Splitting one page

[phlexss]

Can I use the PDF plugin to split one page into two pages?

I have a PDF which contains one page in landscape orientation and I want to create two new PDF files; one containing the left 50% of the page and one containing the right 50% of the page.

Can this be done and if so; how?

Thanks for any help provided!

Regards,
Ton Trommelen.

Hi,

Yes you can and it is very simple:
1. Open the PDF
2. Use RenderPageToGdPictureImage
3. Create two images of the dimensions and location you want using: https://www.gdpicture.com/guides/gdpicture/GdP ... eArea.html
4. Create two pdfs, for each, call
https://www.gdpicture.com/guides/gdpicture/GdP ... Image.html
with the drawImage parameter to true.
For each pdf, use one of the created images.

I hope this helps.
Best,
Sami

Hi,

Another solution, if you want to keep the initial vector content of the page "as is", is to clone the page and set a crop box on each page. see: https://www.gdpicture.com/guides/gdpicture/web ... geBox.html

Let me know if you need further details.

Best regards,
