In case anyone needs the same info: I found the answer from PDFTron, and had nothing to do with iText – just a setting in the pdf-to-image conversion command (“--transparent_page”, for those in similar need).

Thanks to all who helped.

Subject: [iText-questions] Transparent background for whole pdf

Maybe this is something obvious that I am overlooking, or maybe not possible – is there a way to set the pdf file’s background to be transparent? IT is white be default, as far as I can tell. I use a component by PDFTron to render the pdf out to an image, and I want to be able to render to a PNG with transparency.

Apparently their PDFNet SDK has such an option, which makes me think it must be possible, but I am using iText (well, iTextSharp) and not sure how to do this. Any advice?

Thanks,

Ian
