Hi,
Is it possible to call GetDocumentInfo from a stream? At the moment it seems that it is only possible to do this on an actual file, whereas in our usecase (chunked files stored) we have been able to do this using streams.
If this is not possible, is there an absolute requirement to use the document information? or can i just pass back basic information such as the page numbers, etc.?
I’m also not sure if you’re intending for your customers to make use of the showcases as-is but there are a number of critical security flaws in them. Please contact me privately and/or give me a pgp key for more info.
Thanks
Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for your inquiry.
We have forwarded your query to the product team for more details and solution, once we get any update from them we will inform you here.
Regarding your concerns showcases, it is the example application which make users understand the working of the API , also it is open source application so anybody can use it same as it is or modify it as per their requirements.

I thought as much re. the github project, but always good to make sure. Thanks for the quick reply. I’ve also noticed in the trial that calling GetDocumentInfo will also generate a file (fd.xml) in APP_DATA by default. Is there any way to change/specify the location of this file?
Thanks for the quick reply, and looking forward to hearing from the product team.
Cheers
