Partial PDF as header?

[damadake]

Is it possible to design a header in Microsoft Word, save that as a PDF then use that PDF and insert it at as a header in another document? I tried designing the header in Word then saving it as an image but the image has loss when inserted as a header.

I can manually create a header by coding each line with the Canvas.DrawString but that is very manual, very trial and error.

Just looking for a better way to design and include headers in other PDF documents.

Any ideas appreciated! Thanks!

Hello,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Please refer to the following sample code to insert the saved header PDF document into another PDF document. If there is any question, please provide the header PDF document which you saved in Microsoft Word, your "another document" as well as your desired output, then we will further look into it and guide you accordingly. You could send them to us via email([email protected]).

Code: Select all

  //load the target PDF file
  PdfDocument targetPdf = new PdfDocument();
  targetPdf.LoadFromFile(@"target.pdf");
  //load the header PDF file
  PdfDocument headerPdf = new PdfDocument();
  headerPdf.LoadFromFile(@"Header.pdf");
  //Create template
  PdfTemplate template = headerPdf.Pages[0].CreateTemplate();

  foreach (PdfPageBase page in targetPdf.Pages)
  {
      //set overlay mode
      page.Canvas.SetTransparency(1f, 1f, PdfBlendMode.Overlay);
      template.Graphics.SetTransparency(0.1f, 0.1f, PdfBlendMode.Overlay);
      page.Canvas.DrawTemplate(template, new PointF(0, 0));
  }
  //save file
  targetPdf.SaveToFile("result.pdf");
