SharpPlot.ReadPdfStream Method

Recover a page of content from a compressed PDF. This is intended for debugging use, where there may have been a problem with Acrobat Reader failing to interpret the document. It is designed to read documents created by SharpPlot and is unlikely to work on other PDFs.

Example

// Recover a compressed page from a PDF for inspection
 string page = SharpPlot.ReadPdfStream(@"c:\temp\xx.pdf",1,true);

Overloads

• public static string ReadPdfStream(string filename,int pageno);
• public static string ReadPdfStream(string filename,int pageno,bool decode);

If the PDF was compressed you must pass the decode flag here to reverse the compression.
