Hi,

I'm having problems extracting TOC from PDF file. In my OnCreate method I'm trying to get outlines by using following code:

float top = document.GetPageHeight(0);
boolean ret = document.NewRootOutline("Root", 0, top);
if(ret)
{
Document.Outline ol = document.GetOutlines();
ol.AddChild("Child1", 0, top * 5 / 6);
Document.Outline ol1 = ol.GetChild();
ol1.AddNext("Child2", 0, top / 2);
}

Problem is that variable ret is always returning null... Do you have any suggestion how to solve this problem? Btw, I have professional licence.

Hi,
the problem is that in the onCreate() of the demo project the document is not yet open.
If you try your code after the PDFOpen() method it should return true and work properly.

Hi,
I tried to call it after PDFOpen() method, didn't work. Also, I tried to call it onButtonClick after PDF has opened, didn't work. Problem is always the same, document.NewRootOutline is returning false... Tried it on 3.4 and 3.5beta8 versions. Do you maybe have any other suggestions how to solve this?

P.S. PDF I'm testing on is showing TOC perfectly on iOS.

Hi,
to use this method you need a Premium License.

Hi,

is there any other option to get TOC with professional licence? In iOS there is method rootOutline, does something similar exist on Android?

Hi,
with your license you can read table of contents using these getters methods: www.radaeepdf.com/documentation/javadocs...ocument.Outline.html

With a Premium license you can manipulate the TOC: www.radaeepdf.com/ecommerce/technical-specification
