THotPDF.MarkDirty

THotPDF

Marks an existing loaded PDF object for re-emission during an incremental update save.

Delphi syntax:

procedure MarkDirty(Obj: THPDFObject);

C++ syntax:

void __fastcall MarkDirty(THPDFObject *Obj);

Description

In incremental update mode, HotPDF automatically emits newly created indirect objects. Use MarkDirty only when an object loaded from the source PDF has been changed and must be written again in the appended xref section.

Passing nil has no effect. MarkDirty does not save the file by itself; finish the append-only write with SaveIncrementalUpdate.
