In case anyone needs the same info: I found the answer from PDFTron, and had
nothing to do with iText - just a setting in the pdf-to-image conversion
command ("--transparent_page", for those in similar need). 

 

Thanks to all who helped.

Subject: [iText-questions] Transparent background for whole pdf

 

Maybe this is something obvious that I am overlooking, or maybe not possible
- is there a way to set the pdf file's background to be transparent? IT is
white be default, as far as I can tell. I use a component by PDFTron to
render the pdf out to an image, and I want to be able to render to a PNG
with transparency. 

Apparently their PDFNet SDK has such an option, which makes me think it must
be possible, but I am using iText (well, iTextSharp) and not sure how to do
this. Any advice?

 

Thanks, 

Ian
