Hi IM createing a pdf using aspose.word, I get bookmarks as wanted. But on a later point in the work I do a merge, i.e. replace the first page from another pdf document, using aspose.pdf.kit after this the bookmarks are gone, links in the TOC are working as they sould but the pdf bookmarks are lost


Is there a solution to this`?

Hi


the code:

int[] pages = new int[] { 1 };
int location = 0;
try
{
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate
{
Aspose.Pdf.Kit.License lic = new Aspose.Pdf.Kit.License();
lic.SetLicense(“Aspose.Pdf.Kit.lic”);

PdfFileEditor pdfEditor = new PdfFileEditor();
using (Stream firstpageStream = frontPage.OpenBinaryStream())
{
using (Stream contentStream = contentPdf.OpenBinaryStream())
{
using (MemoryStream tempStream = new MemoryStream())
{
using (MemoryStream outStream = new MemoryStream())
{
//create merged PDF document
pdfEditor.SplitToEnd(contentStream, 2, tempStream);
pdfEditor.Insert(tempStream, location, firstpageStream, pages, outStream);
}
}
}
}
});

Dear Aspose team,

We are building a solution for a biotech company which are looking towards submitting applications to the FDA in the near future. Therefore we would appreciate your support asap, or we would have to find another product or solution. At least a note whether this issue can be solved at all, and if so, preferably also a time estimation for when.

This is a critical case for us, and it we would like to have Aspose as part of this as well as for possible future projects with regulatory requirements, since we have found that Aspose matches all requirements until this point.

Best regards.

The Consignit team

Hi,

We have fixed a bug of missing bookmarks in concatenating(merging) PDF files, and the fix will be included in our next release in this week.

But, after further investigating your requirement, we find that it is not easy to keep proper bookmarks after splitting and/or inserting, considering possible combinations of inputs (pdfs with or without bookmarks). And we need more time than my previous estimate, to ultimately resolve the issue. Your patience will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi

I have now tried to implement the new release.

But there seems to be a problem, with the function

pdfFileEditor.SplitToEnd(Stream, int, Stream);

this function will close the outputstream, making it hard to use the output file.

Have there been any changes that affect my code?

Hi Daniel,

I have tested the issue at my end but couldn’t notice the problem. I have tested with Aspose.Pdf.Kit 3.6.0.0. Can you please make sure that you’re using the latest version? Also, try using the following code; I have used this snippet at my end:


int[] pages = new int[] { 1 };

int location = 0;


PdfFileEditor pdfEditor = new PdfFileEditor();

FileStream firstpageStream = new FileStream(“singlepage.pdf”,FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);

FileStream contentStream = new FileStream(“input.pdf”,FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);

MemoryStream tempStream = new MemoryStream();

MemoryStream outStream = new MemoryStream();


//create merged PDF document

pdfEditor.SplitToEnd(contentStream, 2, tempStream);

pdfEditor.Insert(tempStream, location, firstpageStream, pages, outStream);


FileStream output = new FileStream(“output.pdf”, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write);


outStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);

byte[] data = new byte[outStream.Length];

outStream.Read(data, 0, data.Length);

output.Write(data, 0, data.Length);


firstpageStream.Close();

contentStream.Close();

tempStream.Close();

output.Close();


If problem persists then please share a sample project which can reproduce the problem. Also, any other details would be helpful i.e. OS/Culture etc.

We're sorry for the inconvenience.
