scConverter SDK

The scConverter SDK includes a few example applications, written in C# and C++ (MFC).
All these examples are located in the "C:\Users\Public\Documents\scConverter SDK\examples" folder after installing the SDK.
Full source code and corresponding project files can be found as subfolders to this folder.

You can also find more sample code in our support forum: scConverter Samples.

scMergePDF - A C# PDF Merge Example

This C# example demonstrates how to create a new PDF by merging different PDF files. Using the scConverter merge functionality you may include all pages, or individual pages, from the source PDF files.
Below you will find a screenshot of the PDF merge example application:

This application is very easy to use; you open different PDF files one by one using the Open PDF File for Import button. After the file is opened a thumbnail of each page in the file will be listed in the left page list. You may then either add all pages using the Add all Pages button or select one or more of the pages in the left page list and then add these using the Add Selected Page(s) button. When all desired files and pages have been added, you may create the new merged PDF file using the Create New PDF button.
