Using DynamicPDF™ Merger v4.0.0 for COM/ActiveX is very straight forward. The object model is intuitive and can be learned quickly. Many tasks can be performed with only a few lines of code and complex operations can be performed easily.
DynamicPDF™ Merger for COM/ActiveX uses DynamicPDF™ Generator for COM/ActiveX for output of the PDF document. The Merger for COM/ActiveX classes primarily handle the import of the PDF documents while relying on Generator for COM/ActiveX for the output. Merger for COM/ActiveX provides four main objects that are used for importing PDF documents.
- Document
- used for Merging PDF documents together. It also has functionality for appending a PDF document or select pages from a PDF document.
- ImportedPage
- is used to retrieve and add a single page to a document. Page elements can then be added to the page and will appear on top of the original page. This is useful for using a pre existing page from a PDF document as a template.
- ImportedPageArea
- is used for placing data from an imported PDF document onto a page. This data can be scaled, rotated, and clipped. It can also be used to place multiple imported pages onto a single page.
- ImportedPageData
- is used for placing data from an imported PDF document onto a page. This data can be scaled, rotated, and clipped. It can also be used to place multiple imported pages onto a single page. This page element defaults to the center of the page and can be offset.
