Hello Tilutza,

Sorry to hear about your problem. Could you let me know what version of IvyPdf you are using?
I just tried opening it with 1.61.4 and it seems working fine. There were a few issue fixed recently, so I'm hoping this one has been fixed already. Could you please try it and confirm?

Thank you,

Hello! I am evaluating Ivy and it seems to work pretty well. However, I have a strange PDF which in Adobe Reader works. If I open in Ivy it gets' the error that "UglyToad.PdfPig.Core.PdfDocumentFormatException: 'Could not read the first token in the document at position 0.'".

Do you guys know why?
The code that reads PDF is the simplest one:


            PdfParser p = new PdfParser(IvyDocumentReader.ReadPdf(pdfFileName));
            var text = p.ExtractText();

            return p.Text;

The problematic PDF is at: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1malOKp5-M3ZKAXxdQ8mNal4mLpX24_iE

Hi Darrenforce,

Most likely it's caused by an issue with PDF annotations extraction. Would you be able to send me this PDF for a deeper look, assuming it's not confidential? (support@ivytools.net)

Meanwhile please try to uncheck "Read Annotations" in the Options page to see if it helps.

Thank you,
Andrew

This solved the issue

Thanks

After downloading the newest version 1.61.1 I am having the following error whenever I open some PDF files

Error: Could not find the Object 9 0 with type DictionaryToken

Could you advise what would be causing this.

Thanks

New in Version 1.61:

- Numerous fixes to the underlying PDF parsing engine.

+ Additional performance and stability improvements.

+ Basic support for extraction of PDF annotations (PDF forms, overlays and other content)

Hi Scourglass,

Could you please look for file license_error.txt in Ivy folder, it should contain detailed error message.

Please post the contents of this file so we could help you further.

Thank you,
Andrew

Need help
here is my code :

Code: [Select]

           
  if (IvyPdf.License.SetLicense("3b83lDwAqFPMRZRTnmhEXSZ8RHjIuWC2+aAh53eNTC84PATAHxBz3PwBIDAhhvOA4+5+XbQLoqX/4pDYbs7llg=="))
            {
                string folder = @"C:\Users\bodhi\Downloads\Compressed\IvyPdf_1.50\Sample\reports\Bureau Veritas\";
                PdfParser p = new PdfParser(IvyDocumentReader.ReadPdf(folder + "ICP067.pdf"));  // stop here
                string text = p.Find("Revenue").Find("Total").Right().Text;
            }
then the exception says "License Expired" , how do I renew my personal license?

Hi, thank you for the error report.

Could you please provide the version of IvyPdf that you are using?

Is it happening with one specific PDF or many files? If it's one PDF would you be able to share it, so I could take a deeper look? (support@ivytools.net)

Also, could you try the new version 1.60 please? It using a different way to read PDFs, not depending on IKVM anymore.

Thank you,
Andrew
