static void Main()
{
// If using the Professional version, put your serial key below.
ComponentInfo.SetLicense("FREE-LIMITED-KEY");
using (var document = PdfDocument.Load("%InputFileName%"))
{
// Get viewer preferences specifying the way the document should be displayed on the screen.
var viewerPreferences = document.ViewerPreferences;
// Modify viewer preferences.
viewerPreferences.CenterWindow = false;
viewerPreferences.FitWindow = true;
viewerPreferences.HideMenubar = true;
viewerPreferences.HideToolbar = false;
viewerPreferences.NonFullScreenPageMode = PdfPageMode.FullScreen;
viewerPreferences.ViewArea = PdfPageBoundaryType.MediaBox;
document.Save("Viewer Preferences.pdf");
}
}
}
Imports GemBox.Pdf
Module Program
Sub Main()
' If using the Professional version, put your serial key below.
ComponentInfo.SetLicense("FREE-LIMITED-KEY")
