Resize a pdf in a workflow

Aaron Nepple

I have a workflow that retrieves a pdf from a remote site, creates a property report and merges them together into one pdf. Is there a way that I can resize one of the pages? As is, it comes in at about 20"x10" and I would like to fit it to 8.5x11.

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

  Hi Aaron,

   

  Merging PDFs is pretty trivial, however resizing them is a pretty advanced operation.  I'm afraid you would need to make a custom workflow activity to accomplish this.  Alternatively, you could do the initial resizing outside of the workflow, using something like the PDFsharp library, and then working with the resized PDF in the workflow:

  If you'd like a hand with this, please open a support case, and we would be happy to help you with this project!

   

  Thanks,
