I use WinHTTP to get PDF and XML. I keep them in memory.

I need to embed XML to PDF.

As so far I find:

https://www.debenu.com/docs/pdf_library_reference/EmbedFile.php

I can create PDF object in memory but can not attach XML String/Stream/Variant to PDF Object directly, I mean in memory without saving XML to file.

Do you have any solution how to do the same without saving XML content to file , I mean How to do all the stuff in memory ?

Hi :)

sorry to disappoint you but...
All embed-functionalities like AddEmbeddedFile, AddFileAttachment, EmbedRelatedFile or EmbedFile as well needs a physical file.
Perhaps you can process a working file made temporary from a string or stream?

It is one which should be added to this library.
As most of features have String/Variant functions.
This one need's to be suplemented.
This is one which is strongly related to GDPR as if you do not save any file then you have less problems with GDPR.

I just before a moment, made a FeatureRequest to dev team.
