Hi ,

I would like to print the pdf i render doublesided , therefore i need to append completly blank/white pages to my existing document. I’m using to function below to check if the document has an even or odd pagecount en when it’s odd i append a blank template .
However the template inherrits the header and footer from the main document, how can i prevent this from happening , because the page needs to be completly white with no header and footer from a previous set of pages.

I’ve added the following files :
- current result (page 24 , 25)
- maindoc template with the header and footer
- blankpage template

kind regards,
Eric

Hello

Thanks for your inquiry. You should just set KeepSourceFormatting and unlink headers/footer before appending documents. Please see the following code:

Document dst = new Document(@"MainDoc.dot");
Document src = new Document(@"blankPage.doc");
// Unlink HeadersFooters
src.FirstSection.HeadersFooters.LinkToPrevious(false);
// Set SectionStart to NewPage
src.Sections[0].PageSetup.SectionStart = SectionStart.NewPage;
dst.AppendDocument(src, ImportFormatMode.KeepSourceFormatting);
dst.Save(@"out.pdf");

Best regards,
