Detecting Vector graphics in PDF

Is it possible to detect vector graphics in PDF files? And, if so, can you point me to a code sample that shows this?

@drolle

Would you kindly share a bit more details about the PDF file from which you want to detect vector graphics. Aspose.PDF allows you to extract images from PDF documents. Would you kindly share some sample PDF document with us. We will test the scenario in our environment and address it accordingly.

The same query was made over 2 years ago: Check if PDF page have vector images and again a year ago: Problems with text extraction on vector-based PDFs

Unfortunately, it sounds like “spare us some time” means “wait several years”…

Hi, just following up whether there has been progress on this 2 years on?

@ast3

The complexity level of the ticket is high and a lot of API components need to changed in order to implement this functionality. Due to this factor investigation and resolution of this ticket is taking time. We will surely inform you in this forum thread once the ticket is resolved.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

The issues you have found earlier (filed as PDFNET-48527) have been fixed in Aspose.PDF for .NET 23.5.
