# Struct securepdf::PDFEdit

The PDFEdit struct provides text and document editing capabilities for PDFs.

## Syntax

```text
securepdf::PDFEdit
```

## Remarks

The PDFEdit struct can be used to automate search and replace operations, text extraction, content composition, and document merging and splitting.

To begin, provide the input document as a file ([input_file](#input_file-property-pdfedit-struct)), byte array ([input_data](#input_data-property-pdfedit-struct)), or stream (set_input_stream) and call [open](#open-method-pdfedit-struct). When finished editing the document, call [close](#close-method-pdfedit-struct) to close it and save the changes to either [output_file](#output_file-property-pdfedit-struct), [output_data](#output_data-property-pdfedit-struct), or the stream set in set_output_stream.

### Search, Replace, and Extract Text

 Use the [replace_page_text](#replace_page_text-method-pdfedit-struct) and [replace_document_text](#replace_document_text-method-pdfedit-struct) methods to iterate through the page or document content and replace all the text elements that match the specified pattern with the provided text. The struct fires the [on_replace_text](#on_replace_text-event-pdfedit-struct) event during this operation, providing the flexibility of skipping certain text blocks or updating the replacement string on the fly. For example:

```csharp
pdfedit.InputFile = "invoice.pdf";
pdfedit.OutputFile = "invoice_filled.pdf";

pdfedit.OnReplaceText += (s, e) =>
{
  if (e.Substitute == "/n software")
  {
    e.Substitute = "my company";
  }
};

pdfedit.Open();
int occurrences = pdfedit.ReplacePageText(0, "SELLER_NAME", "/n software");
pdfedit.Close();
```

 Please see [this article](https://www.nsoftware.com/kb/articles/pdfedit-searching-replacing-text) for more details about searching and replacing text.

Additionally, the [get_page_text](#get_page_text-method-pdfedit-struct) and [get_document_text](#get_document_text-method-pdfedit-struct) methods let you extract all the text residing on a specific page or in the entire document.

### Content Composition

With PDFEdit, you can also create documents from scratch or add text or images to existing documents using the editing API. This consists of the following four methods:

- [create_new](#create_new-method-pdfedit-struct) creates a blank PDF document.
- [add_text_block](#add_text_block-method-pdfedit-struct) adds a block of text.
- [add_bitmap](#add_bitmap-method-pdfedit-struct) adds an image (JPEG, BMP, or PNG).
- [add_drawing](#add_drawing-method-pdfedit-struct) adds a vector drawing.

The above methods are complemented by a set of formatting methods that let you choose the parameters of the added text or image (where, what color, how big, or how skewed):

- [set_position](#set_position-method-pdfedit-struct) sets the page to work with and places the cursor at a specific position on the page.
- [set_font](#set_font-method-pdfedit-struct) sets the font to use, including its size, style, and color.
- [set_alignment](#set_alignment-method-pdfedit-struct) sets the block alignment (left/center/right, top/center/bottom).
- [set_transform](#set_transform-method-pdfedit-struct) sets the transformation matrix, which alters positioning, scaling, rotation angle, and skew.

### Document Merging and Splitting

 Document-level operations can be performed with the [append_page](#append_page-method-pdfedit-struct), [insert_page](#insert_page-method-pdfedit-struct), [remove_page](#remove_page-method-pdfedit-struct), and [remove_pages](#remove_pages-method-pdfedit-struct) methods.

To copy pages from one document to another, open each document in an individual PDFEdit object. Then, using [select_page](#select_page-method-pdfedit-struct), select the page of document 1 that you want to add to document 2, and assign the PDFPage object populated in its selected_page property to the new_page property of the recipient document. Finally, commit the page to the recipient document using [append_page](#append_page-method-pdfedit-struct) or [insert_page](#insert_page-method-pdfedit-struct).

```csharp
dest.InputFile = "recipient.pdf";
dest.Open();

src.InputFile = "donor.pdf";
src.Open();

src.SelectPage(0);
dest.NewPage = src.SelectedPage;
dest.AppendPage();

dest.Close();
src.Close();
```

 To split the document in two, use [remove_pages](#remove_pages-method-pdfedit-struct) to remove the respective subsets of pages from the document, then save each remaining part. For example:

```csharp
pdfedit.InputFile = "input_4_pages.pdf";
pdfedit.Open();

// Remove the pages after page 1, and save the first part (pages 0-1)
pdfedit.OutputFile = "input_first.pdf";
pdfedit.RemovePages(2, 2);
pdfedit.Close();

// Remove the pages up to and including page 1, and save the second part (pages 2-3)
pdfedit.OutputFile = "input_second.pdf";
pdfedit.Open();
pdfedit.RemovePages(0, 2);
pdfedit.Close();
```

 Please see [this article](https://www.nsoftware.com/kb/articles/pdfedit-splitting-merging) for more details about splitting and merging PDFs.

### Object Lifetime

 The *new()* method returns a mutable reference to a struct instance. The object itself is kept in the global list maintained by SecurePDF. Due to this, the PDFEdit struct cannot be disposed of automatically. Please, call the *dispose(&mut; self)* method of PDFEdit when you have finished using the instance.

Note that upon completion of this method, the position will not be automatically moved to the newly appended page.

# close method ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Closes the opened document.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn close(&self) -> Result<(), SecurePDFError>
```

## Remarks

**Example:**

```csharp
component.InputFile = "input.pdf";
component.Open();
// Some operation
component.Close();
```

 If any changes are made to the document, they are saved automatically to [output_file](#output_file-property-pdfedit-struct), [output_data](#output_data-property-pdfedit-struct), or the stream set in set_output_stream when this method is called. To configure this saving behavior, set [SaveChanges](#SaveChanges).

# config method ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn config(&self, configuration_string : &str) ->  Result<String, SecurePDFError>
```

## Remarks

config is a generic method available in every struct. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#config-settings-pdfedit-struct) for the struct.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the struct, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the config method.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#config-settings-pdfedit-struct), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

```

## Remarks

This method is used to create a blank PDF document with one empty page. Use [DefaultPageWidth](#DefaultPageWidth) and [DefaultPageHeight](#DefaultPageHeight) to adjust the new page dimensions. Having created the baseline document, use the struct's methods to add objects to it.

# encrypted method ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Checks whether the document is encrypted.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn encrypted(&self) ->  Result<bool, SecurePDFError>
```

**Example:**

```csharp
component.InputFile = "input.pdf";
if (component.Encrypted())
{
  // Set Password or DecryptionCert
}
component.Open();
// Some operation
component.Close();
```

| Xmp | "" | The XML body of the XMP metadata embedded in the document. |
| Xmp[property] | "" | The value of an XMP metadata property. |
| XmpStream | "" | The hex-encoded content of the XMP metadata stream. |

**Example:**

```csharp
pdfedit.InputFile = "input.pdf";
pdfedit.Open();

string description = pdfedit.GetDocumentProperty("Xmp[dc:description]");
string metadataXml = pdfedit.GetDocumentProperty("Xmp");

// Use language descriptors for multi-language properties
string descriptionEs = pdfedit.GetDocumentProperty("Xmp[dc:description[es]]");

pdfedit.Close();
```

 NOTE: Each document property is only populated once the document has been loaded, which is reported by the [on_document_info](#on_document_info-event-pdfedit-struct) event.

component.InputFile = "input.pdf";
component.Open();
for (int i = 0; i < pageCount; i++) component.GetPageProperty(i, "Height");
component.Close();
```

 The page properties can be used to adjust the position of the signature widget based on the page dimensions. For example:

```csharp
int x = int.Parse(pdfsign.GetPageProperty(0, "Width")) - 100;
int y = int.Parse(pdfsign.GetPageProperty(0, "Height")) - 100;
pdfsign.SetWidgetProperty("OffsetX", x.ToString());

fn set_alignment(&self, horizontal_alignment : i32, vertical_alignment : i32) -> Result<(), SecurePDFError>
```

## Remarks

This method is used to set the horizontal and vertical alignment parameters to apply when [add_text_block](#add_text_block-method-pdfedit-struct) or [add_bitmap](#add_bitmap-method-pdfedit-struct) is called. Alignment specifies the position of the newly added text block or image relative to the current position on the page.

*horizontal_alignment* specifies the horizontal alignment. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (haLeft - default) |  |
| 1 (haCenter) |  |
| 2 (haRight) |  |

*vertical_alignment* specifies the vertical alignment. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (vaTop - default) |  |
| 1 (vaCenter) |  |
| 2 (vaBottom) |  |

# set_document_property method ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Sets the value of a document property.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn set_document_property(&self, document_property : &str, value : &str) -> Result<(), SecurePDFError>
```

## Remarks

This method is used to adjust properties of the opened document. Together with [get_document_property](#get_document_property-method-pdfedit-struct), this method provides an extensible way of managing the document settings that are not available through other means. The list of settings below may be extended in the future.

*document_property* and *value* specify the document property and value to set respectively. Possible values for the former are:

| Document property | Default value | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Xmp | "" | The XML body of the XMP metadata embedded in the document. |
| Xmp[property] | "" | The value of an XMP metadata property. |
| XmpStream | "" | The hex-encoded content of the XMP metadata stream. |

**Example:**

```csharp
pdfedit.InputFile = "input.pdf";
pdfedit.Open();

pdfedit.SetDocumentProperty("Xmp[dc:description]", "My first book draft");
pdfedit.SetDocumentProperty("Xmp", "...xml data here...");

// Use language descriptors for multi-language properties
pdfedit.SetDocumentProperty("Xmp[dc:description[es]]", "El primer borrador de mi libro");

pdfedit.Close();
```

# set_font method ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Sets the font properties to be applied to text.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn set_font(&self, name : &str, size : &str, style : &str, color : &str) -> Result<(), SecurePDFError>
```

## Remarks

This method is used to define the font attributes for text.

*name* specifies the font name.

*size* specifies the font size, either as an absolute value (e.g., *12*) or relative adjustment (e.g., *+2*).

*style* specifies the font style. The following syntax is supported:

*[B][I][bold][italic][##%][##%,##%][0.###][0.###]*

For example:

- *bold*
- *bold 50%*
- *bold italic 50%*
- *BI 50% 42%*
- *B 50% italic 0.42*

 If only one transparency figure is provided, it applies to both pen and brush.

# set_position method ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Sets the page and position for new text blocks or images.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn set_position(&self, page_index : i32, x : &str, y : &str) -> Result<(), SecurePDFError>
```

## Remarks

This method is used to define the position where new text blocks or images are added. The page is identified by *page_index* (zero-based), *x* specifies the horizontal position, and *y* specifies the vertical position.

*x* and *y* values that are absolute, relative to the current position, and relative to the page dimensions are all supported.

**Example:**

```csharp
// Sets to exact coordinates.
pdfedit.SetPosition(0, "100", "20");
// Moves 20 points to the right and 20 points down from the current position.
pdfedit.SetPosition(0, "{x}+20", "{y}-20");
// Moves 20 points from the right edge and 120 points from the top edge of the page.
pdfedit.SetPosition(0, "{width}-20", "{height}-120");
```

 NOTE: *page_index* set to *-1* specifies the last page of the document.

# set_transform method ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Sets the object transformation parameters for subsequent insertion operations.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn set_transform(&self, translation_x : &str, translation_y : &str, scale_x : &str, scale_y : &str, rotation : &str, skew_a : &str, skew_b : &str) -> Result<(), SecurePDFError>
```

## Remarks

This method is used to specify the transformation matrix to apply when [add_text_block](#add_text_block-method-pdfedit-struct) or [add_bitmap](#add_bitmap-method-pdfedit-struct) is called. The transformation matrix defines how the coordinates and content of the newly added text block or image are mapped onto the page.

*translation_x* and *translation_y* specify the horizontal and vertical translation of the object in points.

*scale_x* and *scale_y* specify the horizontal and vertical scaling of the object (e.g., use *0.5* to scale an image to half its original size).

*rotation* specifies the rotation angle of the object in degrees counterclockwise.

*skew_a* and *skew_b* specify the horizontal and vertical skew angles of the object in degrees (e.g., use *30* and *20* respectively to slant the object by 30 degrees horizontally and 20 degrees vertically).

# on_document_info event ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Fired when the document has been loaded into memory.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// PDFEditDocumentInfoEventArgs carries the PDFEdit DocumentInfo event's parameters.
pub struct PDFEditDocumentInfoEventArgs {
  fn page_count(&self) -> i32
}

// PDFEditDocumentInfoEvent defines the signature of the PDFEdit DocumentInfo event's handler function.
pub trait PDFEditDocumentInfoEvent {
  fn on_document_info(&self, sender : PDFEdit, e : &mut PDFEditDocumentInfoEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> PDFEdit<'a> {
  pub fn on_document_info(&self) -> &'a dyn PDFEditDocumentInfoEvent;
  pub fn set_on_document_info(&mut self, value : &'a dyn PDFEditDocumentInfoEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

This event is fired once per document processing routine to report that the document has been processed and loaded into memory.

The handler for this event is a good place to check the document structure and access document-related information such as page number and document file details.

*page_count* reports the number of pages in the document.

This event is fired when [open](#open-method-pdfedit-struct) is called, but only after [on_password](#on_password-event-pdfedit-struct) or [on_recipient_info](#on_recipient_info-event-pdfedit-struct) is fired (if applicable) and the document has been decrypted.

# on_error event ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// PDFEditErrorEventArgs carries the PDFEdit Error event's parameters.
pub struct PDFEditErrorEventArgs {
  fn error_code(&self) -> i32
  fn description(&self) -> &String
}

// PDFEditErrorEvent defines the signature of the PDFEdit Error event's handler function.
pub trait PDFEditErrorEvent {
  fn on_error(&self, sender : PDFEdit, e : &mut PDFEditErrorEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> PDFEdit<'a> {
  pub fn on_error(&self) -> &'a dyn PDFEditErrorEvent;
  pub fn set_on_error(&mut self, value : &'a dyn PDFEditErrorEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

The on_error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the struct fails with an error.

The *error_code* parameter contains an error code, and the *description* parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the [Error Codes](#trappable-errors-pdfedit-struct) section.

# on_log event ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Fired once for each log message.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// PDFEditLogEventArgs carries the PDFEdit Log event's parameters.
pub struct PDFEditLogEventArgs {
  fn log_level(&self) -> i32
  fn message(&self) -> &String
  fn log_type(&self) -> &String
}

// PDFEditLogEvent defines the signature of the PDFEdit Log event's handler function.
pub trait PDFEditLogEvent {
  fn on_log(&self, sender : PDFEdit, e : &mut PDFEditLogEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> PDFEdit<'a> {
  pub fn on_log(&self) -> &'a dyn PDFEditLogEvent;
  pub fn set_on_log(&mut self, value : &'a dyn PDFEditLogEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

This event is fired once for each log message generated by the struct. The verbosity is controlled by the [LogLevel](#LogLevel) configuration setting.

*log_level* indicates the detail level of the message. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (None) | No messages are logged. |
| 1 (Info - default) | Informational events such as the basics of the chain validation procedure are logged. |
| 2 (Verbose) | Detailed data such as HTTP requests are logged. |
| 3 (Debug) | Debug data including the full chain validation procedure are logged. |

*message* is the log message.

*log_type* identifies the type of log entry. Possible values are:

- CertValidator
- Font
- HTTP
- PDFInvalidSignature
- PDFRevocationInfo
- Timestamp
- TSL

# on_password event ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Fired when the struct detects that the document is encrypted with a password.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// PDFEditPasswordEventArgs carries the PDFEdit Password event's parameters.
pub struct PDFEditPasswordEventArgs {
  fn available(&self) -> bool
  fn cancel(&self) -> bool
  fn set_cancel(&self, value : bool)
}

// PDFEditPasswordEvent defines the signature of the PDFEdit Password event's handler function.
pub trait PDFEditPasswordEvent {
  fn on_password(&self, sender : PDFEdit, e : &mut PDFEditPasswordEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> PDFEdit<'a> {
  pub fn on_password(&self) -> &'a dyn PDFEditPasswordEvent;
  pub fn set_on_password(&mut self, value : &'a dyn PDFEditPasswordEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

This event is fired during document processing to report that the document is encrypted with a password. It may be used to supply the correct decryption password to [password](#password-property-pdfedit-struct).

*available* indicates whether the decryption password is already available to the struct or still needs to be set. If this parameter is *false*, the correct password must be provided for the decryption attempt to succeed.

*cancel* determines whether the struct will stop firing this event to request a password.

# on_recipient_info event ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Fired for each recipient certificate of the encrypted document.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// PDFEditRecipientInfoEventArgs carries the PDFEdit RecipientInfo event's parameters.
pub struct PDFEditRecipientInfoEventArgs {
  fn issuer(&self) -> &String
  fn serial_number(&self) -> &String
  fn subject_key_identifier(&self) -> &String
  fn available(&self) -> bool
  fn cancel(&self) -> bool
  fn set_cancel(&self, value : bool)
}

// PDFEditRecipientInfoEvent defines the signature of the PDFEdit RecipientInfo event's handler function.
pub trait PDFEditRecipientInfoEvent {
  fn on_recipient_info(&self, sender : PDFEdit, e : &mut PDFEditRecipientInfoEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> PDFEdit<'a> {
  pub fn on_recipient_info(&self) -> &'a dyn PDFEditRecipientInfoEvent;
  pub fn set_on_recipient_info(&mut self, value : &'a dyn PDFEditRecipientInfoEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

This event is fired during document processing for each recipient certificate that the document has been encrypted for (if applicable). It may be used to identify the certificate(s) to load and supply to decryption_cert.

*issuer* specifies the subject of the issuer certificate.

*serial_number* specifies the serial number of the encryption certificate.

*subject_key_identifier* specifies the X.509 subjectKeyIdentifier extension value of the encryption certificate, encoded as a hex string.

*available* indicates whether the decryption certificate is already available to the struct or still needs to be set. If this parameter is *false*, the correct certificate must be provided for the decryption attempt to succeed.

*cancel* determines whether the struct will stop firing this event to request a certificate.

NOTE: The document may be encrypted with more than one certificate (or have "more than one recipient"), in which case each certificate causes its own invocation of this event.

# on_replace_text event ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

Fired when a substring in the document is due to be replaced.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// PDFEditReplaceTextEventArgs carries the PDFEdit ReplaceText event's parameters.
pub struct PDFEditReplaceTextEventArgs {
  fn page_index(&self) -> i32
  fn entry_index(&self) -> i32
  fn offset(&self) -> i32
  fn pattern(&self) -> &String
  fn substitute(&self) -> &String
  fn set_substitute(&self, value : &str)
  fn set_substitute_ref(&self, value : &String)
  fn skip(&self) -> bool
  fn set_skip(&self, value : bool)
}

// PDFEditReplaceTextEvent defines the signature of the PDFEdit ReplaceText event's handler function.
pub trait PDFEditReplaceTextEvent {
  fn on_replace_text(&self, sender : PDFEdit, e : &mut PDFEditReplaceTextEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> PDFEdit<'a> {
  pub fn on_replace_text(&self) -> &'a dyn PDFEditReplaceTextEvent;
  pub fn set_on_replace_text(&mut self, value : &'a dyn PDFEditReplaceTextEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

This event is fired from within [replace_document_text](#replace_document_text-method-pdfedit-struct) and [replace_page_text](#replace_page_text-method-pdfedit-struct), repeatedly, for each located *pattern* string. It may be used to track and, if required, alter individual text substitutions.

*page_index* contains the page number where the entry is located.

*entry_index* contains the index number of the entry related to the other entries.

*offset* specifies the offset of the substring from the beginning of the page or document.

*substitute* contains the value that *pattern* will be replaced with. This value matches the *value* parameter passed to the respective [replace_document_text](#replace_document_text-method-pdfedit-struct) or [replace_page_text](#replace_page_text-method-pdfedit-struct) call. Adjust it from the event handler if required.

*skip* determines whether the struct will skip substituting this entry and proceed to the next one.

# Config Settings ([PDFEdit](#struct-securepdfpdfedit) Struct)

 The struct accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the struct, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the [config](#config-method-pdfedit-struct) method.

### PDFEdit Config Settings

**AFRelationship[Key]**: The value of the AFRelationship key for the attachment.This setting specifies the value of the AFRelationship key for the attachment. This key in the file specification dictionary expresses the relationship between the attachment and the document, and it must be set for each attachment added to PDF/A-3 documents. *Key* is either the index of the attachment in the attachments collection or the  of the attachment.

**AutoTurnPages**: Whether to change the page automatically upon exceeding the upper or lower page boundary.This setting specifies whether the struct turns the page automatically. If set to *true*, the struct automatically progresses to the next or previous page upon reaching a page boundary while adding new elements or changing the page position. If set to *false*, any new elements are added to the current page, even if they are outside of the visible page region. The default value is *true*.

**CloseInputStreamAfterProcessing**: Whether to close the input stream after processing.This setting determines whether the input stream specified in set_input_stream will be closed after processing is complete. The default value is *true*.

**CloseOutputStreamAfterProcessing**: Whether to close the output stream after processing.This setting determines whether the output stream specified in set_output_stream will be closed after processing is complete. The default value is *true*.

**CompressStreams**: Whether to compress stream objects.This setting specifies whether the bytes in the document's stream objects are compressed when the document is saved. The default value is *true*.

**DefaultPageHeight**: The default height for newly added pages.This setting specifies the default height, in points, of pages added using [create_new](#create_new-method-pdfedit-struct) or [add_new_page](PDFForm.md#PDFForm_m_AddNewPage). The default value is *0*, meaning the struct reuses the height of the previous page when adding a new page. If the new page is the first in the document, the height defaults to the standard *792*.

**DefaultPageWidth**: The default width for newly added pages.This setting specifies the default width, in points, of pages added using [create_new](#create_new-method-pdfedit-struct) or [add_new_page](PDFForm.md#PDFForm_m_AddNewPage). The default value is *0*, meaning the struct reuses the width of the previous page when adding a new page. If the new page is the first in the document, the width defaults to the standard *612*.

**EnforcePDFA**: Whether to enforce PDF/A compliance.This setting specifies whether the struct enforces PDF/A compliance when operating on the document. If set to *true*, [PDFALevel](#PDFALevel) and [PDFAPolicy](#PDFAPolicy) are used to establish the level of PDF/A compliance to apply. The default value is *true*.

**FallbackFont**: The fallback font.This setting specifies the font that the struct uses if it cannot find the intended font on the local system. In PDF/A, fonts must be embedded into the document, so this setting can be useful when text must be added but no font is available.

**FontPaths**: The font search paths.This setting specifies a CRLF-separated list of directories where the struct searches for additional TrueType font files. It is used when resolving a TrueType font specified in [set_font](#set_font-method-pdfedit-struct) without a full file path.

Each entry is interpreted as a directory path used during font lookup. To use a specific TrueType font file, either specify its filename and include the containing directory in this setting, or specify the full file path in [set_font](#set_font-method-pdfedit-struct).

The default value is the system font search paths. These paths are platform-dependent:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| Windows | %windir%\Fonts and %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts |
| macOS and iOS | /System/Library/Fonts/, /Library/Fonts/, and ~/Library/Fonts/ |
| Linux | Directories listed by dir entries in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf and /usr/local/etc/fonts/fonts.conf |
| Android | /system/fonts |

On Windows, the .NET and Java editions obtain these locations through the runtime APIs or the *windir*, *SystemRoot*, and *LOCALAPPDATA* environment variables.

To use custom directories together with the default system locations, include both to prevent the current search path list from being replaced. For example:

```csharp
string fontPaths = component.Config("FontPaths");
fontPaths += @"\r\nC:\Fonts";
component.Config("FontPaths=" + fontPaths);
```

**KeepPositionOnInsert**: Whether to keep the current position after inserting an element.This setting specifies whether the struct keeps the current position at the set value after inserting an element. In the default configuration, insertion of a new element, such as a text block, moves the page position marker to the right of the newly inserted element. If set to *true*, the struct keeps the position marker at its original location after adding the element. The default value is *false*.

**LoadMedia**: Whether to load images from the document.This setting specifies whether the struct loads images from the document. If media does not need to be accessed, it can be set to *false* to speed up document processing. The default value is *true*.

**LogLevel**: The level of detail that is logged.This setting controls the level of detail that is logged through the [on_log](#on_log-event-pdfedit-struct) event. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (None) | No messages are logged. |
| 1 (Info - default) | Informational events such as the basics of the chain validation procedure are logged. |
| 2 (Verbose) | Detailed data such as HTTP requests are logged. |
| 3 (Debug) | Debug data including the full chain validation procedure are logged. |

**OwnerPassword**: The owner password to decrypt the document with.This setting is used to provide the document owner password for decryption. Though it may be different from [password](#password-property-pdfedit-struct), most implementations use the same value for both.

**PageCopyByRefElements**: The names of page elements to be copied by reference.This setting specifies a semicolon-separated list of names of page elements that are copied by reference (shallow copy) instead of by value when [append_page](#append_page-method-pdfedit-struct) or [insert_page](#insert_page-method-pdfedit-struct) is called. If set to an empty string, the struct copies all page elements by value, which may lead to inefficient duplication of inherently shared objects such as fonts or bitmaps. The default value is *Resources*.

**PDFALevel**: The PDF/A conformance level to enforce.This setting specifies the desired PDF/A conformance level that the struct attempts to enforce when [EnforcePDFA](#EnforcePDFA) is set to *true*. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 1 | PDF/A-1 |
| 2 | PDF/A-2 |
| 3 (default) | PDF/A-3 |

**PDFAPolicy**: The PDF/A policy to follow.This setting specifies the PDF/A policy the struct follows when [EnforcePDFA](#EnforcePDFA) is set to *true*. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| Default | Maps to Preserve. |
| Preserve | Keep existing document features and only write PDF/A-compliant pieces. If the struct needs to write a non-compliant piece, it throws an exception. |
| Enforce | Preserve PDF/A-compliant pieces and attempt to fix violations in the original document. |

**RightPadding**: The width of the whitespace gap to the right of newly added elements.This setting specifies the width, in points, of the empty space that is allowed to the right of newly added elements. Using a non-zero value for this setting allows multiple text blocks and other elements to be placed next to each other without sticking them together. This setting is ignored if [KeepPositionOnInsert](#KeepPositionOnInsert) is set to *true*. The default value is *5*.

**SaveChanges**: Whether to save changes made to the document.This setting specifies whether and how changes made to the PDF document are saved when [close](#close-method-pdfedit-struct) is called. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | Discard all changes. |
| 1 | Save the document to [output_file](#output_file-property-pdfedit-struct), [output_data](#output_data-property-pdfedit-struct), or the stream set in set_output_stream, even if it has not been modified. |
| 2 (default) | Save the document to [output_file](#output_file-property-pdfedit-struct), [output_data](#output_data-property-pdfedit-struct), or the stream set in set_output_stream, but only if it has been modified. |

**SystemFontNames**: The system font names.This setting returns a CRLF-separated list of system TrueType font names that are supported by the struct. This setting is read-only.

**TempPath**: The location where temporary files are stored.This setting specifies an absolute path to the location on disk where temporary files are stored. It can be useful to reduce memory usage.

### Base Config Settings

**BuildInfo**: Information about the product's build.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

**CodePage**: The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

The following is a list of valid code page identifiers:

**LicenseInfo**: Information about the current license.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a struct is using. It will return the following information:

- Product: The product the license is for.
- Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
- License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
- License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
- Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.

**MaskSensitiveData**: Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to *true* to mask sensitive data. The default is *true*.

**UseInternalSecurityAPI**: Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation. When set to *false*, the struct will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to *true* tells the struct to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

 On Windows, this setting is set to *false* by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to *true* by default.

 To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the [OpenSSL Notes](platforms.md) section.
