Read more than one file


I am writing a pdf to word converter which works perfectly fine for me. But I want to be able to convert more than one file.

What happens now is that it read the first file and does the convert process.

public static void PdfToImage()
{
    try
    {
        Application application = null;
        application = new Application();
        var doc = application.Documents.Add();



        string path = @"C:\Users\Test\Desktop\pdfToWord\";
        foreach (string file in Directory.EnumerateFiles(path, "*.pdf"))
        {
            using (var document = PdfiumViewer.PdfDocument.Load(file))
            {
                int pagecount = document.PageCount;
                for (int index = 0; index < pagecount; index++)
                {
                    var image = document.Render(index, 200, 200, true);
                    image.Save(@"C:\Users\chnikos\Desktop\pdfToWord\output" + index.ToString("000") + ".png", ImageFormat.Png);
                    application.Selection.InlineShapes.AddPicture(@"C:\Users\chnikos\Desktop\pdfToWord\output" + index.ToString("000") + ".png");

                }
                string getFileName = file.Substring(file.LastIndexOf("\\"));
                string getFileWithoutExtras = Regex.Replace(getFileName, @"\\", "");
                string getFileWihtoutExtension = Regex.Replace(getFileWithoutExtras, @".pdf", "");

                string fileName = @"C:\Users\Test\Desktop\pdfToWord\" + getFileWihtoutExtension;
                doc.PageSetup.PaperSize = WdPaperSize.wdPaperA4;

                foreach (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.InlineShape inline in doc.InlineShapes)
                {

                    if (inline.Height > inline.Width)
                    {
                        inline.ScaleWidth = 250;
                        inline.ScaleHeight = 250;
                    }

                }
                doc.PageSetup.TopMargin = 28.29f;
                doc.PageSetup.LeftMargin = 28.29f;
                doc.PageSetup.RightMargin = 30.29f;
                doc.PageSetup.BottomMargin = 28.29f;

                application.ActiveDocument.SaveAs(fileName, WdSaveFormat.wdFormatDocument);
                doc.Close();
            }


        }

I thought that with my foreach that problem should not occur. And yes there are more than one pdf in this folder


Solution

  • The line

    var doc = application.Documents.Add();
    

    is outside the foreach loop. So you only create a single word document for all your *.pdf files.

    Move the above line inside the foreach loop to add a new word document for each *.pdf file.
