Property Value

A PDFCompatibilityLevel that specifies the PDF compatibility level (version) to use when this PDFFile is used to update or create a PDF file. Default value is PDFCompatibilityLevel.Default.

Remarks

The following methods of the PDFFile class will use the level set in CompatibilityLevel when updating or creating a PDF file:

Similar to the DocumentProperties property, the value of CompatibilityLevel will not be modified when a PDF file is loaded in this object using the Load method. To get the version of a PDF file, use the PDFFile.GetPDFFileType method.
