There are two ways to control how many pages your PostScript (PS) document has with the Aspose.Page API. You can either specify the exact number of pages upfront or choose to create a single-page or multi-page document. However, to add pages one by one, you must use the OpenPage() and ClosePage() methods. PS documents can have pages of different sizes, so you can set the size you want with OpenPage(). By default, pages are A4 size. It's important to note that you can only manage pages in newly created PS documents, not existing ones.

On this page, we show you two options for adding pages to a PS file using Aspose.Page for C++. But first, you need to:

  • Get Aspose.Page for C++ API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy-to-use document manipulation and conversion C++ API.

  • Open the NuGet package manager, and search for Aspose.Page.Cpp and install. You may also use the following command from the Package Manager Console.
