Hi,

There is an option to set Size and color ofr the PDF, if you use the
"ITextSharp"


var pageSize = new Rectangle(216, 720);
pageSize.BackgroundColor(new Color(0, 0, 0));
Document document = new Document(pageSize);


Thanks!

Hi,

thanks for your comment. am using below code,

public void ExtractPages(string sourcePdfPath, string outputPdfPath, int startPage, int endPage)
{
PdfReader reader = null;
Document sourceDocument = null;
PdfCopy pdfCopyProvider = null;
PdfImportedPage importedPage = null;
try
{
reader = new PdfReader(sourcePdfPath);
sourceDocument = new Document(reader.GetPageSizeWithRotation(startPage));
pdfCopyProvider = new PdfCopy(sourceDocument,
new System.IO.FileStream(outputPdfPath, System.IO.FileMode.Create));
sourceDocument.Open();
for (int i = startPage; i <= endPage; i++)
{
importedPage = pdfCopyProvider.GetImportedPage(reader, i);
}
sourceDocument.Close();
reader.Close();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}
}

Please give me a suggestion, how to apply background color.

Please include below code,


string inputFile = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop), "Test.pdf");
string outputFile = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop), "Output.pdf");

int Startpage=1;
int endpage=2;

PdfReader reader = null;
Document sourceDocument = null;
PdfCopy pdfCopyProvider = null;
PdfImportedPage importedPage = null;
try
{
// Intialize a new PdfReader instance with the contents of the source Pdf file:
reader = new PdfReader(sourcePdfPath);

// For simplicity, I am assuming all the pages share the same size
// and rotation as the first page:
sourceDocument = new Document(reader.GetPageSizeWithRotation(startPage));

// Initialize an instance of the PdfCopyClass with the source
// document and an output file stream:
pdfCopyProvider = new PdfCopy(sourceDocument,
new System.IO.FileStream(outputPdfPath, System.IO.FileMode.Create));

sourceDocument.Open();

// Walk the specified range and add the page copies to the output file:
for (int i = startPage; i <= endPage; i++)
{
importedPage = pdfCopyProvider.GetImportedPage(reader, i);

}

sourceDocument.Close();
reader.Close();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}

Just replace the Line in your code to these lines,

// sourceDocument = new Document(reader.GetPageSizeWithRotation(startPage));

var pageSize = new Rectangle(216, 720);
pageSize.BackgroundColor(new Color(0, 0, 0));
sourceDocument = new Document(pageSize);
