Import PDF exception

[Egil]

Hello,

I have the following code that loads a PDF :

byte[] file = File.ReadAllBytes(@"c:\big.pdf");
RadFixedDocument doc = null;
var prov = new PdfFormatProvider();
using (var input = new MemoryStream())
{
   input.Write(file, 0, file.Length);
   doc = prov.Import(input);
}

 

On import I am getting the following exception :

Unable to cast object of type 'Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.Model.Types.PdfReal' to type 'Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.Model.Types.PdfName'.

 

I attached the pdf used to this. Could you please let me know what the problem is? (Telerik version used is 2017.1.116.40)

Thank you.

Hi Eric,

I can see that you had a discussion on that topic in another forum post and the issue has been resolved in newer versions of PdfProcessing. I am posting the link to the other thread for anyone who might encounter this question: https://www.telerik.com/forums/probleme-with-pdfprocessing-with-pdf-generate-by-nuance.

Hope this is useful.
