Separate PDF by pages in memory C# and .NET

Splitting PDF documents into separate pages is a common task in software development. In this article, we will look at how you can split PDF documents directly in memory, without saving intermediate files to disk, using the C# programming language and platform .NET with a component SautinSoft.Pdf from SautinSoft.

To complete the task, we will need the following steps:

  1. Add SautinSoft.Pdf from NuGet.
  2. Read PDF files into memory.
  3. Split the PDF document using MemoryStream, specifying the page number.
  4. Save the document to show the result.

Output result:

Splitting PDF documents in memory using C# and .NET is an efficient way to process PDF without having to work with the file system. The SautinSoft PDF library .Net provides a simple and powerful API for performing such tasks. Using the above code example, you can easily integrate PDF splitting functionality into your applications.
