcessing library doesn't map the character code properly which leads to wrongly encoded text content.

This API should provide a method for removing all fields and widgets in the document and draw the default widget appearance in place of the removed widgets.

WORKAROUND: Sample implementation for flattening form fields may be seen in the FlattenFormFields method from the attached demo project.
