Methods

Signature	Description
`PageCount()` → `int`	PageCount returns the number of pages in the document.
`Pages()` → `[]*Page`	Pages returns a live view of all pages in the document.
`Page(n: int)` → `(*Page, error)`	Page returns a live view of the page at the given 1-based number.
`Append(others: ...*Document)`	Append adds all pages from others to this document, merging their objects.
`RemoveUnusedObjects()` → `int`	RemoveUnusedObjects removes objects from the document that are not reachable from any page.
`SetPassword(userPassword: string)`	SetPassword configures the document to be encrypted when saved.
`SetPermissions(p: Permissions)`	SetPermissions configures what operations a viewer allows on the encrypted document (printing, copying, modifying, etc.).
`Permissions()` → `(Permissions, bool)`	Permissions returns the viewer-permission settings currently configured on this document, plus a boolean indicating whether the document is configured for encryption at all.
`RemoveEncryption()`	RemoveEncryption clears any previously configured encryption (passwords and permissions) so the next Save produces a plaintext PDF.
`ChangePassword(newUserPassword: string)` → `error`	ChangePassword re-encrypts the document with new passwords on the next Save, keeping the current encryption algorithm and permissions.
`SetEncryption(opts: EncryptionOptions)`	SetEncryption configures every encryption-related setting at once from an EncryptionOptions struct.
`WriteTo(w: io.Writer)` → `(int64, error)`	WriteTo writes the document to w.
`Save(outputPath: string)` → `error`	Save writes the document to outputPath.
`AddBlankPage(width: float64)` → `error`	AddBlankPage appends a blank page to the end of the document.
`AddBlankPageFromFormat(format: PageFormat)` → `error`	AddBlankPageFromFormat appends a blank page using a predefined page format.
`InsertBlankPage(position: int, width: float64)` → `error`	InsertBlankPage inserts a blank page at the given 1-based position.
`InsertBlankPageFromFormat(position: int, format: PageFormat)` → `error`	InsertBlankPageFromFormat inserts a blank page at the given position using a predefined page format.
`Rotate(angle: RotationAngle, pageNums: ...int)` → `error`	Rotate rotates selected pages clockwise by angle (Rotate90, Rotate180, or Rotate270).
`SetRotation(angle: RotationAngle, pageNums: ...int)` → `error`	SetRotation sets selected pages to exactly angle (Rotate0, Rotate90, Rotate180, or Rotate270), replacing any existing rotation.
`Reorder(order: []int)` → `error`	Reorder rearranges pages according to order, a slice of 1-based page numbers.
`DeletePage(n: int)` → `error`	DeletePage removes the page at the given 1-based number.
`DeletePages(pageNums: ...int)` → `error`	DeletePages removes the pages at the given 1-based page numbers.
`Split()` → `([]*Document, error)`	Split returns each page of the document as a separate *Document.
`Extract(ranges: ...PageRange)` → `(*Document, error)`	Extract returns a new Document containing only the pages in the specified ranges.
`Flatten()` → `error`	Flatten bakes the document’s interactive form fields into static page content and removes the AcroForm, so the result renders identically but is no longer fillable.
`LoadFont(path: string)` → `(Font, error)`	LoadFont reads a TTF file, parses it, embeds it into the document, and returns a Font that can be used in TextStyle.Font.
`LoadFontFromStream(r: io.Reader)` → `(Font, error)`	LoadFontFromStream is like LoadFont but reads from an io.Reader.
`LoadFontByName(family: string, bold: bool)` → `(Font, error)`	LoadFontByName resolves a font by family name (with an optional bold / italic style) through the FontRepository — the folders and files registered with AddFontFolder / AddFontFile first, then the operating system’s font directories — embeds the matched face into the document, and returns a Font usable in TextStyle.Font.
`SubsetFonts()` → `(int, error)`	SubsetFonts shrinks every embedded TTF (loaded via LoadFont) to only the glyphs actually drawn, replacing each /FontFile2 with a rebuilt subset program and switching the CIDFont’s /CIDToGIDMap from /Identity to a stream that maps the original glyph IDs (still used verbatim as CIDs in content streams) to the compact subset glyph IDs.
`Form()` → `*Form`	Form returns the document’s AcroForm.
`ExtractImages()` → `([][]Image, error)`	ExtractImages returns images from all pages (one slice per page).
`ImageInfos()` → `([][]ImageInfo, error)`	ImageInfos returns image metadata for all pages (one slice per page) without decoding pixel data.
`OptimizeImages(opts: OptimizeImageOptions)` → `(int, error)`	OptimizeImages optimizes all images in the document to reduce file size.
`NUp(opts: NUpOptions)` → `(*Document, error)`	NUp returns a new Document that imposes this document’s pages onto larger sheets in a Rows×Cols grid (e.g.
`Booklet(opts: BookletOptions)` → `(*Document, error)`	Booklet returns a new Document that imposes this document’s pages two-up, reordered for saddle-stitch binding: print double-sided, fold the stack in half, and the pages read in order.
`JavaScript()` → `*JavaScriptCollection`	JavaScript returns the document-level JavaScript collection.
`Info()` → `(DocumentInfo, error)`	Info returns the Info-dictionary metadata from this document.
`SetInfo(info: DocumentInfo)`	SetInfo replaces the document’s Info dictionary with the given metadata.
`ClearInfo()`	ClearInfo removes the Info dictionary entirely.
`NamedDestinations()` → `*NamedDestinations`	NamedDestinations returns the document’s named-destination collection.
`OpenAction()` → `Action`	OpenAction returns the action the viewer runs when the document is opened (/Catalog/OpenAction per ISO 32000-1 §12.3.2 / §12.6.1), or nil when none is set.
`SetOpenAction(act: Action)`	SetOpenAction sets the action run when the document opens.
`RemoveOpenAction()`	RemoveOpenAction clears any /Catalog/OpenAction.
`Outlines()` → `*OutlineItemCollection`	Outlines returns the document’s root outline collection.
`SetPageLabels(ranges: []PageLabelRange)` → `error`	SetPageLabels installs the document’s /PageLabels number tree so PDF viewers display labels like “i, ii, 1, 2, …” in the navigation pane and page indicators.
`ClearPageLabels()`	ClearPageLabels removes the document’s /PageLabels entry.
`ValidateRedactions()` → `error`	ValidateRedactions performs a pre-flight dry-run parseability check on every page that has at least one RedactAnnotation.
`ApplyRedactions()` → `error`	ApplyRedactions destructively removes content (text glyphs, image XObjects, paths) inside every /Redact annotation’s /QuadPoints (or /Rect if /QuadPoints is empty).
`RenderImage(pageNum: int, opts: RenderOptions)` → `(image.Image, error)`	RenderImage renders the 1-based page number to an image.
`RenderTIFF(w: io.Writer, opts: RenderOptions, pageNums: ...int)` → `error`	RenderTIFF renders the document to a single multi-page TIFF written to w.
`ReplaceText(old: string, opts: ...ReplaceOptions)` → `(int, error)`	ReplaceText replaces every occurrence of old with replacement across all pages, returning the total number of replacements.
`Sign(opts: SignOptions)` → `error`	Sign configures a digital signature applied on the next Save/WriteTo.
`VerifySignatures()` → `([]SignatureVerification, error)`	VerifySignatures verifies every digital signature in the document and returns one result per signature field, in document order.
`AddStamp(s: Stamp, pageNums: ...int)` → `error`	AddStamp draws a stamp onto the given 1-based pages (all pages when none are given) — convenient for watermarks, headers, footers, and page numbers.
`LoadSVG(path: string)` → `(*SVG, error)`	LoadSVG reads and parses an SVG file once, returning a *SVG that can be passed to Page.AddSVGObject or Document.AddSVGObjectWatermark multiple times without re-parsing.
`LoadSVGFromStream(r: io.Reader)` → `(*SVG, error)`	LoadSVGFromStream is the io.Reader variant of LoadSVG.
`AddSVGWatermark(path: string, pageNums: ...int)` → `error`	AddSVGWatermark applies an SVG watermark to all pages (when pageNums is empty) or to the specified 1-based page numbers.
`AddSVGWatermarkFromStream(r: io.Reader, pageNums: ...int)` → `error`	AddSVGWatermarkFromStream is the io.Reader variant of AddSVGWatermark.
`SetSVGFontResolver(fn: SVGFontResolver)`	SetSVGFontResolver installs a custom resolver.
`AddSVGObjectWatermark(svg: *SVG, pageNums: ...int)` → `error`	AddSVGObjectWatermark uses a pre-parsed *SVG for the watermark content.
`ExtractText()` → `([]string, error)`	ExtractText returns the text content of each page.
`AddTextWatermark(text: string, style: TextStyle, pageNums: ...int)` → `error`	AddTextWatermark adds a text watermark to selected pages of the document.
`ExtractTextWithLayout()` → `([][]TextLine, error)`	ExtractTextWithLayout returns structured text lines for each page.
`SearchText(query: string, opts: ...SearchOptions)` → `([]TextMatch, error)`	SearchText finds every occurrence of query across all pages of the document, returning matches page by page in reading order.
`GenerateTOC(opts: ...TOCOptions)` → `(int, error)`	GenerateTOC builds a table of contents from the document’s outline (bookmark) tree and inserts it as new page(s) at the front of the document.
`XMP()` → `(XMPMetadata, error)`	XMP returns the document’s XMP metadata parsed from the /Catalog/Metadata stream.
`XMPRaw()` → `([]byte, error)`	XMPRaw returns the raw bytes of the XMP packet from /Catalog/Metadata, or nil when the document has no XMP stream.
`SetXMP(meta: XMPMetadata)` → `error`	SetXMP serialises meta into a standard XMP packet and stores it as the /Catalog/Metadata stream (uncompressed, /Type /Metadata /Subtype /XML per ISO 32000-1 §14.3.2).
`SetXMPRaw(data: []byte)` → `error`	SetXMPRaw stores data verbatim as the /Catalog/Metadata stream — an escape hatch for callers that produce their own XMP packet.
`ClearXMP()`	ClearXMP removes the /Catalog/Metadata entry.
`SyncInfoToXMP()` → `error`	SyncInfoToXMP builds an XMP packet from the document’s current /Info dictionary and installs it, so the two metadata stores agree (ISO 32000-1 §14.3.2 recommends consistency when both are present).
