I am new to using iTextSharp and working with Pdf files in general, but I think I'm on the right track.
I iterate through a list of pdf files, convert them to bytes, and push all of the resulting bytes into a byte array. From there I pass the byte array to concatAndAddContent() to merge all of the pdf's into a single large pdf. Currently I'm just getting the last pdf in the list (they seem to be overwriting)
public static byte[] concatAndAddContent(List<byte[]> pdfByteContent)
{
byte[] allBytes;
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
{
Document doc = new Document();
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, ms);
doc.SetPageSize(PageSize.LETTER);
doc.Open();
PdfContentByte cb = writer.DirectContent;
PdfImportedPage page;
PdfReader reader;
foreach (byte[] p in pdfByteContent)
{
reader = new PdfReader(p);
int pages = reader.NumberOfPages;
// loop over document pages
for (int i = 1; i <= pages; i++)
{
doc.SetPageSize(PageSize.LETTER);
doc.NewPage();
page = writer.GetImportedPage(reader, i);
cb.AddTemplate(page, 0, 0);
}
}
doc.Close();
allBytes = ms.GetBuffer();
ms.Flush();
ms.Dispose();
}
return allBytes;
}
Above is the working code that results in a single pdf being created, and the rest of the files are being ignored. Any suggestions
