Hello,

I am trying to get IE PDFViewer to select multiple objects in a PDF either interactively to by code.

But I am not able to achieve this.

If I can get PDFViewer to select multiple objects I want perform some operations on them like move selected objects, enlarge selected objects by 10%, if selected object contains text objects then change their fonts, etc.

Is it possible to perform such operations?

TIA

Hi Yogi

See the demo:

D:\Data_ImageEn\Demo_Dev\Testing\LayerEditing\Layers_AllTypes\Layers.dpr

File > Load All Layers supports reading from PDF

View > View as PDF shows exporting to PDF

Hi Yogi

At this time, the PDFViewer does not support the selection of multiple objects. You can import the PDF content as layers, and then multiple layers can be be selected. However PDF -> Layers then Layers -> PDF is not a lossless process, there will be changes to the content.
