How do I save PDF that is compatible with some legacy PDF applications?

Q: We are trying to use imposition solution to our Documents using
PDFTron version 5.7 (x64bit) and we are now get errors when we rip pdf
on our Indigo 5500.

Actually the procedure to replicate the error is quite simple:

  1. run the sample on you site:
    http://www.pdftron.com/pdfnet/samplecode/ImpositionTest.cs
  2. try to open the file using a simple pdf parser…for example:
    http://xtractpro.com/articles/PDF-File-Parser.aspx

it is the same problem we on our Indigo pipeline. The error is:
Offending command getPdfObject.

so how to produce a file imposed correctly?


A: I suspect that this project simply does not have support for PDF
1.6+ (i.e compressed xref and object streams).

I am not sure if this is the same issue with you Indigo 5500.

You can try save PDF in 1.4 compatible format using e_compatibility as
shown on the following line:

doc.Save(“my.pdf”, SDFDoc.SaveOptions.e_compatibility);

Really thanks....
with the

e_compatibility

flag it works!
