OutputOptions Class

The parameters to encrypt output PDFs

If , no encryption is used.

Encryption is not allowed by the PDF/A ISO standards. For that reason, it is recommended to use when processing PDF/A documents. Otherwise, most operations will remove PDF/A conformance from the output document. More details can be found in the documentation of the operation.

Default: , no encryption is used.

Whether to linearize the output document

If , the output document is written in a linearized form ("Fast Web View"), so that a conforming viewer can display the first page before the entire file has been loaded.

Note: This property is applied by operations that write the output PDF, such as Assemble, OptimizeDocument(Document, Stream, Profile, OutputOptions) and Convert(AnalysisResult, Document, Stream, ConversionOptions, OutputOptions). The signing operations of Signer apply it where supported, but not when existing signatures must be preserved: such documents are signed using an incremental update, which is incompatible with linearization. The property has no effect for other operations, such as image-to-PDF conversion (Converter) and optical character recognition (Processor).

Default:
