# Add text fragment to new page
page.paragraphs.add(text_fragment)
# Save updated PDF
document.save("output.pdf")

Convert PDF Documents via Python API

Aspose.PDF for Python via .NET is a useful PDF generation API that allows software developers to covert PDF documents to numerous other supported file formats via Python API.

    output_pdf = DIR_OUTPUT + "convert_pdf_to_docx_options.docx"
    # Open PDF document
    document = ap.Document(input_pdf)

    save_options = ap.DocSaveOptions()
    save_options.format = ap.DocSaveOptions.DocFormat.DOC_X
    # Set the recognition mode as Flow
    save_options.mode = ap.DocSaveOptions.RecognitionMode.FLOW
    # Set the Horizontal proximity as 2.5
    save_options.relative_horizontal_proximity = 2.5
    # Enable the value to recognize bullets during conversion process
    save_options.recognize_bullets = True

    # Save the file into MS Word document format
    document.save(output_pdf, save_options)

Manage Pages & Attachments in PDFs via Python API

// The path to the documents directory.
string dataDir = RunExamples.GetDataDir_AsposePdf_Pages();

// Open document
Document pdfDocument = new Document(dataDir + "SplitToPages.pdf");

int pageCount = 1;

// Loop through all the pages
foreach (Page pdfPage in pdfDocument.Pages)
{
    Document newDocument = new Document();
    newDocument.Pages.Add(pdfPage);
    newDocument.Save(dataDir + "page_" + pageCount + "_out" + ".pdf");
    pageCount++;
}

Add & Manage PDF Annotations via Python

Annotation is a feature in PDF documents that allows users to add comments, notes, or other types of feedback to specific parts of the document. Annotations can be used for a variety of purposes, including collaboration, feedback, and review.

It supports features like adding, deleting and getting annotations from PDF documents with ease. There are many other types of annotations that you can add, and many other properties that you can set.

 
// Load input JPG file
String path = dataDir + "Aspose.jpg";

// Initialize new PDF document
Document doc = new Document();

// Add empty page in empty document
Page page = doc.Pages.Add();
Aspose.Pdf.Image image = new Aspose.Pdf.Image();
image.File = (path);

// Add image on a page
page.Paragraphs.Add(image);

// Save output PDF file
doc.Save(dataDir + "ImagetoPDF.pdf");
