Processing\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>Along with most developers and technology enthusiasts, we've tracked the progress of AI as it has taken leaps forward over the last few years. The technology has reached an exciting and critical point where it can now provide significant functional value to organizations. While services like OpenAI's \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fplatform.openai.com\u002Foverview\">ChatGPT\u003C\u002Fa> are now available to solve complex problems using the power of Large Language Models (LLMs), this only covers one side of any major problem-solving equation, as these services require input to be provided in the form of text prompts. This leads to a fundamental question, \"Where does the input text come from?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2 id=\"pairing-pdfrest-and-chatgpt-for-enhanced-document-interaction\">Pairing pdfRest and ChatGPT for Enhanced Document Interaction\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>At pdfRest, we're excited to dive into this question and share some creative ideas for pairing a document processing toolkit, like pdfRest, with an LLM AI service, like ChatGPT, to unlock data from digital documents and create powerful synergy between these services. Join us on an inspirational journey below as we take you step-by-step through a functional solution to integrate the pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fquery-pdf\u002F\">Query PDF\u003C\u002Fa> API Tool with OpenAI's ChatGPT API to generate simple, human-readable summaries of complex PDF document metadata and conditional information!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2 id=\"testing-chatgpt-integration\">Testing ChatGPT Integration\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>Before jumping straight into development, we manually passed some input along to ChatGPT's web interface. We weren't initially sure about its ability to read and parse meaning from the JSON format returned by our Query PDF tool. After sending a quick test document to the Query PDF \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf-info\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint, we passed the JSON output over to ChatGPT. The first test looked something like this:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cblockquote>\n\u003Cp>From a standard JSON input, turn the following data into a short summary assuming it describes a PDF Document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fblockquote>\n\u003Cpre style=\"background-color:#0C0C0C;\">{\n    \"tagged\": false,\n    \"image_only\": false,\n    \"title\": \"Character Sheet\",\n    \"subject\": \"What is a subject anyway\",\n    \"author\": \"One of us\",\n    \"producer\": \"Adobe PDF Library 8.0\",\n    \"creator\": \"Adobe InDesign CS3 (5.0.4)\",\n    \"creation_date\": \"2011-06-03T18:22:56\",\n    \"modified_date\": \"2022-12-01T15:30:27\",\n    \"keywords\": \"fantasy, character, people\",\n    \"doc_language\": \"None\",\n    \"page_count\": 2,\n    \"contains_annotations\": true,\n    \"contains_signature\": false,\n    \"pdf_version\": \"1.6.0\",\n    \"file_size\": 684444,\n    \"filename\": \"color_sheet.pdf\",\n}\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\u003Cp>ChatGPT responded with the following:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cblockquote>\n\u003Cp>The JSON input provides details about a PDF document titled \"Character Sheet\" with 2 pages. The document is not tagged, does not contain only images, and has a file size of 684444 bytes. It was authored by \"One of us\" and created using \"Adobe InDesign CS3 (5.0.4)\" on June 3, 2011, at 18:22:56. The most recent modification was on December 1, 2022, at 15:30:27. The document is not limited to a specific language, but its subject is \"What is a subject anyway.\" It is related to keywords such as \"fantasy,\" \"character,\" and \"people.\"\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\nAdditionally, the PDF contains annotations and does not have any digital signatures. The PDF version used is \"1.6.0.\" The filename associated with the PDF is \"color_sheet.pdf,\" and it was produced using \"Adobe PDF Library 8.0.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fblockquote>\n\u003Cp>To our great excitement, it worked! You may notice that along with the JSON output from Query PDF, we also included a prompt to tell ChatGPT what to expect from the input and what to deliver in its output. This \"base\" prompt looked like this:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cblockquote>\n\u003Cp>From a standard JSON input, turn the following data into a short summary assuming it describes a PDF Document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fblockquote>\n\u003Cp>ChatGPT has been trained on so much information that it can recognize structure and infer meaning, even from data formats such as JSON. Because of this, it has no problem synthesizing a coherent, helpful summary of the detailed PDF metadata and conditional info. The value of this capability is clear - it is now possible to automatically abstract away the complexities of parsing JSON output for meaning and construct a summarized paragraph that a general audience can understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3 id=\"proof-of-concept\">Proof of Concept\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>With promising results from our manual testing, we moved on to develop a programmatic proof of concept using both the pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fproducts\u002Fcloud-api\u002F\">Cloud API\u003C\u002Fa> and the OpenAI API. pdfRest is compatible with all major programming languages, and \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fplatform.openai.com\u002Fdocs\u002Flibraries\u002Fpython-library\">OpenAI's documentation\u003C\u002Fa>  provides packages for both Python and JavaScript, so for this example we decided to work with Python.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To get started, we signed up for an API Key with each service:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fgetstarted\u002F\">pdfRest Get Started\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fplatform.openai.com\u002Fsignup?launch\">OpenAI Sign Up\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\n\u003Cp>Then we installed the ChatGPT Python package, ensuring it worked as expected.

As this code is self-documented with clear comments, we won't dive into all of the implementation details here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a look at the ChatGPT component, you'll notice the \"base\" prompt that we referenced earlier. Through trial and error, we found the input that gave us the most consistent formatting results is as follows:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cblockquote>\n\u003Cp>From a standard JSON input, turn the following data into a one paragraph summary assuming it describes a PDF Document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fblockquote>\n\u003Cp>There are several important words and phrases in this prompt.

Next, we specify to output \u003Cstrong>\"a one paragraph summary.\"\u003C\u002Fstrong> Without this, we found that ChatGPT produces inconsistent formatting, sometimes presented as a paragraph and other times a bullet point list. Finally, we specify that ChatGPT \u003Cstrong>can assume the data describes a PDF Document.\u003C\u002Fstrong> We have to remember that the only context ChatGPT has is what we provide, and since it doesn't have the \u003Cem>actual\u003C\u002Fem> PDF document, \u003Cem>we\u003C\u002Fem> need to let it know that's what this JSON is referencing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another notable section of code appears here:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cpre style=\"background-color:#0C0C0C;\">\nif response.ok:\n    response_json = response.json()\n\n    # We can remove the unnecessary fields returned by \u002Fpdf-info, such as inputId and allQueriesProcessed\n    # since they don't describe information about the document, just the request\n    del response_json['allQueriesProcessed'] \n    del response_json['inputId']\n    \n    # Append the query_prompt to the beginning of our JSON output returned from \u002Fpdf-info\n    query_string = query_prompt + str(response_json)\n\n    # Send the query off to ChatGPT using the gpt-3.5-turbo model\n    chat_completion = openai.ChatCompletion.create(model=\"gpt-3.5-turbo\", messages=[{\"role\": \"user\", \"content\": query_string}])\n\n    # Print the output to console on returning successfully\n    print(chat_completion.choices[0].message.content)\n\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\u003Cp>As noted in the code's comments, we remove two fields returned by the Query PDF tool that are unnecessary for file summarization: \u003Ccode>allQueriesProcessed\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>inputId\u003C\u002Fcode>.

to PDF documents. This tutorial will guide you through the process of sending an API call to the Add to PDF endpoint using C#.

To ensure their original work is not freely harvested by AI companies, developers can integrate the TDM Reserve PDF API directly into the CMS upload workflow. Whenever a new PDF is published to the site, the script automatically applies a machine-readable TDM policy, safeguarding the organization's copyright and ensuring compliance with modern digital rights regulations like the EU CDSM Directive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>TDM Reserve PDF with PHP Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-python\">\nrequire 'vendor\u002Fautoload.php'; \u002F\u002F Require the autoload file to load Guzzle HTTP client.\n\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Client; \u002F\u002F Import the Guzzle HTTP client namespace.\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Request; \u002F\u002F Import the PSR-7 Request class.\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Utils; \u002F\u002F Import the PSR-7 Utils class for working with streams.\n\n\u002F\u002F By default, we use the US-based API service.

programmatically. By using this tool, you can encrypt PDF files to ensure that sensitive information is protected and only accessible to individuals with the correct password. For documents that already have a password set, you can also use this tool to change its password.  This tutorial will guide you through the process of sending an API call to Encrypt PDF using C# programming language, which is a common language for backend development and scripting in Windows environments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Imagine you're working on a project with a client who sends you a confidential document, like a new product design or a marketing strategy. You need to access the document to collaborate, but also ensure its security. You can utilize the Encrypt PDF API to set a new password on the document before saving or sharing it further within your team. This two-step process ensures you can collaborate on the document while keeping the information secure, even if someone intercepts it during transmission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Change PDF Password with C# Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-csharp\">using System.Text;\n\nusing (var httpClient = new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri(\"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\") })\n{\n    using (var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Post, \"encrypted-pdf\"))\n    {\n        request.Headers.TryAddWithoutValidation(\"Api-Key\", \"xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\");\n        request.Headers.Accept.Add(new(\"application\u002Fjson\"));\n        var multipartContent = new MultipartFormDataContent();\n\n        var byteArray = File.ReadAllBytes(\"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile.pdf\");\n        var byteAryContent = new ByteArrayContent(byteArray);\n        multipartContent.Add(byteAryContent, \"file\", \"file_name.pdf\");\n        byteAryContent.Headers.TryAddWithoutValidation(\"Content-Type\", \"application\u002Fpdf\");\n\n        var byteArrayOption1 = new ByteArrayContent(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(\"CURRENTPASSWORD\"));\n        multipartContent.Add(byteArrayOption1, \"current_open_password\");\n  \n        var byteArrayOption2 = new ByteArrayContent(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(\"NEWPASSWORD\"));\n        multipartContent.Add(byteArrayOption2, \"new_open_password\");\n\n        request.Content = multipartContent;\n        var response = await httpClient.SendAsync(request);\n\n        var apiResult = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();\n\n        Console.WriteLine(\"API response received.\");\n        Console.WriteLine(apiResult);\n    }\n}\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Reference: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FDotNET\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002Fencrypted-pdf.cs\">pdfRest C# Sample Code\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The code begins by creating an instance of \u003Ccode class=\"language-csharp\">HttpClient\u003C\u002Fcode> with the base address set to the pdfRest API endpoint.

changes are often part of a document's lifecycle rather than a one-time security step. A PDF may use an internal password while it moves through a review process and require a different password before it is delivered to a customer, partner, or archive. The pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fencrypt-pdf\u002F\">Encrypt PDF API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> changes the open password through the \u003Ccode>\u002Fencrypted-pdf\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint when the request supplies both the document's current password and the new password.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>pdfRest applies AES 256-bit encryption using Adobe PDF Library technology. By supplying the current open password and a new one, an application can rotate access credentials as part of a controlled document-delivery or retention workflow without bypassing the document's existing protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a Java-based benefits portal can receive an encrypted enrollment package from an internal system, replace its temporary processing password with a recipient-specific delivery password, and then store the new PDF for secure distribution. The password transition happens as part of the automated workflow, so staff do not need to open and resave sensitive documents manually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This example uses OkHttp to upload the protected PDF as multipart form data and send the current and replacement passwords in the same request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>Java Password-Change Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Add OkHttp, java-dotenv, and JSON-java to the project.

information from PDF documents. This tool allows users to query various properties of a PDF, such as the title, page count, document language, and author, among others. In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to send an API call to the Query PDF endpoint using cURL, a versatile command-line tool used for making HTTP requests. cURL is widely used for its simplicity and broad support across various platforms, making it an ideal choice for interacting with web APIs like pdfRest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Imagine you are working on an application that needs to organize a large number of PDF documents based on their metadata. You might need to categorize them by author, count the number of pages, or filter them by language. Using the Query PDF API, you can programmatically retrieve this information and automate the organization process. This can save a significant amount of time and effort, especially when dealing with a large volume of documents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Query PDF with cURL Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">curl -X POST \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Fpdf-info\" \\\n  -H \"Accept: application\u002Fjson\" \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: multipart\u002Fform-data\" \\\n  -H \"Api-Key: xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\" \\\n  -F \"file=@\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile\" \\\n  -F \"queries=title,page_count,doc_language,author\"\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Reference to the provided code: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FcURL\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002Fpdf-info.sh\">pdf-rest-api-samples\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>This cURL command sends a POST request to the Query PDF endpoint.

Opening the same file in different tools can change column widths, wrapping, and print layout, while nontechnical recipients may not know how the values are meant to be read.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A scheduled sales export illustrates the benefit. A shell job can retrieve regional totals as CSV, convert them to a PDF with a branded header row and right-aligned numeric column, and place the document in a shared reporting folder.

It demonstrates tagged output, per-column width and alignment choices, repeated headers, alternating row fills, and multipart upload from a server application.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert CSV to PDF with Java?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Enterprise Java systems commonly export inventory, transactions, and reconciliation data as CSV because the format is lightweight and widely supported. That portability does not solve the presentation problem when managers or customers need a document with clear columns, page breaks, and labels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Consider a warehouse platform that produces a daily CSV of item numbers, descriptions, and quantities requiring review.

The sample combines a JSON upload with metadata, layout, and style options, then reads the generated PDF resource response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert JSON to PDF in .NET with C#?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>.NET workflow systems often persist approvals, automation outcomes, and external-service responses as JSON. While that representation works well in storage and code, reviewers may need a document that fits naturally into an audit packet or case-management process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, an approval engine may record a completed request with nested approvers, timestamps, conditions, and decision values. C# can generate a hierarchy-formatted PDF that keeps those relationships clear and place it with the associated forms and correspondence. The source JSON remains the system record, while the PDF serves human review.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This approach avoids mapping every possible payload shape into report classes or drawing instructions. The application can use hierarchy mode for business users and source mode for technical reviewers, with consistent page formatting and tags supplied by the same conversion profile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>C# Code Example for Converting JSON to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-csharp\">\u002F*\n * What this sample does:\n * - Converts structured JSON input to PDF through the \u002Fpdf endpoint.\n *\n * Setup (environment):\n * - Set PDFREST_API_KEY=your_api_key_here\n * - Optional: set PDFREST_URL to override the API region.\n *\n * Usage:\n *   dotnet run -- pdf-from-json-multipart \u003CinputFile>\n *\u002F\nusing Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;\nusing System.Net.Http.Headers;\nusing System.Text;\n\nnamespace Samples.EndpointExamples.MultipartPayload;\n\npublic static class PdfFromJson\n{\n    public static async Task Execute(string[] args)\n    {\n        var inputPath = args.Length > 0 ? args[0] : \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Fsample.json\";\n        var apiKey = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(\"PDFREST_API_KEY\");\n        if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(apiKey)) throw new InvalidOperationException(\"Missing PDFREST_API_KEY\");\n        var baseUrl = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(\"PDFREST_URL\") ?? \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\";\n        using var client = new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri(baseUrl) };\n        client.DefaultRequestHeaders.TryAddWithoutValidation(\"Api-Key\", apiKey);\n        client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue(\"application\u002Fjson\"));\n        var options = JObject.Parse(@\"{\"\"title\"\":\"\"Structured Content Sample\"\",\"\"language\"\":\"\"en-US\"\",\"\"enable_tagging\"\":true,\"\"page_setup\"\":{\"\"size\"\":\"\"Letter\"\",\"\"orientation\"\":\"\"portrait\"\",\"\"margin\"\":{\"\"top\"\":36,\"\"right\"\":42,\"\"bottom\"\":36,\"\"left\"\":42}},\"\"style\"\":{\"\"font\"\":\"\"Arial\"\",\"\"heading_font\"\":\"\"Arial\"\",\"\"code_font\"\":\"\"Courier\"\",\"\"text_size\"\":11,\"\"text_color_rgb\"\":[34,34,34],\"\"heading_scale\"\":1.35,\"\"table\"\":{\"\"column_width_weights\"\":[2,3,2],\"\"keep_header_with_first_row\"\":true,\"\"repeat_headers_on_overflow\"\":true,\"\"show_borders\"\":true,\"\"border_width\"\":0.75,\"\"border_color_rgb\"\":[180,188,200],\"\"header_fill_color_rgb\"\":[33,64,98],\"\"header_text_color_rgb\"\":[255,255,255],\"\"row_fill_color_rgb\"\":[250,250,252],\"\"alternate_row_fill_color_rgb\"\":[235,240,246],\"\"cell_padding\"\":{\"\"top\"\":6,\"\"right\"\":8,\"\"bottom\"\":6,\"\"left\"\":8}}},\"\"data_presentation\"\":\"\"hierarchy\"\"}\");\n        using var form = new MultipartFormDataContent();\n        var inputContent = new ByteArrayContent(await File.ReadAllBytesAsync(inputPath));\n        inputContent.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue(\"application\u002Foctet-stream\");\n        form.Add(inputContent, \"file\", Path.GetFileName(inputPath));\n        form.Add(new StringContent(options.ToString()), \"structured_text_options\");\n        var response = await client.PostAsync(\"pdf\", form);\n        var result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();\n        Console.WriteLine(result);\n        if (!response.IsSuccessStatusCode) Environment.ExitCode = 1;\n    }\n}\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Source: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FDotNET\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002Fpdf-from-json.cs\">View the sample on GitHub\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The C# JSON sample uses the framework \u003Ccode>HttpClient\u003C\u002Fcode> APIs and Newtonsoft JSON types for \u003Ccode>structured_text_options\u003C\u002Fcode>.

The request creates tagged output, presents nested JSON as a reader-oriented hierarchy, and applies consistent page and typography settings without requiring a local PDF renderer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert JSON to PDF with cURL?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>JSON is designed for APIs and application state, not for people who need a paginated record. A raw payload may be difficult for support staff, project managers, or auditors to scan, and its appearance depends on whichever editor or browser opens it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A deployment pipeline provides a practical example. After promoting a service, a shell job may save a JSON manifest containing component versions, environment values, and feature flags. The same job can convert that manifest into a hierarchy-formatted PDF and store it with the release evidence, giving reviewers an accessible snapshot without replacing the machine-readable original.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>When exact syntax is more useful than a nested outline, the request can use source presentation instead. That mode validates and pretty-prints the JSON, making cURL suitable for both human-oriented operational records and code-oriented diagnostic artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>cURL Code Example for Converting JSON to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">#!\u002Fbin\u002Fsh\n\n# By default, we use the US-based API service.

Customer-facing and operational workflows often need a stable artifact that can be downloaded, forwarded, and reviewed with other documents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Imagine a SaaS support system investigating a failed provisioning webhook. Its backend can convert the captured JSON into a PDF that groups account fields, status details, and nested error objects hierarchically. The support engineer gains a readable case attachment, while the exact JSON remains available in the event store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The same JavaScript integration can request source mode when braces, arrays, and literal values must remain visible. Because both presentations use \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf\u003C\u002Fcode>, the application can choose according to the audience rather than building separate browser and server rendering paths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>JavaScript Code Example for Converting JSON to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-javascript\">var axios = require(\"axios\");\nvar fs = require(\"fs\");\nvar FormData = require(\"form-data\");\n\n\u002F\u002F By default, we use the US-based API service.

A raw payload is useful to the application but can create unnecessary friction when customer service or a partner needs a readable record.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>An online store might receive a JSON fulfillment response containing packages, tracking events, item arrays, and exception details. PHP can convert the response into a hierarchy-formatted PDF and attach it to an escalated order. Agents can follow the nested information without searching through punctuation or copying values into a separate document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Source presentation remains available when technical support needs normalized JSON syntax for troubleshooting. One PHP integration can therefore produce either a reader-oriented case attachment or a developer-oriented payload record while keeping common styling and metadata.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>PHP Code Example for Converting JSON to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-php\">require 'vendor\u002Fautoload.php';\n\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Client;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Request;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Utils;\n\n\u002F\u002F By default, we use the US-based API service.

Those files are ideal for further processing, but project leads and reviewers may need a PDF that can be annotated, distributed, or retained with other deliverables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A data-science workflow offers a concrete case: after an evaluation run, Python can save model settings, dataset identifiers, metric values, and warning arrays as JSON. Converting that payload into a hierarchy-formatted PDF creates a readable experiment record without discarding the machine-readable source used for reproducibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>When a developer needs to inspect literal JSON instead, source mode validates and pretty-prints the payload. Python automation can choose either presentation for each audience while using the same request to enforce page size, fonts, language metadata, and tagging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Python Code Example for Converting JSON to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-python\">import json\nimport os\nimport requests\n\n# By default, we use the US-based API service.

It combines the source, an uploaded image, and layout settings in a multipart request suitable for a .NET document workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert Markdown to PDF with C#?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>.NET teams commonly author runbooks, change notes, and internal standards in Markdown because it fits naturally with Git-based review. Formal approval processes, external distribution, and records management often require a PDF version with predictable pages and presentation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a release-management portal can collect approved Markdown change notes, a compatibility matrix, and a product diagram, then generate a PDF for the change-approval package. Reviewers get a stable artifact with styled tables and visible document structure, while developers avoid manually copying the content into Word or rebuilding it in a second template.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The API makes the export repeatable from the same source of truth. C# code can specify margins, fonts, colors, tagging, and image alternate text without automating desktop software or calculating where each Markdown element belongs on the page.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>C# Code Example for Converting Markdown to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-csharp\">\u002F*\n * What this sample does:\n * - Converts structured Markdown input to PDF through the \u002Fpdf endpoint.\n *\n * Setup (environment):\n * - Set PDFREST_API_KEY=your_api_key_here\n * - Optional: set PDFREST_URL to override the API region.\n *\n * Usage:\n *   dotnet run -- pdf-from-markdown-multipart \u003CinputFile> \u003CimageFile>\n *\u002F\nusing Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;\nusing System.Net.Http.Headers;\nusing System.Text;\n\nnamespace Samples.EndpointExamples.MultipartPayload;\n\npublic static class PdfFromMarkdown\n{\n    public static async Task Execute(string[] args)\n    {\n        var inputPath = args.Length > 0 ? args[0] : \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Fsample.md\";\n        var imagePath = args.Length > 1 ? args[1] : \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Flogo.png\";\n        var apiKey = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(\"PDFREST_API_KEY\");\n        if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(apiKey)) throw new InvalidOperationException(\"Missing PDFREST_API_KEY\");\n        var baseUrl = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(\"PDFREST_URL\") ?? \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\";\n        using var client = new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri(baseUrl) };\n        client.DefaultRequestHeaders.TryAddWithoutValidation(\"Api-Key\", apiKey);\n        client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue(\"application\u002Fjson\"));\n        var options = JObject.Parse(@\"{\"\"title\"\":\"\"Structured Content Sample\"\",\"\"language\"\":\"\"en-US\"\",\"\"enable_tagging\"\":true,\"\"page_setup\"\":{\"\"size\"\":\"\"Letter\"\",\"\"orientation\"\":\"\"portrait\"\",\"\"margin\"\":{\"\"top\"\":36,\"\"right\"\":42,\"\"bottom\"\":36,\"\"left\"\":42}},\"\"style\"\":{\"\"font\"\":\"\"Arial\"\",\"\"heading_font\"\":\"\"Arial\"\",\"\"code_font\"\":\"\"Courier\"\",\"\"text_size\"\":11,\"\"text_color_rgb\"\":[34,34,34],\"\"heading_scale\"\":1.35,\"\"table\"\":{\"\"column_width_weights\"\":[2,3,2],\"\"keep_header_with_first_row\"\":true,\"\"repeat_headers_on_overflow\"\":true,\"\"show_borders\"\":true,\"\"border_width\"\":0.75,\"\"border_color_rgb\"\":[180,188,200],\"\"header_fill_color_rgb\"\":[33,64,98],\"\"header_text_color_rgb\"\":[255,255,255],\"\"row_fill_color_rgb\"\":[250,250,252],\"\"alternate_row_fill_color_rgb\"\":[235,240,246],\"\"cell_padding\"\":{\"\"top\"\":6,\"\"right\"\":8,\"\"bottom\"\":6,\"\"left\"\":8}}},\"\"markdown\"\":{\"\"image_alt_text\"\":{\"\"sample-logo\"\":\"\"Sample logo\"\"},\"\"missing_image_alt_text\"\":\"\"fail\"\",\"\"image_sources\"\":{\"\"sample-logo\"\":{\"\"upload_index\"\":0}}}}\");\n        using var form = new MultipartFormDataContent();\n        var inputContent = new ByteArrayContent(await File.ReadAllBytesAsync(inputPath));\n        inputContent.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue(\"application\u002Foctet-stream\");\n        form.Add(inputContent, \"file\", Path.GetFileName(inputPath));\n        var imageContent = new ByteArrayContent(await File.ReadAllBytesAsync(imagePath));\n        imageContent.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue(\"image\u002Fpng\");\n        form.Add(imageContent, \"image_files\", Path.GetFileName(imagePath));\n        form.Add(new StringContent(options.ToString()), \"structured_text_options\");\n        var response = await client.PostAsync(\"pdf\", form);\n        var result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();\n        Console.WriteLine(result);\n        if (!response.IsSuccessStatusCode) Environment.ExitCode = 1;\n    }\n}\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Source: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FDotNET\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002Fpdf-from-markdown.cs\">View the sample on GitHub\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The \u003Ccode>Execute\u003C\u002Fcode> method accepts command-line arguments for the Markdown source and image file.

The request applies page and table styling, creates tagged output, and maps an uploaded image into the Markdown document in one multipart API call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert Markdown to PDF with cURL?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Markdown is efficient for writing release notes, technical instructions, and project documentation, but a \u003Ccode>.md\u003C\u002Fcode> file is not always appropriate for customers, approvers, or document archives. PDF gives that same content a stable page layout while retaining headings, lists, links, code blocks, tables, and images.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A CI release job offers a practical example. After a build creates Markdown release notes containing a compatibility table and product image, a shell step can submit those assets to pdfRest and save the generated PDF with the release artifacts. Product managers and customers receive a polished document, while engineers continue maintaining the source in version control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The image mapping and alternate-text settings make the workflow suitable for more than text-only conversion. Combined with configurable typography, table colors, margins, language metadata, and tags, cURL can turn an existing Markdown publishing step into repeatable PDF generation without adding a browser-based renderer to the build environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>cURL Code Example for Converting Markdown to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">#!\u002Fbin\u002Fsh\n\n# By default, we use the US-based API service.

\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fconvert-to-pdf\u002F\">pdfRest Convert to PDF API Tool\u003C\u002Fa>. It demonstrates multipart upload, document and table styling, and explicit image mapping for a complete server-side conversion workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert Markdown to PDF with Java?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Enterprise applications often store procedures and product content as Markdown because it is easy to review, diff, and generate. The people consuming that material may instead need a paginated PDF for onboarding, deployment, approval, or offline access.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Consider a Java-based knowledge platform that maintains installation guides in Markdown. When a customer downloads a guide, the application can submit the article, its logo, and its configuration table to pdfRest. The resulting PDF preserves the document hierarchy, styles the table consistently, and embeds the supplied image without requiring the platform to maintain a separate PDF template.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Using one structured conversion request also reduces drift between online and downloadable documentation. Java services can control page geometry and visual presentation while retaining Markdown’s authoring advantages, and tagged output provides logical structure for assistive technology and downstream document processing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Java Code Example for Converting Markdown to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-java\">import io.github.cdimascio.dotenv.Dotenv;\nimport java.io.File;\nimport java.io.IOException;\nimport java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;\nimport okhttp3.*;\nimport org.json.JSONObject;\n\npublic class PdfFromMarkdown {\n  private static final String API_URL = \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\";\n  private static final String DEFAULT_API_KEY = \"xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\";\n\n  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {\n    File inputFile = new File(args.length > 0 ? args[0] : \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Fsample.md\");\n    File imageFile = new File(args.length > 1 ? args[1] : \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Flogo.png\");\n    Dotenv dotenv = Dotenv.configure().ignoreIfMalformed().ignoreIfMissing().load();\n    String apiKey = dotenv.get(\"PDFREST_API_KEY\", DEFAULT_API_KEY);\n    JSONObject options =\n        new JSONObject(\n            \"{\\\"title\\\":\\\"Structured Content Sample\\\",\\\"language\\\":\\\"en-US\\\",\\\"enable_tagging\\\":true,\\\"page_setup\\\":{\\\"size\\\":\\\"Letter\\\",\\\"orientation\\\":\\\"portrait\\\",\\\"margin\\\":{\\\"top\\\":36,\\\"right\\\":42,\\\"bottom\\\":36,\\\"left\\\":42}},\\\"style\\\":{\\\"font\\\":\\\"Arial\\\",\\\"heading_font\\\":\\\"Arial\\\",\\\"code_font\\\":\\\"Courier\\\",\\\"text_size\\\":11,\\\"text_color_rgb\\\":[34,34,34],\\\"heading_scale\\\":1.35,\\\"table\\\":{\\\"column_width_weights\\\":[2,3,2],\\\"keep_header_with_first_row\\\":true,\\\"repeat_headers_on_overflow\\\":true,\\\"show_borders\\\":true,\\\"border_width\\\":0.75,\\\"border_color_rgb\\\":[180,188,200],\\\"header_fill_color_rgb\\\":[33,64,98],\\\"header_text_color_rgb\\\":[255,255,255],\\\"row_fill_color_rgb\\\":[250,250,252],\\\"alternate_row_fill_color_rgb\\\":[235,240,246],\\\"cell_padding\\\":{\\\"top\\\":6,\\\"right\\\":8,\\\"bottom\\\":6,\\\"left\\\":8}}},\\\"markdown\\\":{\\\"image_alt_text\\\":{\\\"sample-logo\\\":\\\"Sample logo\\\"},\\\"missing_image_alt_text\\\":\\\"fail\\\",\\\"image_sources\\\":{\\\"sample-logo\\\":{\\\"upload_index\\\":0}}}}\");\n    MultipartBody.Builder form =\n        new MultipartBody.Builder()\n            .setType(MultipartBody.FORM)\n            .addFormDataPart(\n                \"file\",\n                inputFile.getName(),\n                RequestBody.create(inputFile, MediaType.parse(\"application\u002Foctet-stream\")))\n            .addFormDataPart(\n                \"image_files\",\n                imageFile.getName(),\n                RequestBody.create(imageFile, MediaType.parse(\"image\u002Fpng\")))\n            .addFormDataPart(\"structured_text_options\", options.toString());\n    Request request =\n        new Request.Builder()\n            .url(API_URL + \"\u002Fpdf\")\n            .header(\"Api-Key\", apiKey)\n            .post(form.build())\n            .build();\n    send(request);\n  }\n\n  private static void send(Request request) throws IOException {\n    OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient.Builder().readTimeout(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS).build();\n    try (Response response = client.newCall(request).execute()) {\n      System.out.println(\"Result code \" + response.code());\n      if (response.body() != null) System.out.println(response.body().string());\n      if (!response.isSuccessful()) System.exit(1);\n    }\n  }\n}\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Source: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FJava\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002FPdfFromMarkdown.java\">View the sample on GitHub\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The code imports \u003Ccode>Dotenv\u003C\u002Fcode> to load the API key from environment configuration, \u003Ccode>OkHttp\u003C\u002Fcode> to make the HTTP request, and \u003Ccode>JSONObject\u003C\u002Fcode> to construct the structured-text conversion options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-java\">File inputFile = new File(args.length > 0 ? args[0] : \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Fsample.md\");\nFile imageFile = new File(args.length > 1 ? args[1] : \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Flogo.png\");\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>These lines identify the Markdown source file and local image file.

to Convert Markdown to PDF with JavaScript in NodeJS","how-to-convert-markdown-to-pdf-with-javascript-in-nodejs","\n\u003C!--kg-card-begin: html-->\n\u003Cp>This JavaScript tutorial uses NodeJS to send Markdown, an image, and structured conversion options to the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fconvert-to-pdf\u002F\">pdfRest Convert to PDF API Tool\u003C\u002Fa>. The response is a tagged PDF with customized typography, page setup, and table presentation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert Markdown to PDF with JavaScript?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Web applications frequently accept Markdown for project updates, user-authored documentation, and generated reports. Browser rendering works inside the product, but users still ask for a PDF they can download, circulate, or include with records outside the application.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A project-management service might assemble a quarterly status report in Markdown with milestone lists, a risk table, and an uploaded progress chart. Its NodeJS backend can map that chart to the image reference in the source and create a PDF export on demand. Stakeholders receive a coherent document rather than a screenshot or an unstyled print view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This approach allows the same Markdown content model to serve both web and document channels. The conversion profile handles page boundaries, repeated table headers, colors, fonts, image alternate text, and tagging, leaving the JavaScript application responsible for the content rather than PDF layout calculations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>JavaScript Code Example for Converting Markdown to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-javascript\">var axios = require(\"axios\");\nvar fs = require(\"fs\");\nvar FormData = require(\"form-data\");\n\n\u002F\u002F By default, we use the US-based API service.

href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fconvert-to-pdf\u002F\">pdfRest Convert to PDF API Tool\u003C\u002Fa>. The sample sends the article, a referenced image, and structured styling options together so the downloadable document matches the intended content.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert Markdown to PDF with PHP?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Content portals and support sites often store articles as Markdown because editors can maintain headings, links, procedures, and code examples without working in raw HTML. Customers may still need a PDF for offline troubleshooting, field work, or sharing with someone who cannot access the portal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Imagine a PHP knowledge base containing a repair procedure with ordered steps, a parts table, command examples, and an annotated image. When a technician requests a download, the application can convert the existing Markdown into a formatted PDF and map the uploaded illustration to its source reference. The team maintains one article instead of a web version and a separately edited manual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Configurable table fills, borders, padding, typography, and page margins help the export look intentional rather than like a browser printout. Tags and image alternate text add useful document semantics, while the PHP application continues using its established Markdown publishing workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>PHP Code Example for Converting Markdown to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-php\">require 'vendor\u002Fautoload.php';\n\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Client;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Request;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Utils;\n\n\u002F\u002F By default, we use the US-based API service.

It uploads the source and an image, applies structured page and table settings, and requests tagged output for a complete automated report workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert Markdown to PDF with Python?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Python programs regularly produce Markdown summaries from analytics, testing, and data-processing jobs. Markdown is convenient for assembling headings, findings, code, and tables, but decision-makers often want a PDF that can be reviewed, annotated, and distributed as a finished report.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A model-evaluation pipeline, for instance, can write its metrics and observations to Markdown, include a comparison table, and save a generated chart. A Python step can submit the report and chart to pdfRest, map the image reference, and return a styled PDF for the project record. Analysts keep an easy-to-generate source format while stakeholders receive a familiar document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The request also demonstrates how automation can enforce consistent margins, fonts, colors, table behavior, language metadata, alternate text, and tagging across every run. That consistency is difficult to achieve with ad hoc Markdown print commands and requires no separate HTML conversion stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Python Code Example for Converting Markdown to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-python\">import json\nimport os\nimport requests\n\n# By default, we use the US-based API service.

Choosing the intended preset or custom ICC profile gives pdfRest a controlled production target instead of leaving color conversion to an unspecified output device.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Ccode>data.getHeaders()\u003C\u002Fcode> supplies the multipart boundary required by the request. The PDF stream prevents Node.js from loading the complete input into memory, and \u003Ccode>maxBodyLength: Infinity\u003C\u002Fcode> avoids Axios rejecting the request because of its client-side body-size default.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Continue the Print Workflow\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Check the response status and expected output fields before saving or forwarding the PDF. For production use, add a timeout, distinguish connection failures from API validation errors, and prevent documents or credentials from being written to shared logs. The converted PDF can then move directly into the print provider's normal preflight, proofing, or PDF\u002FX preparation process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The response resource ID can be passed directly to another pdfRest operation, such as converting the result to PDF\u002FX, without an intermediate download and upload. This makes color conversion one controlled stage in a larger automated print-preparation pipeline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>When the source PDF is already uploaded, use a JSON payload with its resource ID.

This gives an integration that requires BMP a direct API path from a multipage PDF to the image files its downstream system accepts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>BMP is useful when a downstream system explicitly expects a straightforward bitmap format, but the files can be much larger than compressed JPEG or PNG output. For browser previews, email, or general web delivery, another supported image format may be more efficient. Choosing BMP should reflect the receiving system's requirement rather than an assumption that all raster formats behave the same way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a Node.js document-inspection service may need to send a specific PDF page to an established Windows imaging component that accepts BMP input. The service can render only the relevant page, store the returned image in the component's work queue, and avoid installing a local PDF renderer in every application environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This example uses Axios, FormData, and a file stream to upload the PDF, select all pages, and request RGB BMP output at 300 DPI.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>JavaScript PDF-to-BMP Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Install \u003Ccode>axios\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>form-data\u003C\u002Fcode>, then replace the API-key and source-path placeholders.

API Tool is a powerful and flexible solution for converting PDF documents into image formats like PNG, JPEG, and others. By leveraging this tool, developers can easily integrate PDF to image conversion capabilities into their PHP applications. This tutorial will demonstrate how to send an API call to the PDF to Images endpoint using PHP, specifically focusing on converting a PDF to PNG.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>An example of why a user might use PDF to Images is for generating thumbnails or previews of PDF documents. For instance, a document management system might need to display a preview of each page of a PDF document to its users. By converting the PDF pages into images, the system can provide a quick and visually appealing way for users to browse through documents without needing to open the entire PDF file.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>PDF to PNG with PHP Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-python\">\nrequire 'vendor\u002Fautoload.php'; \u002F\u002F Require the autoload file to load Guzzle HTTP client.\n\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Client; \u002F\u002F Import the Guzzle HTTP client namespace.\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Request; \u002F\u002F Import the PSR-7 Request class.\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Utils; \u002F\u002F Import the PSR-7 Utils class for working with streams.\n\n$client = new Client(); \u002F\u002F Create a new instance of the Guzzle HTTP client.\n\n$headers = [\n  'Api-Key' =--> 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' \u002F\u002F Set the API key in the headers for authentication.\n];\n\n$options = [\n  'multipart' => [\n    [\n      'name' => 'file', \u002F\u002F Specify the field name for the file.\n      'contents' => Utils::tryFopen('\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile', 'r'), \u002F\u002F Open the file specified by the '\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile' for reading.\n      'filename' => '\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile', \u002F\u002F Set the filename for the file to be converted, in this case, '\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile'.\n      'headers' => [\n        'Content-Type' => '\u003Ccontent-type header=\"\">' \u002F\u002F Set the Content-Type header for the file.\n      ]\n    ],\n    [\n      'name' => 'pages', \u002F\u002F Specify the field name for the pages option.\n      'contents' => '1-last' \u002F\u002F Set the value for the pages option (in this case, '1-last').\n    ],\n    [\n      'name' => 'resolution', \u002F\u002F Specify the field name for the resolution option.\n      'contents' => '300' \u002F\u002F Set the value for the resolution option (in this case, '300').\n    ],\n    [\n      'name' => 'color_model', \u002F\u002F Specify the field name for the color_model option.\n      'contents' => 'rgb' \u002F\u002F Set the value for the color_model option (in this case, 'rgb').\n    ],\n    [\n      'name' => 'output', \u002F\u002F Specify the field name for the output option.\n      'contents' => 'pdfrest_png' \u002F\u002F Set the value for the output option (in this case, 'pdfrest_png').\n    ]\n  ]\n];\n\n$request = new Request('POST', 'https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Fpng', $headers); \u002F\u002F Create a new HTTP POST request with the API endpoint and headers.\n\n$res = $client->sendAsync($request, $options)->wait(); \u002F\u002F Send the asynchronous request and wait for the response.\n\necho $res->getBody(); \u002F\u002F Output the response body, which contains the converted PNG image.\n\n\u003C\u002Fcontent-type>\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Source of the provided code: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FPHP\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002Fpng.php\">GitHub\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-python\">require 'vendor\u002Fautoload.php';\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Client;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Request;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Utils;\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>This section imports the necessary libraries.

It sends the source with structured settings for preserved lines, tagged output, page geometry, and text appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert Plain Text to PDF in .NET with C#?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Many .NET environments integrate with manufacturing, financial, or mainframe systems that still emit fixed-format text. Those reports may contain valuable operational history, but distributing them as loose text files makes printing, review, and records retention inconsistent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A manufacturing application, for example, may receive a production-run summary listing machine identifiers, quantities, exceptions, and operator messages. Converting the export to PDF gives supervisors a stable report for the run record. Preserved line handling keeps each entry in order, and choosing a monospaced font can maintain fixed-width alignment when the source depends on columns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>C# applications can switch to reflow mode for notes and narrative summaries that should wrap naturally across the page. The same endpoint then handles two distinct text layouts while applying repeatable margins, metadata, typography, and document structure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>C# Code Example for Converting Plain Text to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-csharp\">\u002F*\n * What this sample does:\n * - Converts plain text input to PDF through the \u002Fpdf endpoint.\n *\n * Setup (environment):\n * - Set PDFREST_API_KEY=your_api_key_here\n * - Optional: set PDFREST_URL to override the API region.\n *\n * Usage:\n *   dotnet run -- pdf-from-text-multipart \u003CinputFile>\n *\u002F\nusing Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;\nusing System.Net.Http.Headers;\nusing System.Text;\n\nnamespace Samples.EndpointExamples.MultipartPayload;\n\npublic static class PdfFromText\n{\n    public static async Task Execute(string[] args)\n    {\n        var inputPath = args.Length > 0 ? args[0] : \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Fsample.txt\";\n        var apiKey = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(\"PDFREST_API_KEY\");\n        if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(apiKey)) throw new InvalidOperationException(\"Missing PDFREST_API_KEY\");\n        var baseUrl = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(\"PDFREST_URL\") ?? \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\";\n        using var client = new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri(baseUrl) };\n        client.DefaultRequestHeaders.TryAddWithoutValidation(\"Api-Key\", apiKey);\n        client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue(\"application\u002Fjson\"));\n        var options = JObject.Parse(@\"{\"\"title\"\":\"\"Structured Content Sample\"\",\"\"language\"\":\"\"en-US\"\",\"\"enable_tagging\"\":true,\"\"page_setup\"\":{\"\"size\"\":\"\"Letter\"\",\"\"orientation\"\":\"\"portrait\"\",\"\"margin\"\":{\"\"top\"\":36,\"\"right\"\":42,\"\"bottom\"\":36,\"\"left\"\":42}},\"\"style\"\":{\"\"font\"\":\"\"Arial\"\",\"\"heading_font\"\":\"\"Arial\"\",\"\"code_font\"\":\"\"Courier\"\",\"\"text_size\"\":11,\"\"text_color_rgb\"\":[34,34,34],\"\"heading_scale\"\":1.35,\"\"table\"\":{\"\"column_width_weights\"\":[2,3,2],\"\"keep_header_with_first_row\"\":true,\"\"repeat_headers_on_overflow\"\":true,\"\"show_borders\"\":true,\"\"border_width\"\":0.75,\"\"border_color_rgb\"\":[180,188,200],\"\"header_fill_color_rgb\"\":[33,64,98],\"\"header_text_color_rgb\"\":[255,255,255],\"\"row_fill_color_rgb\"\":[250,250,252],\"\"alternate_row_fill_color_rgb\"\":[235,240,246],\"\"cell_padding\"\":{\"\"top\"\":6,\"\"right\"\":8,\"\"bottom\"\":6,\"\"left\"\":8}}},\"\"plain_text\"\":{\"\"line_handling\"\":\"\"preserve\"\"}}\");\n        using var form = new MultipartFormDataContent();\n        var inputContent = new ByteArrayContent(await File.ReadAllBytesAsync(inputPath));\n        inputContent.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue(\"application\u002Foctet-stream\");\n        form.Add(inputContent, \"file\", Path.GetFileName(inputPath));\n        form.Add(new StringContent(options.ToString()), \"structured_text_options\");\n        var response = await client.PostAsync(\"pdf\", form);\n        var result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();\n        Console.WriteLine(result);\n        if (!response.IsSuccessStatusCode) Environment.ExitCode = 1;\n    }\n}\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Source: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FDotNET\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002Fpdf-from-text.cs\">View the sample on GitHub\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The C# Plain Text sample uses the framework \u003Ccode>HttpClient\u003C\u002Fcode> APIs and Newtonsoft JSON types for \u003Ccode>structured_text_options\u003C\u002Fcode>.

PDF makes that content easier to review, attach to a record, and open without depending on a particular text editor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>An operations script might collect the relevant portion of a service log after an outage and add it to an incident-management case. By calling pdfRest with \u003Ccode>line_handling: \"preserve\"\u003C\u002Fcode>, the script can retain timestamps, line breaks, and intentional spacing in a paginated PDF. The response becomes a portable diagnostic artifact that support and engineering can reference together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For narrative notes rather than logs, the same workflow can use \u003Ccode>reflow\u003C\u002Fcode> so source lines combine into readable paragraphs.

The sample selects preserved line handling so the source layout remains visible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert Plain Text to PDF with Java?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Java batch applications and transaction systems still produce text summaries, spool-style reports, and reconciliation output. These files are efficient for systems to create, yet they can be awkward to distribute to reviewers who expect a paginated document with reliable rendering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A settlement service provides a useful example: after processing a nightly batch, it may write account totals, warnings, and control values to a text report. The Java application can convert that report to PDF and place it alongside the batch record for finance review. Preserved lines maintain the report’s sequence, and a monospaced body font can be selected when aligned text columns are significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>When the source contains prose instead of layout-sensitive rows, reflow mode produces more natural paragraphs. The conversion API lets the same Java service choose that behavior per request while setting document language, title, margins, fonts, and tags centrally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Java Code Example for Converting Plain Text to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-java\">import io.github.cdimascio.dotenv.Dotenv;\nimport java.io.File;\nimport java.io.IOException;\nimport java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;\nimport okhttp3.*;\nimport org.json.JSONObject;\n\npublic class PdfFromText {\n  private static final String API_URL = \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\";\n  private static final String DEFAULT_API_KEY = \"xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\";\n\n  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {\n    File inputFile = new File(args.length > 0 ? args[0] : \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Fsample.txt\");\n    Dotenv dotenv = Dotenv.configure().ignoreIfMalformed().ignoreIfMissing().load();\n    String apiKey = dotenv.get(\"PDFREST_API_KEY\", DEFAULT_API_KEY);\n    JSONObject options =\n        new JSONObject(\n            \"{\\\"title\\\":\\\"Structured Content Sample\\\",\\\"language\\\":\\\"en-US\\\",\\\"enable_tagging\\\":true,\\\"page_setup\\\":{\\\"size\\\":\\\"Letter\\\",\\\"orientation\\\":\\\"portrait\\\",\\\"margin\\\":{\\\"top\\\":36,\\\"right\\\":42,\\\"bottom\\\":36,\\\"left\\\":42}},\\\"style\\\":{\\\"font\\\":\\\"Arial\\\",\\\"heading_font\\\":\\\"Arial\\\",\\\"code_font\\\":\\\"Courier\\\",\\\"text_size\\\":11,\\\"text_color_rgb\\\":[34,34,34],\\\"heading_scale\\\":1.35,\\\"table\\\":{\\\"column_width_weights\\\":[2,3,2],\\\"keep_header_with_first_row\\\":true,\\\"repeat_headers_on_overflow\\\":true,\\\"show_borders\\\":true,\\\"border_width\\\":0.75,\\\"border_color_rgb\\\":[180,188,200],\\\"header_fill_color_rgb\\\":[33,64,98],\\\"header_text_color_rgb\\\":[255,255,255],\\\"row_fill_color_rgb\\\":[250,250,252],\\\"alternate_row_fill_color_rgb\\\":[235,240,246],\\\"cell_padding\\\":{\\\"top\\\":6,\\\"right\\\":8,\\\"bottom\\\":6,\\\"left\\\":8}}},\\\"plain_text\\\":{\\\"line_handling\\\":\\\"preserve\\\"}}\");\n    MultipartBody.Builder form =\n        new MultipartBody.Builder()\n            .setType(MultipartBody.FORM)\n            .addFormDataPart(\n                \"file\",\n                inputFile.getName(),\n                RequestBody.create(inputFile, MediaType.parse(\"application\u002Foctet-stream\")))\n            .addFormDataPart(\"structured_text_options\", options.toString());\n    Request request =\n        new Request.Builder()\n            .url(API_URL + \"\u002Fpdf\")\n            .header(\"Api-Key\", apiKey)\n            .post(form.build())\n            .build();\n    send(request);\n  }\n\n  private static void send(Request request) throws IOException {\n    OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient.Builder().readTimeout(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS).build();\n    try (Response response = client.newCall(request).execute()) {\n      System.out.println(\"Result code \" + response.code());\n      if (response.body() != null) System.out.println(response.body().string());\n      if (!response.isSuccessful()) System.exit(1);\n    }\n  }\n}\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Source: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FJava\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002FPdfFromText.java\">View the sample on GitHub\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>This Java Plain Text example combines OkHttp for transport, \u003Ccode>org.json\u003C\u002Fcode> for conversion settings, and dotenv support for repository configuration.

Once that information needs to leave the application, a raw \u003Ccode>.txt\u003C\u002Fcode> download may feel unfinished and can be difficult to include in a broader document workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Consider a customer-support platform that exports a conversation transcript containing timestamps, agent names, and message boundaries. Its NodeJS backend can preserve those lines while converting the transcript into a PDF for escalation or customer delivery. The result opens consistently and can be retained with screenshots, forms, and other PDF case materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For automatically generated status narratives, the application can select reflow mode and allow the text to wrap as paragraphs instead. JavaScript code can therefore support both transcript fidelity and reader-friendly prose without implementing pagination or font layout itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>JavaScript Code Example for Converting Plain Text to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-javascript\">var axios = require(\"axios\");\nvar fs = require(\"fs\");\nvar FormData = require(\"form-data\");\n\n\u002F\u002F By default, we use the US-based API service.

The sample retains source line breaks and supplies the page, font, language, and tagging options needed for consistent PDF output.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert Plain Text to PDF with PHP?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>PHP applications frequently build case notes, order summaries, and form-derived records as simple text. Plain text is easy to generate, but users may need a formal download that can be emailed, annotated, printed, or stored with other customer documents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A case-management portal illustrates the need: after an agent completes an intake workflow, PHP can assemble the submitted answers and system notes into a text summary. Converting that file to PDF creates a durable case artifact with a title, controlled margins, and predictable pagination, avoiding a manually assembled document for every submission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Preserve mode is appropriate when each answer or label must remain on its own line. Reflow mode is available when the generated content should read as continuous prose, giving the portal control over readability without changing the underlying source format.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>PHP Code Example for Converting Plain Text to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-php\">require 'vendor\u002Fautoload.php';\n\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Client;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Request;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Utils;\n\n\u002F\u002F By default, we use the US-based API service.

That output is convenient for machines and developers, but a PDF is easier to deliver as evidence, circulate for approval, or combine with other project documentation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Suppose a Python data-quality job checks thousands of incoming records and writes a summary containing rule names, counts, and representative failures. After the run, the same workflow can convert the summary into a PDF for the data steward’s review packet. Preserved line handling keeps each finding distinct, while consistent page settings make recurring reports easier to compare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A script producing longer narrative observations can request reflow instead and let the service form readable paragraphs. This gives Python automation an intentional text-layout choice while retaining centralized control over fonts, margins, language metadata, and tagging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Python Code Example for Converting Plain Text to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-python\">import json\nimport os\nimport requests\n\n# By default, we use the US-based API service.

Conversion makes the image easier to combine with pages from other document sources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A support system might capture a troubleshooting screenshot and later include it in an incident report. Converting the PNG first produces a managed PDF resource that can be merged, protected, downloaded, or passed to another pdfRest operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The example sends one PNG through the shared \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint.

This conversion creates a PDF result that a portal, archive, or later document service can consume.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A publishing application might receive a \u003Ccode>.ps\u003C\u002Fcode> proof from its composition engine and apply a profile approved by the production team before exposing the converted PDF to editors. The profile file travels as an ordinary multipart input rather than as hard-coded Java settings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The API also works without that profile, using default settings.

The multipart form keeps that conversion close to the rest of the service’s HTTP work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A browser-facing proof service might accept a \u003Ccode>.ps\u003C\u002Fcode> export from a legacy renderer, send an approved \u003Ccode>.joboptions\u003C\u002Fcode> profile with it, and return a PDF resource to the front end for controlled download. The profile can be selected per workflow rather than embedded in the service.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>When no specialized settings are needed, the same endpoint can be called without the profile part. The input file and optional profile remain separate, which makes that choice visible in code review.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>JavaScript in NodeJS Code Example for PostScript to PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-javascript\">var axios = require(\"axios\");\nvar fs = require(\"fs\");\nvar FormData = require(\"form-data\");\n\n\u002F\u002F By default, we use the US-based API service.

Along the way, you'll learn which parts are ordinary cURL syntax, which fields are needed to convert TIFF to PDF, and what to expect from the API response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Convert TIFF to PDF with cURL?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Scanning, fax, medical-record, and document-imaging systems often produce TIFF files even when collaboration and case-management systems expect PDF. Converting at intake creates a consistent document type for the rest of the workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a records service can receive a multi-page TIFF from a scanner, submit it with cURL, and store the resulting PDF beside documents received from office applications. Later steps can apply OCR, merge pages, or add security without maintaining a TIFF-specific branch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>TIFF files may contain one image or many pages. The conversion preserves the source sequence in the generated PDF, while OCR remains a separate operation when the scanned text also needs to become searchable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>cURL Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\"># By default, we use the US-based API service.

Documents\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>TIFF is widely used for scanned records, archival images, and high-resolution document capture, but it is not always the most convenient format for distribution or downstream document processing. Converting a \u003Ccode>.tif\u003C\u002Fcode> or \u003Ccode>.tiff\u003C\u002Fcode> file to PDF gives applications a consistent document format that is broadly supported by browsers, business systems, and PDF workflows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fconvert-to-pdf\u002F\">Convert to PDF API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> accepts TIFF images through the same \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint used for other supported image, Office, email, PostScript, HTML, and structured-text formats. That consistent request pattern helps simplify systems that receive mixed file types: the application can standardize them as PDF without maintaining a separate conversion library for each source format. pdfRest uses Adobe PDF Library technology to produce reliable output that conforms to the PDF ISO 32000 specification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, an insurance intake system may receive scanned claim documents as TIFF files from several offices. Converting each upload to PDF gives adjusters a consistent format to review and lets the application pass the result directly into OCR, text extraction, merging, or archival steps without requiring staff to convert files manually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This Python example sends a TIFF file as multipart form data, assigns a predictable output name, and prints the JSON response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Python TIFF-to-PDF Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Install the \u003Ccode>requests\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>requests-toolbelt\u003C\u002Fcode> packages, then replace the file path and API-key placeholders.

Check \u003Ccode>response.ok\u003C\u002Fcode> before parsing the success schema, and validate that the expected output is present before continuing. For production code, add an application-appropriate timeout and catch network exceptions so a temporary connection problem is not mistaken for a conversion failure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>When another pdfRest operation should follow, pass the returned resource ID to the next API call instead of downloading and uploading the intermediate PDF. This supports efficient workflows such as converting a TIFF, applying OCR to make scanned text searchable, extracting text, merging the result with another document, or preparing it for delivery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Standardize TIFF Intake Without a Separate Image-Conversion Stack\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Applications that receive scans from different capture systems can send TIFF files through the same Convert to PDF workflow used for other supported image, Office, email, PostScript, HTML, and structured-text formats. That gives an intake service one document format for storage, search, review, and downstream PDF operations instead of a separate handling path for each incoming file type.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Configure the request only with the parameters supported for TIFF conversion. Image-only inputs do not use the document-layout controls intended for formats such as HTML or PostScript. For a production rollout, establish the supported image dimensions, color modes, compression types, and page structures used by the capture systems in scope, then let the application handle unsupported or damaged inputs through its normal exception path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C!--kg-card-end: html-->\n","2024-02-08T22:14:51.000+00:00","2026-09-22T19:02:55.000+00:00","Use the Convert to PDF

Although the data is structured, a raw XML file is inconvenient for people who need to approve, compare, or retain the information as part of a business record.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A financial operations system, for instance, might receive an XML acknowledgement after submitting a batch to an external processor. Converting that acknowledgement into a hierarchy-formatted PDF gives reviewers a clear view of batch identifiers, status fields, warnings, and nested transaction results.

Converting XML to PDF creates a portable representation that can be opened consistently, attached to a case, and shared without asking the recipient to use an XML editor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Consider a scheduled integration that saves a partner’s XML response whenever an order fails. A shell script can send that response to pdfRest, generate a hierarchy-formatted PDF, and attach the document to the incident record. The support team sees parent-child relationships and values without the visual noise of opening and closing tags, while the original XML remains available as the system record.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The same endpoint can use \u003Ccode>data_presentation: \"source\"\u003C\u002Fcode> when exact markup is the point of the document.

Those payloads are useful to software, but business reviewers usually need a stable document that communicates the same information without exposing them to raw markup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, an insurance platform may receive a nested XML response from an underwriting service and need to preserve the decision details with a case file.

Developers can process those files directly, but merchandising, customer service, and operations teams usually need a document they can review without interpreting XML syntax.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Suppose an online marketplace receives a supplier feed containing products, variants, availability, and pricing in nested XML. A PHP job can convert a rejected feed into a hierarchy-formatted PDF and send it with the validation report.

The file may contain exactly the information a team needs, yet raw XML is a poor deliverable for release managers, researchers, or clients who expect a document they can open and annotate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A continuous-integration pipeline provides a practical example: test tools may emit XML containing suites, cases, durations, and failure details. A Python step can convert that artifact into a hierarchy-formatted PDF for a release evidence package. Reviewers can follow the nested results in a familiar document, while engineers still retain the XML source for machine analysis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For workflows centered on code review, Python can request source presentation and show the markup directly.

PDF-generation workflows need a document with known page dimensions and count before any content is added. Storing a separate empty template for every variation creates files that must be versioned, distributed, and kept synchronized. The pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fcreate-blank-pdf\u002F\">Create Blank PDF API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> generates that starting document on demand, giving a Java application a consistent canvas for reports, covers, forms, certificates, print pieces, test fixtures, and other dynamically assembled PDFs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The \u003Ccode>\u002Fblank-pdf\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint requires no source upload. It creates the requested pages and returns a resource that is ready for another pdfRest operation. This separates document setup from content placement and allows applications to vary size, orientation, and page count through data rather than maintaining a growing template library.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a Java reporting service can create a three-page Letter-size PDF for each customer, then use Add to PDF to place a cover, account summary, and supporting details on the appropriate pages. The document structure can be generated from report data without storing and selecting a separate empty template first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This Java example creates a three-page, portrait, Letter-size PDF with OkHttp and prints the JSON response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Java Create Blank PDF Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Add OkHttp, java-dotenv, and JSON-java to the project.

Because the next call can use the server-side ID, the application does not have to download the empty PDF and upload it again before adding content.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The same resource-based pattern can continue into other pdfRest tools for merging, optimization, security, or delivery. It keeps the Java application focused on workflow rules while pdfRest handles the underlying PDF creation and modification operations. An optional \u003Ccode>output\u003C\u002Fcode> field can provide a meaningful filename for the generated document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Handle the OkHttp Response Reliably\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The example reads the API key through \u003Ccode>Dotenv\u003C\u002Fcode>, sends the request to the US Cloud API, and includes an alternate EU base URL. Keep the selected base URL in deployment configuration when the same application runs in multiple regions or environments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Before using the result, check \u003Ccode>response.isSuccessful()\u003C\u002Fcode> and validate that the expected resource information is present. Use try-with-resources around the OkHttp \u003Ccode>Response\u003C\u002Fcode> so its body is closed after every request. The sample applies a 60-second read timeout; production services should choose timeouts and retry behavior based on their own workload and should distinguish transient network failures from invalid request parameters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Keep the API key out of source control and avoid logging credentials or sensitive generated content. Standard and custom page sizes, page counts, and resource-ID chaining give the application a predictable starting point for every supported document-generation path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>You can

PDF\u002FA-3 invoice with .NET with C#.

ZUGFeRD and Factur-X pair a visual PDF with structured invoice XML so finance teams, customers, and downstream systems can work from the same invoice record.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A .NET with C# billing service could generate the invoice XML from its accounting data, pair it with a customer-facing PDF, and submit both to pdfRest before delivery. That gives the service a documented API step for producing the hybrid invoice rather than relying on a manual desktop process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The supplied PDF is retained when it agrees with the canonical XML. With \u003Ccode>regenerate_pdf=true\u003C\u002Fcode>, the service can create a replacement PDF when it cannot confirm that agreement or finds a mismatch, which gives the workflow a defined fallback instead of silently accepting an uncertain visual invoice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>What the Request Does\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The multipart request sends the invoice XML as \u003Ccode>file\u003C\u002Fcode> and the visual invoice PDF as \u003Ccode>pdf_file\u003C\u002Fcode>. \u003Ccode>regenerate_pdf\u003C\u002Fcode> controls the fallback behavior.

ZUGFeRD and Factur-X pair a visual PDF with structured invoice XML so finance teams, customers, and downstream systems can work from the same invoice record.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A Python billing service could generate the invoice XML from its accounting data, pair it with a customer-facing PDF, and submit both to pdfRest before delivery. That gives the service a documented API step for producing the hybrid invoice rather than relying on a manual desktop process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The supplied PDF is retained when it agrees with the canonical XML. With \u003Ccode>regenerate_pdf=true\u003C\u002Fcode>, the service can create a replacement PDF when it cannot confirm that agreement or finds a mismatch, which gives the workflow a defined fallback instead of silently accepting an uncertain visual invoice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>What the Request Does\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The multipart request sends the invoice XML as \u003Ccode>file\u003C\u002Fcode> and the visual invoice PDF as \u003Ccode>pdf_file\u003C\u002Fcode>. \u003Ccode>regenerate_pdf\u003C\u002Fcode> controls the fallback behavior.

A structured \u003Ccode>try\u003C\u002Fcode>\u002F\u003Ccode>finally\u003C\u002Fcode> flow or a durable cleanup queue can remove abandoned resources after failures while avoiding premature deletion during retries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Apply suitable request timeouts and cancellation tokens, handle network errors separately from API responses, and do not log document contents or secrets.

Python\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Files submitted to the pdfRest Cloud API are automatically removed after the retention period for the applicable plan, which is 30 minutes for most plans. Some applications need to remove resources sooner because a workflow has completed or an internal data-handling policy calls for immediate cleanup. The pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fdelete-files\u002F\">Delete Files API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> permanently deletes uploaded inputs and generated outputs on demand through the \u003Ccode>\u002Fdelete\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>On-demand deletion gives the application explicit control over the end of a resource's processing lifecycle. It should be used deliberately: once a resource is deleted, its ID cannot be used in another pdfRest call and the file cannot be recovered from pdfRest. The application must save every required output and finish all dependent operations before cleanup begins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a Python loan-processing service can upload an application package, run OCR and extraction, save the approved results inside the lender's document system, and then delete the source PDF and intermediate resources immediately. Tracking the resource IDs created at each stage lets the service clean up the complete processing set after confirming that the final records were stored successfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This example uses \u003Ccode>requests\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>MultipartEncoder\u003C\u002Fcode> to send two resource IDs for deletion in one call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Python Delete Files Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Install \u003Ccode>requests\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>requests-toolbelt\u003C\u002Fcode>, then replace the API-key and sample-ID placeholders with values from earlier API calls made with the same API key.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-python\">from requests_toolbelt import MultipartEncoder\nimport requests\nimport json\n\n# By default, we use the US-based API service.

Wait for the required operations to finish, verify that every final output has been downloaded or stored, and only then send the cleanup request. For workflows that fail partway through, a \u003Ccode>finally\u003C\u002Fcode> block or background cleanup job can remove resources that are no longer needed while preserving enough state to avoid deleting active work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Check the HTTP status and response before marking an ID as deleted in the application's records.

Java\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>When an application needs the photographs, diagrams, logos, or other assets inside a PDF, rendering whole pages adds surrounding text and layout that the asset workflow does not need. The pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fextract-images\u002F\">Extract Images API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> retrieves the embedded image objects themselves, preserving their native formats and properties whenever possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>That makes the output useful for digital asset management, publishing, content reuse, and visual-analysis pipelines without forcing every asset through an additional rendering or conversion process. Targeted page ranges and resource-ID input support both one-off uploads and multi-step document workflows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a Java-based publishing system can extract figures from submitted technical papers and route them to an editorial review queue. Page-aware filenames help editors trace each figure back to the document location where it first appeared, while native-format extraction preserves the image for later print or digital use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This example uses OkHttp to upload a local PDF as multipart form data and \u003Ccode>org.json\u003C\u002Fcode> to format the response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>Java Extract Images Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Add OkHttp, java-dotenv, and JSON-java to the project, then set \u003Ccode>PDFREST_API_KEY\u003C\u002Fcode> in the environment or a local \u003Ccode>.env\u003C\u002Fcode> file.

The \u003Ccode>pages\u003C\u002Fcode> value of \u003Ccode>1-last\u003C\u002Fcode> tells pdfRest to inspect the complete document. To limit processing, use individual pages and ranges such as \u003Ccode>1,2,5-10,12-last\u003C\u002Fcode>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The \u003Ccode>output\u003C\u002Fcode> value establishes a base name for every extracted asset. pdfRest adds an image sequence and the source page number to each name, producing results such as \u003Ccode>pdfrest_extracted_images-img001-page002\u003C\u002Fcode>. Predictable naming helps downstream code associate an asset with its location in the document even when one request returns several files.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The request reads the API key through \u003Ccode>Dotenv\u003C\u002Fcode> and posts to \u003Ccode>API_URL + \"\u002Fextracted-images\"\u003C\u002Fcode>.

Parse these collections and handle each image rather than assuming a single output. Download URLs support retrieving the files, while resource IDs let another pdfRest operation use an image without an intermediate download and re-upload.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Not every PDF contains extractable image objects. When none are found, pdfRest can return \u003Ccode>200 OK\u003C\u002Fcode> with a warning and empty \u003Ccode>outputUrl\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>outputId\u003C\u002Fcode> arrays. The application should distinguish this valid outcome from an error and decide whether no images is expected, reportable, or a reason to use a different operation such as rendering complete pages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Strengthen Response Handling for Production\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The example sets a 60-second read timeout and prints the status code and formatted response body. Production Java code should also verify \u003Ccode>response.isSuccessful()\u003C\u002Fcode>, parse the expected fields only after a successful status, and handle network failures separately from API validation errors. Use try-with-resources around the OkHttp \u003Ccode>Response\u003C\u002Fcode> so its body is always closed, especially in a service that processes many requests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Keep the API key out of source control and prevent sensitive document data from entering application logs. Apply the application's input-path and file policies before constructing the request, then use the returned collections to handle varied image formats and output counts consistently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>You can generate requests in \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapilab\u002F\">API Lab\u003C\u002Fa> and review the current request and response

with Node.js\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>A PDF can contain photographs, logos, diagrams, screenshots, and other image assets that need to be reused or analyzed separately from the document. Rendering each PDF page as a new image is not the same operation: page rendering creates a picture of the entire page, while the pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fextract-images\u002F\">Extract Images API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> retrieves the images embedded inside the PDF.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The \u003Ccode>\u002Fextracted-images\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint preserves the native image format and original image properties whenever possible, including common JPEG, PNG, and TIFF assets. This avoids an unnecessary conversion step and helps retain resolution, color accuracy, and compression properties for digital asset management, content repurposing, publishing, or image-analysis workflows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a Node.js product-ingestion service can receive a supplier's PDF catalog, extract the embedded product photographs, and associate the returned files with catalog records. The service can associate each returned native image with its catalog record without manually opening the PDF or rendering every page into a new bitmap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This Node.js example streams a local PDF into a multipart request with Axios and FormData, processes all pages, and prints the JSON response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>JavaScript Extract Images Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Install \u003Ccode>axios\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>form-data\u003C\u002Fcode>, then replace the PDF path and API-key placeholders.

The sample uses \u003Ccode>1-last\u003C\u002Fcode> to process the entire PDF. Applications can target only the relevant pages with individual numbers, ranges, or a combination such as \u003Ccode>1,2,5-10,12-last\u003C\u002Fcode>. Limiting the request is useful when a long document contains appendices or other sections that do not need image extraction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The optional \u003Ccode>output\u003C\u002Fcode> field supplies the base name for the extracted files. pdfRest appends image and page numbers so each result remains distinct. For example, an output value of \u003Ccode>test\u003C\u002Fcode> produces names such as \u003Ccode>test-img001-page002\u003C\u002Fcode>. Including both values makes it easier to connect each extracted asset with the page where it first appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Work with Multiple Output Files\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>One PDF can produce many extracted images, so the success response uses output collections rather than a single file value. Iterate over the available output URLs or resource IDs, then route each asset to the next application step. Resource IDs can continue through compatible pdfRest operations without intermediate transfers, while output URLs support storage in the application's own asset repository.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A PDF may also contain no embedded images. In that case, the endpoint can return \u003Ccode>200 OK\u003C\u002Fcode> with a warning and empty \u003Ccode>outputUrl\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>outputId\u003C\u002Fcode> arrays. Treat that as a valid no-results outcome rather than assuming every successful HTTP response contains at least one file.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>Make the Axios Request Production-Ready\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Ccode>data.getHeaders()\u003C\u002Fcode> supplies the correct multipart \u003Ccode>Content-Type\u003C\u002Fcode> value and boundary. The sample adds the API key and sets \u003Ccode>maxBodyLength\u003C\u002Fcode> to \u003Ccode>Infinity\u003C\u002Fcode> so Axios does not reject the upload based on its client-side body limit. Keep the API key in an environment variable or secret manager rather than source code.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The example logs either the response or the error. In an application, set an appropriate timeout, distinguish HTTP errors from connection failures, and avoid logging document content or credentials. Apply the application's file-type and size policies before submission, then use the returned collection to route every extracted asset into the next workflow step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Use the configurable base URL to select the US or EU Cloud API.

developers working with PDF forms. Flattening a PDF form means converting the editable form fields into static content, which ensures that the entered data cannot be altered.

within a PDF. Flattening forms means converting the editable form fields into static text, which is part of the PDF content and can no longer be edited. This tutorial will guide you through the process of sending an API call to the Flatten Forms endpoint using PHP, which is a common server-side scripting language used in web development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>In the real world, flattening forms can be crucial for preserving the content of filled-out forms, such as applications, contracts, or any other documents that require user input. Once a form is flattened, the information entered by the user is secured, and the document can be distributed without the risk of further modifications. This is particularly useful for finalizing documents before archiving or sharing them with parties that should not alter the content.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Flatten PDF Forms with PHP Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-php\">require 'vendor\u002Fautoload.php';\n\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Client;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Request;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Utils;\n\n$client = new Client();\n$headers = [\n  'Api-Key' => 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx'\n];\n$options = [\n  'multipart' => [\n    [\n      'name' => 'file',\n      'contents' => Utils::tryFopen('\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile', 'r'),\n      'filename' => '\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile',\n      'headers'  => [\n        'Content-Type' => '\u003Ccontent-type header=\"\">'\n      ]\n    ],\n    [\n      'name' => 'output',\n      'contents' => 'pdfrest_flattened_pdf'\n    ]\n]];\n\n$request = new Request('POST', 'https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Fflattened-forms-pdf', $headers);\n\n$res = $client->sendAsync($request, $options)->wait();\n\necho $res->getBody();\n\u003C\u002Fcontent-type>\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Source of the provided code: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FPHP\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002Fflattened-forms-pdf.php\">GitHub - datalogics\u002Fpdf-rest-api-samples\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The code begins by loading the required libraries for making HTTP requests.

Linearization, also known as \"web optimization\" or \"fast web view,\" restructures a PDF document so that its pages can be displayed one by one as they are downloaded, rather than waiting for the entire file to be downloaded first.

This is particularly useful for large PDFs that need to be viewed online, where users can start reading the PDF before the entire document has f","How to Linearize PDF with Python, Tutorial | pdfRest","Learn how to enable Fast Web View with Python using the Linearize PDF API Tool from pdfRest.",{"id":9465,"uuid":9466,"title":9467,"slug":9468,"html":9469,"comment_id":9465,"feature_image":48,"featured":284,"visibility":1257,"created_at":9470,"updated_at":9471,"published_at":9471,"custom_excerpt":9472,"codeinjection_head":9473,"codeinjection_foot":48,"custom_template":48,"canonical_url":48,"tags":9474,"primary_tag":9479,"url":9480,"excerpt":9472,"reading_time":345,"access":124,"comments":284,"og_image":48,"og_title":48,"og_description":48,"twitter_image":48,"twitter_title":48,"twitter_description":48,"meta_title":9481,"meta_description":9472,"email_subject":48,"frontmatter":48,"feature_image_alt":48,"feature_image_caption":48},"6a97640c533c9f26b943b7cc","027ccb96-df66-4249-8fba-8c44c98b9e3b","How to Merge Different File Formats Together as a PDF in .NET with C#","how-to-merge-different-file-formats-together-as-a-pdf-in-net-with-c","\n\u003C!--kg-card-begin: html-->\n\u003Cp>In this tutorial, we'll use C# and the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fmerge-pdfs\u002F\">Merge PDFs API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> to convert different file formats and merge them as one PDF.

The .NET flow converts each non-PDF source, reads its managed ID, and then assembles those outputs without saving intermediate files locally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a project-delivery service may need to combine a PNG diagram with a PowerPoint briefing. The sample sends both files through \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf\u003C\u002Fcode>, then passes their \u003Ccode>outputId\u003C\u002Fcode> values to \u003Ccode>\u002Fmerged-pdf\u003C\u002Fcode> to produce the ordered package.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Each multipart group supplies an ID, input type, and page selection. Preserving the same order across those repeated fields is important because it defines both which resources participate and where their pages appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>C# Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-csharp\">\u002F*\n * What this sample does:\n * - Converts two different file types to PDF via multipart, then merges them.\n * - Routed from Program.cs as: `dotnet run -- merge-different-file-types \u003CimageFile> \u003CpptFile>`.\n *\n * Setup (environment):\n * - Copy .env.example to .env\n * - Set PDFREST_API_KEY=your_api_key_here\n * - Optional: set PDFREST_URL to override the API region.

A conversion stage normalizes each image, presentation, or office document before Merge PDFs combines the results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A NodeJS onboarding service might collect an identity image and a presentation-style orientation guide. By retaining the \u003Ccode>outputId\u003C\u002Fcode> from each \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf\u003C\u002Fcode> response, it can submit both managed resources to \u003Ccode>\u002Fmerged-pdf\u003C\u002Fcode> in the desired sequence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The nested promise chain in the sample enforces the dependency between steps: presentation conversion starts after image conversion, and merging starts only after both IDs exist. A production service may express the same dependency with \u003Ccode>async\u003C\u002Fcode>\u002F\u003Ccode>await\u003C\u002Fcode>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>JavaScript in NodeJS Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-javascript\">var axios = require(\"axios\");\nvar FormData = require(\"form-data\");\nvar fs = require(\"fs\");\n\n\u002F* In this sample, we will show how to merge different file types together as\n* discussed in https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fsolutions\u002Fmerge-multiple-types-of-files-together\u002F.\nFirst, we will upload an image file to the \u002Fpdf route and capture the output ID.\n* Next, we will upload a PowerPoint file to the \u002Fpdf route and capture its output\n* ID.

demonstrates how to convert different file formats and merge them as one PDF from a PHP application through the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fmerge-pdfs\u002F\">Merge

Along the way, we'll distinguish the PHP syntax from the Merge Different Formats Together as a PDF API contract and show how its returned data supports the next step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Merge Different File Formats Together as a PDF with PHP?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Merge PDFs accepts PDF inputs, while real business packets often begin as a mixture of images, presentations, and existing documents. Converting the non-PDF sources first gives every item a common format for ordered assembly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A PHP claims system could receive a damage photograph and a PowerPoint assessment from different contributors. The sample converts each source through Convert to PDF, captures both output IDs, and merges them into one review packet without transferring the intermediate PDFs back to the application.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This is a three-request workflow rather than a single conversion call. Each conversion must succeed before its resource ID is added to the merge payload, and the order of those payload groups determines the order in the final document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>PHP Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-php\">require 'vendor\u002Fautoload.php';\n\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Client;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Request;\nuse GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\Utils;\n\n\u002F* In this sample, we will show how to merge different file types together as\n* discussed in https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fsolutions\u002Fmerge-multiple-types-of-files-together\u002F.\n* First, we will upload an image file to the \u002Fpdf route and capture the output ID.\n* Next, we will upload a PowerPoint file to the \u002Fpdf route and capture its output\n* ID. Finally, we will pass both IDs to the \u002Fmerged-pdf route to combine both inputs\n* into a single PDF.\n*\n* Note that there is nothing special about an image and a PowerPoint file, and\n* this sample could be easily used to convert and combine any two file types\n* that the \u002Fpdf route takes as inputs.\n*\u002F\n\n\u002F\u002F By default, we use the US-based API service.

PDF files into a single document. This tutorial will guide you through the steps to send an API call to Merge PDFs using Java, which can be particularly useful when dealing with document processing in server-side applications or batch processing systems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Merging PDFs is a common requirement for many businesses and services. For instance, an insurance company might need to merge various documents related to a claim into a single PDF before archiving or sending it to a client. Similarly, a legal firm may need to compile case files and evidence into a single document. Automating this process with Java and the pdfRest API saves time and reduces the potential for human error.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Merge PDFs with Java Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-java\">import io.github.cdimascio.dotenv.Dotenv;\nimport java.io.File;\nimport java.io.IOException;\nimport okhttp3.MediaType;\nimport okhttp3.MultipartBody;\nimport okhttp3.OkHttpClient;\nimport okhttp3.Request;\nimport okhttp3.RequestBody;\nimport okhttp3.Response;\nimport org.json.JSONObject;\n\npublic class MergedPDF {\n\n  \u002F\u002F Specify the paths to your file here, or as the arguments when running the program.\n  private static final String[] DEFAULT_FILE_PATHS =\n      new String[] {\"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile1.pdf\", \"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile2.pdf\"};\n\n  \u002F\u002F Specify your API key here, or in the environment variable PDFREST_API_KEY.\n  \u002F\u002F You can also put the environment variable in a .env file.\n  private static final String DEFAULT_API_KEY = \"xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\";\n\n  public static void main(String[] args) {\n    String[] inputFilePaths;\n    if (args.length > 0) {\n      inputFilePaths = args;\n    } else {\n      inputFilePaths = DEFAULT_FILE_PATHS;\n    }\n\n    final Dotenv dotenv = Dotenv.configure().ignoreIfMalformed().ignoreIfMissing().load();\n\n    MultipartBody.Builder bodyBuilder = new MultipartBody.Builder().setType(MultipartBody.FORM);\n\n    for (String inputFilePath : inputFilePaths) {\n      final File inputFile = new File(inputFilePath);\n      final RequestBody inputFileRequestBody =\n          RequestBody.create(inputFile, MediaType.parse(\"application\u002Fpdf\"));\n      bodyBuilder\n          .addFormDataPart(\"file\", inputFile.getName(), inputFileRequestBody)\n          .addFormDataPart(\"pages\", \"1-last\")\n          .addFormDataPart(\"type\", \"file\");\n    }\n\n    RequestBody requestBody = bodyBuilder.addFormDataPart(\"output\", \"pdfrest_merged_pdf\").build();\n\n    Request request =\n        new Request.Builder()\n            .header(\"Api-Key\", dotenv.get(\"PDFREST_API_KEY\", DEFAULT_API_KEY))\n            .url(\"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Fmerged-pdf\")\n            .post(requestBody)\n            .build();\n    try {\n      OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient().newBuilder().build();\n      Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();\n      System.out.println(\"Result code \" + response.code());\n      if (response.body() != null) {\n        System.out.println(prettyJson(response.body().string()));\n      }\n    } catch (IOException e) {\n      throw new RuntimeException(e);\n    }\n  }\n\n  private static String prettyJson(String json) {\n    \u002F\u002F https:\u002F\u002Fstackoverflow.com\u002Fa\u002F9583835\u002F11996393\n    return new JSONObject(json).toString(4);\n  }\n}\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Source code reference: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FJava\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002FMergedPDF.java\">pdf-rest-api-samples\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The code provided is a Java program that uses the pdfRest Merge PDFs API to combine multiple PDF files into a single document. It includes all necessary imports and a main class called \u003Ccode>MergedPDF\u003C\u002Fcode>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Firstly, the program defines default file paths and an API key. These can be overridden by command-line arguments or environment variables. The \u003Ccode>Dotenv\u003C\u002Fcode> library is used to load API keys from a .env file, providing a secure way to handle credentials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The \u003Ccode>MultipartBody.Builder\u003C\u002Fcode> is used to construct the request body, which includes the PDF files to be merged. Each file is added as a form data part with the content type \"application\u002Fpdf\". Additionally, the \"pages\" parameter specifies which pages to include from each file (\"1-last\" meaning all pages), and the \"type\" parameter indicates that the uploaded items are files.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The request is built with the necessary headers, including the API key, and the endpoint URL. The \u003Ccode>OkHttpClient\u003C\u002Fcode> is then used to execute the request, and the response is printed out. If the response body is not null, it is formatted into a pretty-printed JSON string using the \u003Ccode>prettyJson\u003C\u002Fcode> method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Beyond the Tutorial\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>This tutorial demonstrated how to make an API call to pdfRest's Merge PDFs endpoint using Java.

Use Merge PDFs with Python?\n\n\n\nThe pdfRest Merge PDFs API Tool is a powerful feature that allows you to combine multiple PDF documents into a single PDF file. This tutorial will guide you through the process of making an API call to the Merge PDFs endpoint using Python.\n\n\nMerging PDFs can be useful in various real-world scenarios, such as combining scanned documents, consolidating reports, or assembling a portfolio of work.\n\n\n\n\nMerge PDFs with Python Code Example\n\n\n\nfrom requests_toolbe","How to Merge PDF Documents with Python, Tutorial | pdfRest","Learn how to combine PDF documents in Python with the Merge PDF API tool from pdfRest.",{"id":9681,"uuid":9682,"title":9683,"slug":9684,"html":9685,"comment_id":9681,"feature_image":48,"featured":284,"visibility":1257,"created_at":9686,"updated_at":9471,"published_at":9471,"custom_excerpt":9687,"codeinjection_head":9688,"codeinjection_foot":48,"custom_template":48,"canonical_url":48,"tags":9689,"primary_tag":9694,"url":9695,"excerpt":9687,"reading_time":345,"access":124,"comments":284,"og_image":48,"og_title":48,"og_description":48,"twitter_image":48,"twitter_title":48,"twitter_description":48,"meta_title":9696,"meta_description":9687,"email_subject":48,"frontmatter":48,"feature_image_alt":48,"feature_image_caption":48},"6a9764e1533c9f26b943b7f2","e4949c0d-b856-4387-bb63-533c2b11e6b7","How to Poll for API Request Status in .NET with C#","how-to-poll-for-api-request-status-in-net-with-c","\n\u003C!--kg-card-begin: html-->\n\u003Cp>In this tutorial, we'll use C# and the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fapi-polling\u002F\">API Polling Tool\u003C\u002Fa> to submit asynchronous document work and poll its request status.

The web request can finish quickly while the worker owns timeout, retry, and completion behavior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The C# sample isolates initial submission and status retrieval in separate methods. That separation makes the two contracts clear: the first POST asks for \u003Ccode>requestId\u003C\u002Fcode>, while each later GET authenticates normally and addresses that identifier in the route.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>C# Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-csharp\">\u002F*\n * What this sample does:\n * - Demonstrates polling with response-type header and request-status.\n * - Routed from Program.cs as: `dotnet run -- request-status-multipart \u003CinputFile>`.\n *\n * Setup (environment):\n * - Copy .env.example to .env\n * - Set PDFREST_API_KEY=your_api_key_here\n * - Optional: set PDFREST_URL to override the API region.

to Poll for API Request Status with cURL","how-to-poll-for-api-request-status-with-curl","\n\u003C!--kg-card-begin: html-->\n\u003Ch2>Why Use API Polling with cURL?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThe pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fapi-polling\u002F\">API Polling Tool\u003C\u002Fa> offers a powerful solution for developers working with cURL and asynchronous pdfRest functionalities. cURL, a popular command-line tool, excels at making API calls. However, when dealing with complex tasks, requests can take longer to complete, which can result in timeouts, depending on your tools and implementation.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>\nImagine you're building a script that compresses a batch of large PDFs. Traditionally, you'd use cURL to send each conversion request and wait for each response to be returned before moving on. With API Polling enabled, the response immediately returns a unique \u003Ccode>requestID\u003C\u002Fcode>. Your script can then move on to other tasks while the conversion runs in the background. Later, when your script is ready, it can use cURL to send a separate request to the \u003Ccode>\u002Frequest-status\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint with the \u003Ccode>requestID\u003C\u002Fcode> This provides a real-time update on the compression's status.  Based on the response, your script can then initiate the next step, such as downloading the compressed document. This approach allows your script to work efficiently, avoiding unnecessary waiting and streamlining the overall process.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>API Polling with cURL Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Ch3>Enable API Polling with Processing Step\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">curl -X POST \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Fpdf\" \\\n  -H \"Accept: application\u002Fjson\" \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: multipart\u002Fform-data\" \\\n  -H \"Response-Type: requestId\" \\\n  -H \"Api-Key: xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\" \\\n  -F \"file=@\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile\"\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Ch3>Poll for Status of Processing Request\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">curl -X GET \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Frequest-status\u002Fxxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\" \\\n    -H \"Api-Key: xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\"\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cbr>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the POST Request Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThe cURL commands provided above are structured to communicate with the pdfRest API to send a processing request with API Polling enabled and then to poll the status of the request. Here's a breakdown of  each part of the initial POST request:\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">curl -X POST \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Fpdf\"\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThis initializes a cURL request using the POST method to the specified URL, which is the endpoint for converting files to PDF - an example we use here to illustrate how to enable API Polling.  Note that API Polling can be enabled for any endpoint.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">-H \"Accept: application\u002Fjson\"\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThis header tells the server that the client expects a response in JSON format.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">-H \"Content-Type: multipart\u002Fform-data\"\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThis header indicates that the data being sent is in multipart\u002Fform-data format, which is necessary for uploading files.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">-H \"Response-Type: requestId\"\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThis is the important header parameter we are adding to the POST request that enables API Polling.  This tells pdfRest to immediately return a \u003Ccode>requestId\u003C\u002Fcode> instead of waiting for the processing to complete and returning the full response at that time. The \u003Ccode>requestId\u003C\u002Fcode> will be used to poll for the response status instead.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">-H \"Api-Key: xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\"\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThe Api-Key header is used for authentication. Replace the placeholder with your actual API key provided by pdfRest.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">-F \"file=@\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile\"\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThe -F flag is used to specify each file being uploaded. The '@' symbol is followed by the file path, which tells cURL to get the file content from the specified location. Repeat this flag for each file you wish to upload.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>\nInstead of returning a full JSON response after processing finishes, this will immediately return a JSON response with a single requestId, like:\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre>{\n   \"requestId\": \"xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\"\n}\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cbr>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the GET Request Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>\nHere's a breakdown of  each part of the GET request to poll for the status to the previous POST request:\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">curl -X GET \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Frequest-status\u002Fxxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\"\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThis initializes a cURL request using the GET method to the specified URL, which is the endpoint for polling request statuses. Replace the placeholder with your actual \u003Ccode>requestID\u003C\u002Fcode> returned from the processing step.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">-H \"Api-Key: xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\"\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nAn Api-Key header is also required to use API Polling - replace with your actual key.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>\nIf the request has not yet completed, the response will look like this:\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre>{\n   \"status\": \"pending\",\n   \"requestId\": \"xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\"\n}\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nIf the request has completed, the response will look like this:\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre>{\n   \"status\": \"completed\",\n   \"requestId\": \"xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\",\n   \"outputUrl\": \"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Fresource\u002F01240b25a-8936-4437-8652-8410130f1199?format=file\",\n   \"outputId\": \"01240b25a-8936-4437-8652-8410130f1199\",\n   \"inputId\": \"112f7ea0d-0e56-44bc-a3d2-42fdff96d993\"\n}\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cbr>\n\n\u003Ch2>Beyond the Tutorial\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>\nBy following the above steps, you have learned how to use cURL to enable API Polling with your processing requests and poll for the status of the request.

Along the way, we'll distinguish the JavaScript in NodeJS syntax from the Poll for API Request Status API contract and show how its returned data supports the next step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Poll for API Request Status with JavaScript in NodeJS?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>A NodeJS service does not need to keep a long document-processing request open until the result is ready. Asking for a request ID separates submission from completion and allows other application work to continue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Imagine an API gateway that starts a large PDF-to-image job but has a short upstream timeout. The service can return control after submission, place the request ID on a queue, and let a worker call the status route until the output or an error becomes available.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The example uses an asynchronous sleep between GET requests and stops when the reported status is no longer \u003Ccode>pending\u003C\u002Fcode>.

redaction must remove sensitive text, not simply cover it visually. The pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fredact-pdf-api\u002F\">Redact PDF API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> uses two endpoints to make that distinction explicit. \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf-with-redacted-text-preview\u003C\u002Fcode> identifies and marks the text selected by your rules, while \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf-with-redacted-text-applied\u003C\u002Fcode> permanently removes the approved content. The workflow helps .NET teams automate recurring redaction work with clear visibility into matches before the source information is removed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This tutorial uses both endpoints in one C# workflow. The example immediately applies the preview so developers can see how to chain the calls. A production process can also insert an authorized approval rule between them when that step is part of the organization's redaction policy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a .NET customer-support archive can remove email addresses and phone numbers from case attachments before the documents are supplied to an analytics team. The application can use maintained presets to find common data formats, route preview files for approval, and release only the permanently redacted results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Create Redaction Rules in C#\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The preview endpoint expects \u003Ccode>redactions\u003C\u002Fcode> as a JSON array. Each entry can use:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>A \u003Ccode>literal\u003C\u002Fcode> value for an exact word, phrase, name, or identifier\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>A \u003Ccode>regex\u003C\u002Fcode> value for an organization-specific pattern\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>A \u003Ccode>preset\u003C\u002Fcode> value for a common type of sensitive data\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\n\n\u003Cp>Current presets cover formats such as email addresses, phone numbers, dates, U.S. Social Security numbers, credit-card numbers, bank-routing numbers, IBANs, SWIFT\u002FBIC numbers, URLs, and IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. These maintained patterns reduce the amount of matching logic your team must write for common data, while custom regular expressions and literals handle values unique to your organization. One request can combine all three methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The C# sample uses Newtonsoft.Json \u003Ccode>JArray\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>JObject\u003C\u002Fcode> instances to build the array safely before serializing it into the multipart request. Replace the demonstration pattern with rules designed and tested for the documents your application processes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>C# Preview-and-Apply Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Set the \u003Ccode>PDFREST_API_KEY\u003C\u002Fcode> environment variable and pass the input PDF path on the command line.

visible box is not sufficient when confidential information must be removed from a PDF. The pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fredact-pdf-api\u002F\">Redact PDF API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> uses a two-stage workflow: first preview the text that matches your rules, then apply the approved redactions so the selected content is permanently removed. This gives your application an API-driven way to find repeated sensitive values across large document sets with a controlled preview step before permanent removal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This separation makes every proposed match visible before the source text is removed. A person or an automated approval rule can advance the preview into the apply step, while the distinct endpoints keep preview files clearly separated from finished redacted documents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a legal-records workflow can search a set of documents for email addresses and client identifiers before files are released outside the case team. The preview call displays the matches, and the apply call then produces copies in which the approved values are permanently removed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Define the Text to Redact\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The \u003Ccode>redactions\u003C\u002Fcode> field is a JSON array. Each object uses one of three matching methods:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ccode>literal\u003C\u002Fcode> finds an exact name, identifier, phrase, or other known string.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ccode>regex\u003C\u002Fcode> finds text that follows a custom pattern.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ccode>preset\u003C\u002Fcode> applies a maintained pattern for common data such as email addresses, phone numbers, dates, U.S. Social Security numbers, payment-card numbers, bank-routing numbers, IBANs, SWIFT\u002FBIC numbers, URLs, and IP addresses.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\n\n\u003Cp>The methods can be combined in the same request. Literal values provide exact matching, custom regular expressions address organization-specific formats, and pdfRest's maintained presets cover common sensitive-data patterns without requiring teams to build and maintain those expressions themselves. Approved rules can then be reused consistently across recurring document workflows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>cURL Preview-and-Apply Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The current official sample requires cURL and \u003Ccode>jq\u003C\u002Fcode>. Replace the API-key and file-path placeholders before running it. The example sends the source PDF and redaction rules to the preview endpoint, reads the returned \u003Ccode>outputId\u003C\u002Fcode>, and supplies that ID to the applied-redaction endpoint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\">#!\u002Fbin\u002Fsh\n\n# This sample demonstrates the workflow from unredacted document to fully\n# redacted document.

The applied endpoint can also accept the optional \u003Ccode>rgb_color\u003C\u002Fcode> parameter when the final redaction blocks should use a color other than the default black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The official sample immediately forwards the preview into the apply call to demonstrate the complete API chain. Workflows can also pause between the calls when an authorized approval step is part of the organization's redaction policy. Once a rule set is approved, the same resource-ID chain supports automatic processing at scale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Apply and Protect the Final PDF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The apply endpoint permanently removes the approved content from the PDF rather than covering it with a visual overlay.

Limit access to source and preview files because both can contain unredacted information. The sample also includes an optional call to the Delete Files endpoint; save any required outputs before enabling it, and never delete the preview resource before the applied-redaction call has completed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>With exact matches, custom patterns, maintained presets, a reviewable preview, and permanent application in one API workflow, Redact PDF supports repeatable automation with controlled approvals.

It can fit a print or prepress integration that needs a PostScript-based derivative or rebuilt page content for an established downstream requirement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The C# complex-flow example demonstrates how a .NET application passes resource IDs through that multi-call job. It creates PostScript from the source PDF, uses the returned ID in the conversion back to PDF, and writes the final bytes only after the second response succeeds. A hosted worker can retain each stage’s output ID for supportability while temporary resources follow service cleanup policy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The result may no longer retain the source PDF’s tags, form behavior, layers, or other PDF-specific structures. Preserve the original before choosing refrying for a downstream requirement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>C# Code Example for PDF Refrying\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-csharp\">\u002F*\n * What this sample does:\n * - Converts PDF to PostScript and then converts the PostScript back to PDF.\n * - This PDF -> PostScript -> PDF roundtrip is commonly called PDF refrying.\n * - Some print, prepress, and legacy production workflows use it to rebuild,\n *   flatten, or normalize page content for downstream systems.\n * - Refrying is intentionally lossy and may remove tags, forms, layers,\n *   annotations, transparency, metadata, and editability.\n * - The PostScript-to-PDF step uses a custom .joboptions profile in this\n *   sample. A .joboptions file contains Adobe Distiller-compatible conversion\n *   settings; it is optional, and default settings are used when omitted.\n * - pdfRest applies the profile with Datalogics PDF Converter SDK. Datalogics\n *   maintains the SDK in partnership with Adobe, using the same Adobe\n *   technology that powers Distiller.\n *\n * Setup (environment):\n * - Copy .env.example to .env\n * - Set PDFREST_API_KEY=your_api_key_here\n * - Optional: set PDFREST_URL to override the API region. For EU\u002FGDPR\n *   compliance and proximity, use PDFREST_URL=https:\u002F\u002Feu-api.pdfrest.com\n *\n * Usage:\n *   dotnet run -- refry-pdf \u003Cpdf> \u003Cjoboptions> [outputPdf]\n *\n * Output:\n * - Prints each API result and downloads refried.pdf unless outputPdf is set.\n *\u002F\n\nusing Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;\nusing System.Net.Http.Headers;\n\nnamespace Samples.ComplexFlowExamples;\n\npublic static class RefryPdf\n{\n    public static async Task Execute(string[] args)\n    {\n        if (args.Length \u003C 2)\n        {\n            throw new ArgumentException(\"refry-pdf requires \u003Cpdf> \u003Cjoboptions> [outputPdf]\");\n        }\n\n        var inputPath = args[0];\n        var jobOptionsPath = args[1];\n        var outputPath = args.Length > 2 ?

Some document-production, print, and prepress workflows use that roundtrip when a legacy downstream system requires rebuilt page content or a PostScript-based intermediate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Java makes the two service dependencies explicit and easy to integrate into a managed application: the first request returns a PostScript resource, and the second request consumes that resource to produce the final PDF. No intermediate file has to be downloaded between the calls, while a job record can retain the original input ID, intermediate ID, and final PDF ID for controlled diagnostics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Because refrying trades away PDF-specific constructs, retain the source PDF and use the generated file only where the downstream requirement accepts the roundtrip’s consequences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Java Code Example for PDF Refrying\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-java\">import io.github.cdimascio.dotenv.Dotenv;\nimport java.io.File;\nimport java.io.IOException;\nimport java.nio.file.Files;\nimport java.nio.file.Path;\nimport java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;\nimport okhttp3.MediaType;\nimport okhttp3.MultipartBody;\nimport okhttp3.OkHttpClient;\nimport okhttp3.Request;\nimport okhttp3.RequestBody;\nimport okhttp3.Response;\nimport org.json.JSONObject;\n\n\u002F*\n * Refry a PDF by converting it to PostScript and back to PDF.\n *\n * PDF refrying is the common name for a PDF -> PostScript -> PDF roundtrip.\n * Some print, prepress, and legacy production workflows use it to rebuild,\n * flatten, or normalize page content for downstream systems.

It can be useful in a print or prepress delivery flow when a downstream stage expects page content rebuilt through a PostScript-based path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>JavaScript in NodeJS expresses that process as two awaited requests: the first result’s \u003Ccode>outputId\u003C\u002Fcode> becomes a data dependency for the second call instead of a temporary local file that has to be managed separately. A worker can apply a chosen \u003Ccode>.joboptions\u003C\u002Fcode> configuration on the return conversion, then upload or download the final PDF only after both calls complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The workflow is intentionally lossy.

The first response identifies the temporary PostScript result; the next request references that result, applies a known \u003Ccode>.joboptions\u003C\u002Fcode> profile when needed, and returns the final PDF without transferring the intermediate outside the service.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Since the route can discard interactive and structural PDF features, production code should store the original source independently and treat the generated PDF as a delivery derivative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>PHP Code Example for PDF Refrying\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-php\">\u002F* Refry a PDF by converting it to PostScript and back to PDF.\n *\n * PDF refrying is the common name for a PDF -> PostScript -> PDF roundtrip.\n * Some print, prepress, and legacy production workflows use it to rebuild or\n * normalize page content, flatten certain PDF constructs, or prepare a file\n * for downstream systems.

It completes a PDF -> PostScript -> PDF roundtrip with the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fpdf-to-postscript\u002F\">pdfRest PDF to PostScript API Tool\u003C\u002Fa>, then passes its output resource ID into \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf\u003C\u002Fcode>. The complete sample is included below so Python developers can see the file handling, request construction, and response path together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Refry a PDF with Python?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>PDF refrying converts a PDF to PostScript and then converts the PostScript into a new PDF. Some prepress-support processes use it when they need a PostScript-based normalization stage between a supplier file and a delivery PDF.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Python is well suited to express that sequence as a small, observable data pipeline: submit the original PDF, capture the PostScript ID, submit that ID with the desired profile, and save the completed PDF bytes. Recording the intermediate and final IDs also gives operators a useful account of what happened in the job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The roundtrip is not a preservation operation. Keep the source PDF where form fields, tags, layers, annotations, transparency, metadata, or editing capability must survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Python Code Example for PDF Refrying\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-python\">\"\"\"Refry a PDF by converting it to PostScript and back to PDF.\n\nPDF refrying is the common name for a PDF -> PostScript -> PDF roundtrip.\nSome print, prepress, and legacy production workflows use it to rebuild or\nnormalize page content, flatten certain PDF constructs, or prepare a file for\ndownstream systems. The process is intentionally lossy and may remove tags,\nforms, layers, annotations, transparency, metadata, and editability. Use this\nworkflow when a downstream system requires rebuilt page content or a\nPostScript-based interchange file.\n\nThe PostScript-to-PDF step uses a custom .joboptions profile in this sample. A\n.joboptions file contains Adobe Distiller-compatible conversion settings; it is\noptional, and default settings are used when omitted. pdfRest applies the\nprofile with Datalogics PDF Converter SDK.

In this tutorial, we'll show you how to send an API call using C# to Remove a PDF Password. This is valuable for organizations that receive password-protected documents from external sources  or need to access archived PDFs with passwords.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here's a common scenario where Removing a PDF Password comes into play:\n\u003Cbr\u002F>\u003Cbr\u002F>\nImagine a legal firm receives password-protected witness testimonies from another law office.

Supplying the known open password creates a usable decrypted copy without modifying the protected source.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>A NodeJS records service could accept password-protected reports from a partner, decrypt each report inside a controlled job, and then pass the output ID to indexing. The password remains an input to that job rather than becoming part of the PDF itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The endpoint only works when the current credential is valid.

The MediaBox establishes the physical page boundary, while other boxes can define the visible, printed, or finished regions. The pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fset-page-boxes\u002F\">Set Page Boxes API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> lets a PHP application adjust these boundaries programmatically through the \u003Ccode>\u002Fpdf-with-page-boxes-set\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This distinction matters: changing a MediaBox changes the page canvas, but it does not scale the text, images, or vector artwork already on the page. Expanding the boundary can add surrounding page area, while reducing it can place existing content outside the new boundary. If a workflow needs to proportionally enlarge or shrink the page content itself, page-box adjustments alone are not the same operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, an archival intake system may receive a batch containing both US Letter and A4 scans. If the archive requires an A4 page boundary before documents are assembled into a single package, the application can apply the approved Letter-to-A4 MediaBox calculation to every file. The content stays at its original scale while the page boundary is standardized consistently across the batch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The PHP example calculates the difference between Letter and A4 dimensions in PDF points and sends the resulting MediaBox adjustments as multipart form data.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>PHP Set Page Boxes Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Install Guzzle with Composer, replace the API-key and local-file placeholders, and select the US or EU base URL shown in the official sample.

US Letter is 612 by 792 points, and A4 is approximately 595 by 842 points. The difference is applied across the page edges according to the desired alignment. A centered adjustment divides the horizontal and vertical differences between opposite sides; an anchored adjustment can leave one edge fixed and apply the full difference to the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The signs are significant because these values act as margins from the current boundary.

plain-text file into a shorter, structured result. It handles PDF text extraction, structure-aware conversion, and AI summarization behind one endpoint, reducing the amount of document-processing and model-integration code your team must build and maintain. Common uses include report previews, document-management dashboards, research intake, support knowledge bases, and workflows that need a quick overview before a person opens the source document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The \u003Ccode>\u002Fsummarized-pdf-text\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint accepts an uploaded file or a pdfRest resource ID. This example uses a multipart upload, which works well when the PDF begins on the local file system. If another pdfRest API Tool produced the input, pass its output ID instead to avoid transferring the intermediate file again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a .NET document-review portal can generate a short overview when a lengthy vendor proposal is uploaded, allowing a reviewer to identify its main topics before opening the full file.

The request is then sent asynchronously with \u003Ccode>$client->sendAsync($request, $options)->wait();\u003C\u002Fcode>, and the response body is printed using \u003Ccode>echo $res->getBody();\u003C\u002Fcode>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Beyond the Tutorial\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>In this tutorial, you learned how to make a multipart API call to the pdfRest Summarize PDF endpoint using PHP.

When a file is returned, store the output ID or download URL according to the application's retention and access-control requirements. When summary text is returned inline, validate that the expected field is present before displaying or saving it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Present Summaries with Source Context\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Summaries accelerate review by giving readers a focused orientation to longer material.

who need to upload PDF files to a server for processing. This API provides a simple and secure way to send files over the internet, ensuring that they can be easily accessed for further manipulation or storage. In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to make an API call to the pdfRest Upload Files endpoint using C#. This is particularly useful for applications that need to handle PDF documents, such as document management systems, content management platforms, or any software that requires the processing of PDF files.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Imagine a scenario where a legal firm needs to upload and process a large number of case-related PDF documents. They could use this API to automate the upload process, saving time and reducing the risk of human error. By integrating the Upload Files API into their software, they can streamline the workflow, allowing lawyers and paralegals to focus on more critical tasks while the system takes care of the document handling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Upload Files with C# Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-csharp\">using (var httpClient = new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri(\"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\") })\n{\n    using (var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Post, \"upload\"))\n    {\n        request.Headers.TryAddWithoutValidation(\"Api-Key\", \"xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx\");\n        request.Headers.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue(\"application\u002Fjson\"));\n\n        var byteArray = File.ReadAllBytes(\"\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile.pdf\");\n        var byteAryContent = new ByteArrayContent(byteArray);\n        byteAryContent.Headers.TryAddWithoutValidation(\"Content-Type\", \"application\u002Foctet-stream\");\n        byteAryContent.Headers.TryAddWithoutValidation(\"Content-Filename\", \"filename.pdf\");\n\n        request.Content = byteAryContent;\n        var response = await httpClient.SendAsync(request);\n\n        var apiResult = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();\n\n        Console.WriteLine(\"Upload response received.\");\n        Console.WriteLine(apiResult);\n    }\n}\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Reference: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FDotNET\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FJSON%20Payload\u002Fupload.cs\">pdfRest C# Sample Code\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The provided C# code snippet demonstrates how to upload a file to the pdfRest API.

Request\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Document workflows often begin with a related set of files rather than a single PDF. The pdfRest \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fupload-files\u002F\">Upload Files API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> lets a .NET application upload multiple local files in one multipart request to \u003Ccode>\u002Fupload\u003C\u002Fcode>. The response associates each original filename with a unique resource ID that can be passed into later pdfRest operations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Pre-uploading is optional because processing tools can accept files directly. It is useful when several steps will reuse the same inputs or when the application wants to separate transfer from processing. Once the files have resource IDs, subsequent API calls can use compact JSON bodies instead of uploading the same binaries again. This reduces repeated transfer and makes multi-step request logic easier to track.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a C# claims portal can upload a claim form, supporting photographs, and a policy document together. The application records each returned resource ID, passes the relevant PDFs to Merge PDFs, and retains the image IDs for other processing. A single intake request keeps the submitted names and server resources aligned without requiring a separate upload call for every item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>This adapted example accepts multiple file paths, adds each file under the repeated multipart field name \u003Ccode>file\u003C\u002Fcode>, and prints the JSON response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>C# Multiple-File Upload Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Set \u003Ccode>PDFREST_API_KEY\u003C\u002Fcode> in the environment and optionally set \u003Ccode>PDFREST_URL\u003C\u002Fcode> to select the US or EU Cloud API. Pass at least two valid file paths to the sample.

Add every local file as a separate content part with the same form field name, \u003Ccode>file\u003C\u002Fcode>, and its own original filename. The Upload Files endpoint recognizes the repeated field and returns a resource entry for each uploaded item. Do not combine local \u003Ccode>file\u003C\u002Fcode> parts with \u003Ccode>url\u003C\u002Fcode> fields in the same request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The sample follows the official repository's \u003Ccode>ByteArrayContent\u003C\u002Fcode> pattern for clarity and repeats that pattern for every path. For larger files or batches, adapt the request to use \u003Ccode>StreamContent\u003C\u002Fcode> so the application does not hold all file bytes in memory at once. The total size of all files in the call is subject to the upload limit for the account's plan, even though the tool does not impose a separate file-count limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The response is JSON, but the local file upload request itself is multipart form data. Parse the response collection by filename and resource ID, verify that every expected file is present, and store the mapping with the document job. Do not rely only on array position if filenames provide a safer association.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Choose the Correct Upload Method\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Multiple local files require multipart form data. A single local file can alternatively be sent as a raw binary request with \u003Ccode>application\u002Foctet-stream\u003C\u002Fcode> and a \u003Ccode>Content-Filename\u003C\u002Fcode> header. Files already hosted at public URLs can be submitted by repeating the endpoint's \u003Ccode>url\u003C\u002Fcode> parameter instead of downloading them into the application first. Local files and public URLs cannot be mixed in one call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The repository file currently located under “JSON Payload” for C# Upload sends one raw binary file; it is not a JSON request and does not demonstrate multiple-file upload. For that reason, this tutorial should not describe it as the common JSON-payload alternative. The JSON benefit appears in subsequent processing calls, where the resource IDs returned by Upload Files can replace new multipart uploads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Check the HTTP status and response schema before starting downstream work. Add appropriate timeouts and cancellation, keep the API key out of source control, and avoid logging document content.

The application can retain the filename-to-ID mapping and then choose the correct resource for each subsequent API Tool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The request repeats the same \u003Ccode>file\u003C\u002Fcode> field once per local input. cURL creates one multipart body, and the response contains a \u003Ccode>files\u003C\u002Fcode> entry for every accepted upload.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>cURL Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-bash\"># By default, we use the US-based API service.

A successful response contains an \u003Ccode>outputId\u003C\u002Fcode> for the new PDF with its recognized text layer. The script stores that value as \u003Ccode>ocr_pdf_id\u003C\u002Fcode> and supplies it as the \u003Ccode>id\u003C\u002Fcode> field in the second multipart request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The \u003Ccode>\u002Fextracted-text\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint works from that server-side resource and returns the recognized content in JSON. The sample prints \u003Ccode>fullText\u003C\u002Fcode>, which is useful when the application needs a document-level string for search indexing, data analysis, or another text-processing step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The Extract Text tool also supports more detailed output. Depending on the application, you can request full text by page or document, preserve line breaks, include coordinates for each word, and include font or color information. This lets one API support simple full-text indexing as well as layout-aware extraction without forcing every application into the same response shape. Coordinate and style data are useful when layout matters; plain full text is usually simpler for search, classification, or language-processing workflows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Choose OCR Languages and Inputs Carefully\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>OCR defaults to English when no language is supplied. For documents in other languages, use the optional \u003Ccode>languages\u003C\u002Fcode> parameter and follow the current \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fdocs.pdfrest.com\u002Fpdfrest-api-toolkit-cloud\u002Fapi-reference-guide\u002Ftool\u002Focr-pdf\">OCR PDF API reference\u003C\u002Fa> for supported ISO 639-2 Alpha-3 language codes. Limiting recognition to the languages actually present can improve the balance between accuracy and processing time, especially for multilingual or CJK documents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>OCR is most valuable for scanned and image-only content. Born-digital PDFs may already contain extractable text, while mixed PDFs can contain both existing text and page images. Query PDF can identify image-only files so the application routes each document through the appropriate extraction path automatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Build OCR into a Reliable Extraction Workflow\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>OCR gives image-based documents a searchable text layer that the application can route directly into Extract Text, search, classification, or data-entry workflows. Recognition quality reflects the characteristics of the scanned page, including resolution, rotation, contrast, language, font, and page condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For workflows that act on names, amounts, identifiers, or other decisive values, design field-level business rules around the extracted result. The API response provides the processing status and expected output fields; application logic can use those fields to route a clean result forward or flag an exception for the process that owns the underlying data. This turns OCR from a manual recovery step into a useful part of a repeatable document-intake workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C!--kg-card-end:

A validation step checks the ZUGFeRD or Factur-X package and its PDF\u002FA conformance before a receiving, records, or accounts-payable workflow treats the file as an accepted result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a .NET with C# intake service can validate supplier invoices as they arrive, retain the response with the processing record, and route an unsuccessful result for follow-up before the invoice enters an automated approval path. This gives operational teams a clear decision point rather than discovering a problem later in the workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Validation does not repair or replace the submitted PDF. It reports on the existing hybrid invoice, allowing the calling application to preserve the original, request a corrected version, or route the document to a separate creation or remediation process when appropriate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>What the Request Does\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The multipart request contains one PDF in the \u003Ccode>file\u003C\u002Fcode> field.

It uses the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdfrest.com\u002Fapitools\u002Fcreate-zugferd-pdf\u002F\">pdfRest Create ZUGFeRD PDF API Tool\u003C\u002Fa> to submit the invoice PDF to its validation endpoint and print the response without modifying the document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Why Validate a ZUGFeRD PDF with PHP?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Receiving an invoice PDF is not the same as knowing that it is a usable hybrid electronic invoice. A validation step checks the ZUGFeRD or Factur-X package and its PDF\u002FA conformance before a receiving, records, or accounts-payable workflow treats the file as an accepted result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a PHP intake service can validate supplier invoices as they arrive, retain the response with the processing record, and route an unsuccessful result for follow-up before the invoice enters an automated approval path. This gives operational teams a clear decision point rather than discovering a problem later in the workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Validation does not repair or replace the submitted PDF. It reports on the existing hybrid invoice, allowing the calling application to preserve the original, request a corrected version, or route the document to a separate creation or remediation process when appropriate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>What the Request Does\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The multipart request contains one PDF in the \u003Ccode>file\u003C\u002Fcode> field. The endpoint analyzes that existing document and returns validation information; it does not generate a replacement invoice or modify the supplied PDF.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>The PHP samples use Guzzle and PSR-7 stream utilities.

hybrid invoice with Python.

A validation step checks the ZUGFeRD or Factur-X package and its PDF\u002FA conformance before a receiving, records, or accounts-payable workflow treats the file as an accepted result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a Python intake service can validate supplier invoices as they arrive, retain the response with the processing record, and route an unsuccessful result for follow-up before the invoice enters an automated approval path. This gives operational teams a clear decision point rather than discovering a problem later in the workflow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Validation does not repair or replace the submitted PDF. It reports on the existing hybrid invoice, allowing the calling application to preserve the original, request a corrected version, or route the document to a separate creation or remediation process when appropriate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>What the Request Does\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The multipart request contains one PDF in the \u003Ccode>file\u003C\u002Fcode> field.

This API provides a means to retrieve metadata, structure, and content details, which can be essential for document management systems, content analysis, and automated workflows. This tutorial will guide you through the process of sending an API call to Query PDF using JavaScript to perform a PDF\u002FA validation check.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>\nMany businesses operate within legal and regulatory frameworks that mandate specific document retention standards.  PDF\u002FA conformance validation plays a vital role in ensuring your digital documents meet these requirements.  By validating your PDFs as PDF\u002FA, you're creating tamper-proof archives that comply with industry regulations and legal mandates.  This helps organizations avoid potential penalties and legal risks associated with non-compliant document storage.  Furthermore, PDF\u002FA validation guarantees the long-term accessibility and searchability of electronic documents, facilitating efficient information retrieval for audits or legal proceedings.

The file path should be replaced with the actual path to your PDF file.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-javascript\">data.append('queries', 'pdfa');\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThis line appends queries that specify the information you want to retrieve about the PDF file. Each query corresponds to a specific attribute or feature of the PDF, such as whether it's tagged, contains images only, and so on. In this case, we are only including \"pdfa\" to run a PDF\u002FA validation check.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-javascript\">var config = {\n  method: 'post',\n  ...\n  headers: { \n    'Api-Key': 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx',\n    ...data.getHeaders()\n  },\n  data : data\n};\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nThe \u003Ccode>config\u003C\u002Fcode> object contains the configuration for the axios request, including the HTTP method, the API endpoint URL, headers (including the API key which should be replaced with your own), and the data payload.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-javascript\">axios(config)\n.then(function (response) {\n  console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data));\n})\n.catch(function (error) {\n  console.log(error); \n});\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>\nFinally, the axios request is sent, and the response is handled.

businesses looking to extract specific information from PDF documents programmatically. Included in its many features is the ability to validate conformance for PDF\u002FA documents. This tutorial will demonstrate how to send a PDF\u002FA validation API call to the Query PDF endpoint using Python, which is a popular language for scripting and automation due to its readability and extensive library support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\u003Cp>Businesses across industries can benefit from PDF\u002FA conformance validation for several reasons. Imagine a large legal firm managing a vast digital archive of case documents. Validating these PDFs as PDF\u002FA ensures they'll be accessible and usable far into the future, regardless of the software used to create them. This allows for reliable document retrieval, accurate search based on embedded metadata, and eliminates potential compatibility issues when sharing documents with external parties. By automating PDF\u002FA validation, legal firms (and any business with long-term document storage needs) save time, reduce errors, and guarantee the integrity and accessibility of their critical information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Validate PDF\u002FA with Python Code Example\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cpre class=\"language-python\">from requests_toolbelt import MultipartEncoder\nimport requests\nimport json\n\npdf_info_endpoint_url = 'https:\u002F\u002Fapi.pdfrest.com\u002Fpdf-info'\n\n# The \u002Fpdf-info endpoint can take a single PDF file or id as input.\n# This sample demonstrates querying the pdfa check, which validates conformance and returns true or false\nmp_encoder_pdfInfo = MultipartEncoder(\n    fields={\n        'file': ('file_name.pdf', open('\u002Fpath\u002Fto\u002Ffile', 'rb'), 'application\u002Fpdf'),\n        'queries': 'pdfa',\n    }\n)\n\n# Let's set the headers that the pdf-info endpoint expects.\n# Since MultipartEncoder is used, the 'Content-Type' header gets set to 'multipart\u002Fform-data' via the content_type attribute below.\nheaders = {\n    'Accept': 'application\u002Fjson',\n    'Content-Type': mp_encoder_pdfInfo.content_type,\n    'Api-Key': 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' # place your api key here\n}\n\nprint(\"Sending POST request to pdf-info endpoint...\")\nresponse = requests.post(pdf_info_endpoint_url, data=mp_encoder_pdfInfo, headers=headers)\n\nprint(\"Response status code: \" + str(response.status_code))\n\nif response.ok:\n    response_json = response.json()\n    print(json.dumps(response_json, indent = 2))\nelse:\n    print(response.text)\n\u003C\u002Fpre>\n\n\u003Cp>Reference: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fpdfrest\u002Fpdfrest-api-samples\u002Fblob\u002Fmain\u002FPython\u002FEndpoint%20Examples\u002FMultipart%20Payload\u002Fpdf-info.py\">pdf-rest-api-samples on GitHub\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Breaking Down the Code\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>The provided Python code demonstrates how to make a POST request to the \u003Ccode>pdf-info\u003C\u002Fcode> endpoint of the pdfRest API.
