What is iPdfWriter?

iPdfWriter is a lightweight implementation that allows modifying a pdf document totally or partially by replacing tags. Currently only works on Windows

The idea is to try to quickly and easily facilitate the task of filling in the 'typical' report file that the client wants to send by email with the data filled in from their erp, vertical application, custom development, etc... to which I am sure that you have faced each other at some point.

I hope it helps someone. 😏

var page1 = new PdfInput
{
    AutoUpdateChanges = true,
    Input = "~/Resources/Sample-03/file-sample-1.pdf"
};

Page 2

var page2 = new PdfInput
{
    AutoUpdateChanges = true,

};

Page 4

var page4 = new PdfInput
{
    AutoUpdateChanges = true,
    Input = "~/Resources/Sample-03/file-sample-4.pdf"
};

Replace Tags

Replace the elements in the pages, for reasons of space I omit this step, We would do it as we have seen in examples 1 and 2.

Create a list of elements to merge

Note that you can set the order in which they will be merged.

var files = new PdfObject
{
    Items = new List<PdfInput>
    {
        new PdfInput {Index = 0, Input = page1},
        new PdfInput {Index = 1, Input = page2},
        new PdfInput {Index = 2, Input = page3},
        new PdfInput {Index = 3, Input = page4}
    }
};

Try to merge into a pdf output result

sync mode

 var mergeResult = files.TryMergeInputs();
 if (!mergeResult.Success)
 {
     // Handle errors                 
 }

async mode

 var mergeResult = await files.TryMergeInputsAsync();
 if (!mergeResult.Success)
 {
     // Handle errors                 
 }

Save merged result to file

var saveResult =  mergeResult.Result.Action(new SaveToFile { OutputPath = "~/Output/Sample03/Sample-03" });

Sample 4 - Shows use global replacements

On many occasions we must make repetitive replacements such as the header or footer, or any other text or image across the entire report.

For these cases we have global replacements.

Basic steps, for more details please see sample04.cs file.

Load pdf pages

Page 1

var page1 = new PdfInput
{
    AutoUpdateChanges = true,
    Input = "~/Resources/Sample-04/file-sample-1.pdf"

var page3 = new PdfInput
{
    AutoUpdateChanges = true,
    Input = "~/Resources/Sample-04/file-sample-3.pdf"
};

Page 4

var page4 = new PdfInput
{
    AutoUpdateChanges = true,
    Input = "~/Resources/Sample-04/file-sample-4.pdf"
};

Define the styles to use

private static readonly Dictionary<string, PdfTextStyle> TextStylesTable = new Dictionary<string, PdfTextStyle>
{
    "Header",
    new PdfTextStyle
    {
        Font =
        {
            Name = "Verdana",
            Size = 8.0f,
            Bold = YesNo.Yes,
            Color = "Gray"
        },
        Content =
        {
            Alignment =
            {
                Vertical = KnownVerticalAlignment.Center,
                Horizontal = KnownHorizontalAlignment.Left
            }
        }
    },
    // Other tag styles here!!
};

Replace Tags

Replace the elements in the pages, for reasons of space I omit this step, We would do it as we have seen in examples 1 and 2.

Create a special object GlobalReplacementsCollection

var globalReplacements = new GlobalReplacementsCollection
{
    new WithTextObject
    {
        Text = "#HEADER-TEXT#",
        NewText = "Report Name - Lorem ipsum dolor",
        Style = TextStylesTable["Header"],
        ReplaceOptions = ReplaceTextOptions.FromLeftMarginToNextElement
    }
};

Create a list of elements to merge

Note that you can set the order in which they will be merged.

var files = new PdfObject(new PdfObjectConfig { GlobalReplacements = globalReplacements })
{
    Items = new List<PdfInput>
    {
        new PdfInput {Index = 0, Input = page1},
        new PdfInput {Index = 1, Input = page2},
        new PdfInput {Index = 2, Input = page3},
        new PdfInput {Index = 3, Input = page4}

Sample 5 - Shows use System tags

Another repetitive task when we create or modify reports is the page numbers to try to speed up this, the SystemTags appear.

Currently we natively have the PageNumberSystemTag and TotalPagesSystemTag objects for this purpose.

Remember that you can create the ones you need, for this you have to implement the ISystemTag interface

Basic steps, for more details please see sample05.cs file.

The test mode represents a special mode for use at development time to see if the changes are adjusted correctly.

During the test mode, both in the case of text and table, it appears with a red outline, in the case of images, it is not drawn and the outline also appears in red.

To enable or disable test mode, the UseTestMode property is available on all repleceable elements.

Where:

Value	Description
YesNo.Yes	Activates the test mode
YesNo.No	Shows the applied change

Sample 7 - Shows the use of save as zip a pdf input (one pdf file)

Sometimes the result of a pdf is too heavy to be able to send it by email or to save it on disk, etc...

iPdfWriter provides the OutputResultConfig.cs class, where you can define the zip file name as well as a property indicating whether it is to be compressed.

If the file name is not specified, a random name will be automatically generated, the sample10.cs file show how it works and the following link sample10.zip shows the output.

Sample 8 - Shows the use of save as zip a merged output (many files)

iPdfWriter provides the class PdfObjectConfig.cs, where you can indicate if the result of merging the different pdf files is going to be compressed (for more information, please see AllowCompression property), you can also indicate a threshold (for more information, please see CompressionThreshold property), that indicates from what size it is going to be compressed, for example, you can indicate that you want the result to be compressed if the result of the merge is greater than 2Mb Basic steps,

For more details please see sample08.cs file.

Create a list of elements to merge

Without CompressionThreshold

var files = new PdfObject(new PdfObjectConfig { Tags = systemTags, GlobalReplacements = globalReplacements, AllowCompression = true })
{
    Items = new List<PdfInput>
    {
        new PdfInput {Index = 0, Input = page1},
        new PdfInput {Index = 1, Input = page2},
        new PdfInput {Index = 2, Input = page3},
        new PdfInput {Index = 3, Input = page4},
    }
};

With CompressionThreshold

var files = new PdfObject(new PdfObjectConfig { Tags = systemTags, GlobalReplacements = globalReplacements, AllowCompression = true, CompressionThreshold = 2 })
{
    Items = new List<PdfInput>
    {
        new PdfInput {Index = 0, Input = page1},
        new PdfInput {Index = 1, Input = page2},
        new PdfInput {Index = 2, Input = page3},
        new PdfInput {Index = 3, Input = page4},
    }
};

Try to merge into a pdf output result

var mergeResult = files.TryMergeInputs();
if (!mergeResult.Success)
{
     // Handle errors
}

Save pdf file result

Without CompressionThreshold

var saveResult = mergeResult.Result.Action(new SaveToFile { OutputPath = "~/Output/Sample08/Sample-08" });
if (!saveResult.Success)
{
     // Handle errors
}

With CompressionThreshold

var saveResult = mergeResult.Result.Action(new SaveToFile { OutputPath = "~/Output/Sample09/Sample-09" });
if (!saveResult.Success)
{
     // Handle errors
}

Output

You can see the result (Without CompressionThreshold) following the following link Sample08.zip or you can see the result (With CompressionThreshold) following the following link Sample10.zip.

Sample 9 - Shows the use of how serialize and deserialize text, image and table styles

Ok, it's nice to be able to use styles, but in the end if we need to modify the color, or the font, etc..., it would be good if it was static!!!

Well, iPdfWriter provides a mechanism to be able to serialize and deserialize any style, supported formats are XML and Json, you can decide this by using a parameter when saving the style.

By default it is saved in XML format.

For more details please see sample12.cs file.

Create styles

PdfImageStyle

var imageStyle = new PdfImageStyle
{
    Name = "ImageStyle",
    Borders =
    {
        new BaseBorder {Color = "Red", Show = YesNo.Yes, Position = KnownBorderPosition.Right},
        new BaseBorder {Color = "Yellow", Show = YesNo.Yes, Position = KnownBorderPosition.Top}
    },
    Content =
    {
        Color = "Blue",
        Alignment =
        {
            Horizontal = KnownHorizontalAlignment.Right
        },
        Properties = new Properties
        {
            new Property {Name = "p001", Value = "v001"},
            new Property {Name = "p002", Value = "v002"}
        }
    }
};

PdfTextStyle

var textStyle = new PdfTextStyle
{
    Name = "NormalStyle",
    Font =
    {
        Bold = YesNo.Yes,
        Italic = YesNo.Yes,
        Color = "Yellow",
        Underline = YesNo.No
    },
    Borders =
    {
        new BaseBorder {Color = "Red", Show = YesNo.Yes, Position = KnownBorderPosition.Right},
        new BaseBorder {Color = "Yellow", Show = YesNo.Yes, Position = KnownBorderPosition.Top}
    },
    Content =
    {
        Color = "Blue",
        Alignment =
        {
            Vertical = KnownVerticalAlignment.Top,
            Horizontal = KnownHorizontalAlignment.Right
        },
        Properties = new Properties
        {
            new Property {Name = "p001", Value = "v001"},
            new Property {Name = "p002", Value = "v002"}
        }
    }
};

PdfTableStyle

var tableStyle = new PdfTableStyle
{
    Name = "NormalStyle",
    Alignment =
    {
        Vertical = KnownVerticalAlignment.Top
    },
    Borders =
    {
        new BaseBorder {Color = "Red", Show = YesNo.Yes, Position = KnownBorderPosition.Right},
        new BaseBorder {Color = "Yellow", Show = YesNo.Yes, Position = KnownBorderPosition.Top}
    },
    Content =
    {
        Color = "Blue",
        Show = YesNo.Yes,
        Properties = new Properties
        {
            new Property {Name = "p001", Value = "v001"},
            new Property {Name = "p002", Value = "v002"}
        }
    }
};
