gofpdi

Go Free PDF Document Importer

gofpdi allows you to import an existing PDF into a new PDF. The following PDF generation libraries are supported:

• gopdf

• gofpdf

Acknowledgments

This package’s code is derived from the fpdi library created by Jan Slabon. mrtsbt added support for reading a PDF from an io.ReadSeeker stream and also added support for using gofpdi concurrently. Asher Tuggle added support for reading PDFs that have split xref tables.

Examples
