Missing PdfSharp library reference in Xamarin iOS

I added the PdfSharp library via the Nuget Package Manager(so I do not have to manually add the project) and I can see the package has been successfully installed. However, when I try to reference the library, I get errors in my code on the following lines:

using PdfSharp;
using PdfSharp.Drawing;
using PdfSharp.Pdf;
using PdfSharp.Pdf.IO;

I then expanded the References folder and noticed that there's no reference to the PdfSharp library that had been added. I have tried deleting and adding the package several times but no changes.

Is this a Xamarin Studio thing?

Solution

  • To resolve this issue, I had to manually add the reference. So I clicked on References --> Edit References --> Browse --> navigated to the packages folder in the project file --> Look for the PdfSharp package file and select the PdfSharp.dll file. This reference will then be added into the project.
