Hello,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
I am trying to flatten a transparent watermark in a PDF created in code with Adobe document objects and it will not work. I am loading an existing PDF file into an Aspose document object and flattening it as indicated below. There appear to be 3 different ways to flatten and none of them will work.
Dim oPDF As New Aspose.Pdf.Document(sPath & "\" & sFile)
oPDF.Flatten()
oPDF.Pages.Flatten()
oPDF.Form.Flatten()
oPDF.Save(sPath & "\" & sFile)
I also tried creating a watermark with Aspose and it did not flatten either. I am enclosing a PDF with a watermark and a Word file with the watermark pasted into it. This is a simple way to test if the watermark is flattened. If the watermark is not transparent (in this case 25% opaque; gray) in Word (after copy/paste) it is not flattened.
I just need to know if your product can do what I am trying to do. Can it?
