Extract pages
Extract pages
GroupDocs.Merger allows to extract pages from source document. The result is a new document that contains only specified pages from the source document.
Here are the steps to extract document pages:
- Initialize ExtractOptions class with page numbers that should appear in the resultant document;
- Instantiate Merger object with source document path or InputStream;
- Call extractPages method and pass ExtractOptions object to it;
- Call save method specifying file path to save resultant document.
The following code sample demonstrates how to extract document pages by specifying exact page numbers:
String filePath = "c:\sample.pdf";
String filePathOut = "c:\output\result.pdf";
ExtractOptions extractOptions = new ExtractOptions(new int[] { 1, 4 }); // Resultant document will contain pages 1 and 4
Merger merger = new Merger(filePath);
merger.extractPages(extractOptions);
merger.save(filePathOut);
The following code sample demonstrates how to extract document pages by specifying page numbers range:
String filePath = "c:\sample.pdf";
String filePathOut = "c:\output\result.pdf";
ExtractOptions extractOptions = new ExtractOptions(1, 3, RangeMode.EvenPages); // Resultant document will contain page 2
Merger merger = new Merger(filePath);
merger.extractPages(extractOptions);
merger.save(filePathOut);
