Get Page Thumbnail

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello, 

I see that their is a SetPageThumbnail() function but I have not found a corresponding function to get a page thumbnail.  So, is there a mechanism to pull the existing page thumbnail or do we need to render the page? 

Thanks, 

Richard

	Hi Richard, We do not have a corresponding "Get" function for page thumbnails that would work like SetPageThumbnail. This is because these days most PDF files generated do not have thumbnails embedded in the PDF. Some viewers even ignore embedded thumbnails and render their own. I suggest to use one of the rendering functions to create your own low res page thumbnails. Cheers, - Rowan.
