Re-arrange Images Before Saving as PDF

I have several documents each made up of several pages. Each page has a QR Code on it to identify the page number and in which document it belongs. The pages are a all shuffled up, no order what-so-ever. I want to scan all the pages from a document feeder at one time then using the QR Codes sort the pages into their proper documents and page orders. Then save each multi-page document as a separate PDF file.

The scanning and sorting is easy. I am having trouble moving pages between PDF files. I do not want to purchase another 3rd party .NET tool to work with PDFs.

1. Is there a way scan all the pages into one AcquiredImages collection then move them around other AcquiredImages collections then save each collection as a PDF?
2. Can I put and image (i.e. bitmap) into a new empty AcquiredImages collection or does it have to come from the scanner?

Any other ideas would be appreciated as well.



Thanks,
Kevin

Hello Kevin,

Instance of the AcquiredImageCollection class linked with device and stores images acquired from device.

SDK does not allow to save all acquired images at once, you need save images one by one.

In your case you can determine order of images and save images one by one.

Best regards, Alexander

Thanks! That'll work, I feel a bit silly now for asking. I got caught up in storing the images first then sorting them. No reason not to organize them as they come.
