I use the code below to stamp the bottom of PDFs. How would I go about adding additional padding to a PDF to ensure the text that I am stamping does not overwrite existing text? Many thanks! Ryan --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

public void copyPdfAndStamp(string soruce, string destination, FormattedText[] formattedText, bool setLandscapeToPortrait, position objPosition)

{

 

fatalError = false;

fatalErrorMessage = "";

try

{

/* get height and width */

PdfFileInfo pdfFileInfo = new PdfFileInfo(soruce);

PdfFileStamp stamper = new PdfFileStamp(soruce, destination);

for (int i = 0; i < formattedText.Length; i++)

{

float pageHeight = pdfFileInfo.GetPageHeight(i + 1);

float pageWidth = pdfFileInfo.GetPageWidth(i + 1) / 2;

float textHeight = formattedText[i].TextHeight;

float textWidth = formattedText[i].TextWidth;

Stamp stamp = new Stamp();

stamp.BindLogo(formattedText[i]);

stamp.IsBackground = false;

int[] pages;

pages = new int[1];

pages[0] = i + 1;

stamp.Pages = pages;

switch (objPosition)

{

case position.BOTTOM_LEFT:

stamp.SetOrigin(0, 2);

break;

case position.BOTTOM_RIGHT:

pageWidth = pdfFileInfo.GetPageWidth(i + 1);

stamp.SetOrigin(pageWidth - textWidth, 2);

break;

default:

//stamp.SetOrigin((pageWidth / 2) - (textWidth / 2) + 15, 2);

stamp.SetOrigin((pageWidth / 2) - (textWidth / 2) + 135, 2);

break;

}

stamper.AddStamp(stamp);

}

pdfFileInfo = null;

stamper.Close();

stamper = null;

}

catch (Exception e)

{

fatalError = true;

fatalErrorMessage = e.Message;

}

}

Hi,

Thank you for considering Aspose.

I am not sure that I understand your problem. What I understand is that you want to add some space from the Bottom in the Pdf Page. I don't think that in the existing Pdf it is possible. If it didn't help, then please elaborate your requirements, so that we can better guide you to some solution.

Thanks.

What I want to do is add a disclaimer to the bottom of each PDF. However, I do not want to overwrite existing content on the PDF.

I have no way of dictating if these PDF have content on the bottom since they come from different sources.

For example, I have a PDF that has a page size of 8.5 X 11. I would like to make it 8.5X12.5. This way I can safely add the disclaimer without overwriting existing text. Does this make sense?

Many thanks,

Ryan

Hi,

I think you can use PdfPageEditor class to change the Pdf page size of the resultant Pdf. And then you can add stamp.

If you need more help, please do let us know.

Thanks.

Hi,

I have checked with the following code to increase the Height of the Pdf page. It worked but the problem is that it add the spaces from the top not from the bottom. I will discuss this with the developers and we will let you know as soon as solution is find. Meanwhile you can check the following code, may be it will be of any help.

PdfPageEditor pdf = new PdfPageEditor();

pdf.BindPdf("D:/AsposeTest/pdfPage.pdf");

Aspose.Pdf.Kit.PageSize psize = new Aspose.Pdf.Kit.PageSize();

psize.Height = 1000F;

psize.Width = 600F;

pdf.PageSize = psize;

pdf.Save("D:/AsposeTest/outPdfPage.pdf");

Thanks.

Hi,

This feature can't be support directly now, I will add a Property for Class PdfPageEditor to support this feature. It maybe take 2~3 days.

Thanks.

Hi,

In Class PdfPageEditor, we have added property Alignment and VerticalAlignment to set the alignment ways between the original page and result page.

You can write code like this:

PdfPageEditor pdf = new PdfPageEditor();
pdf.BindPdf(TestPath + "pdfPage.pdf");
Aspose.Pdf.Kit.PageSize psize = new Aspose.Pdf.Kit.PageSize();
psize.Height = 1000F;
psize.Width = 600F;
pdf.PageSize = psize;

//add this two line
pdf.Alignment = AlignmentType.Center;
pdf.VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignmentType.Top;

pdf.Save(TestPath + "outPdfPage.pdf");

Best Regards.
