Hi,

in QuickPDF I think all list are made as starting by 1. So SelectContentStream(0) has ever to fail.

Where the empty contentstream comes, knows only the producer of the PDF (or not).

But why not using CombineContentStreams before?

So you have all pagecontent at once.

What do you want to do with the stream? To manipulate it, you have to be very very familar with the PDF-specifications. Most it's better to let QuickPDF do this job.


Cheers,
Werner

Good idea but I don't think that's it ... GetContentStreamCount() returns 2; SelectContentStream(0) and SelectContentStream(3) both fail; after SelectContentStream(1), GetContentStreamToString() returns a byte array that is 94090 bytes long; after SelectContentStream(2), GetContentStreamToString() returns a byte array that is 0 bytes long.]]> Sat, 07 Apr 2012 20:44:45 +0000 http://www.quickpdf.org/forum/contentstreamcount-seems-screwy_topic2215_post9443.html#9443 <![CDATA[ContentStreamCount seems screwy : Hi Chris!Perhaps it starts with...]]> http://www.quickpdf.org/forum/contentstreamcount-seems-screwy_topic2215_post9441.html#9441 Author: Ingo

Hi Chris!

Perhaps it starts with 0 and not with 1
and you're counting starting with 1?
Only an idea ... ;-)
Your relevant code regarding this issue
would be good to know.

Cheers, Ingo

I've got a PDF document with 2 pages, for each page ContentStreamCount returns '2' but in each case Stream #1 is valid but Stream #2 is zero-length.  Is this expected behavior?  Has QuickPDF created a second content stream in case I want to write to it (or something)?

Thanks,
Chris
