Iron PDF is a tool that enables the export of text content and images from an existing PDF. Users can modify the document by inserting new pages from either created media or an existing PDF.
Firstly, users can use the IronPDF, HTML to PDF renderer to create PDFs from existing web pages, HTML files, or HTML fragments, including images, JavaScript, and CSS assets. This feature is particularly useful for web developers who want to save time while creating PDFs from web pages.
Secondly, within an ASP. Net webforms project, users can utilize the ASPX to PDF functionality to render ASPX pages as PDFs instead of HTML. This convenient feature is also great for web forms developers who are looking to streamline their PDF creation process.
IronPDF also allows users to open existing PDF files, export their content including text and images, and insert new pages. Users may choose to take new pages from their created media or an existing PDF and add them to their edited PDF file. Additionally, users can insert new content with intro PDF on top or behind the existing content, such as watermarks, background, page numbers, headings, or footers.
Saving PDF files is also simple with IronPDF. Users can use the PDF document.stream property to save any IronPDF.PDF document object to a memory stream. Alternatively, they can export the data as a byte array using the binary data property of the PDF document.
For enhanced security, the software allows users to add user and author passwords to the metadata of their PDF files. Users can also encrypt their PDF files using 218 bit or higher encryption, protecting their documents. Moreover, users may choose to protect their PDF files from being copied and pasted.
IronPDF supports C# PDF export functionality in any type of .Net project, be it Windows Forms, console, MVC, or an Azure function. The software also fully supports Class Library projects for PDF export functionality in C#.
Overall, IronPDF offers a wide range of options for PDF export and editing, making it a valuable software for web developers and beyond.
