A requirement my client looks to want is for the user to be able to save the current page into a PDF (which is easy enough looking at your package here) but the page will already have a number of PDFs within it that they would like somehow embedded into this generated PDF.
I'm not sure I am quite with you - PDF creator just allows you to write templates that create PDF files, so anything you can output with Razor you can also output as PDF.
What I mean is that within the web page there are links to various PDFs within it and this page is what the user can generate a PDF from, i.e. all the content in the page.
But, some of the content is already within PDFs so was wondeirng how to handle that and if the PDF creator can embed already existing PDFs or similar.
Load / Import Existing PDFs
Hi There,
A requirement my client looks to want is for the user to be able to save the current page into a PDF (which is easy enough looking at your package here) but the page will already have a number of PDFs within it that they would like somehow embedded into this generated PDF.
Is that possible?
Regards
Gavin

Hi Gavin,
PDF creator isn't a suitable solution for embedding existing PDFs. You'd need to write something bespoke for that.
iTextSharp or similar would help.
Thanks.
