Code samples
Start using the Pdftools SDK library for advanced PDF manipulation, optimization, and validation tasks with code samples in Java, .NET, C, and Python.
info
Select a code sample in a specific language and download it. The code samples illustrate how to integrate the SDK into your projects for specific use cases. Each code sample includes a README file that gives instructions on how to run the code sample to process one or multiple files.
tip
Learn more about the Pdftools SDK:
- Compress and optimize a PDF document
- Convert documents
- Merge and split PDF documents
- Sign and certify PDF documents
- Validate a PDF document
