Engine.GetPageCount()

   When using Engine.Render(), followed by Engine.GetPageCount(), I am getting mixed results.
When the input file is XML and I use template to generate a PDF, the correct number of pages added to the merge context is returned. When the input file is PDF, 0 is returned, regardless of that file's length.

Any ideas?

	Hello, Try adding all your inputs to a DAL job. You should get the right page count. Also, if you pass null as input, you will get the page count of the last rendering operation. Regards, Gabi

	I'm still having problems. Could you explain what you mean by pass null as input? I tried the following: Engine eng = new Engine(); RenderingParameters param = new RenderingParameters(); param.MergeContextID = Engine.GetNewMergeContextID(); param.InputFormat = Engine.InputFormat.PDF; param.OutputFormat = Engine.OutputFormat.PDF; Stream inStm = new FileStream(@"C:\Docs\treason.pdf", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read); Stream outStm = new FileStream(@"C:\Dev\Ecrion\merge.pdf", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write); eng.Render(inStm, outStm, param); int pgCount = eng.GetPageCount(null, null);

	I'm having a similar problem where I get the following error when I do Engine eng = new Engine(); eng.Render(inFile, outFile, param); int pageCount = eng.GetPageCount(inFile, param); // OR pageCount = eng.GetPageCount(inFile, null); The error I get is: java.lang.Exception: Server exception occured: An unreachable code exception has occurred.
