Represents a PDF DateTime type.
public struct PdfDateTime : IEquatable<PdfDateTime>The PDF Specification does not define a special type for DateTime values, such values are stored as strings in a special format, similar to (D:YYYYMMDDHHmmSSOHH'mm'), see the spec for details (PDF 1.7 chapter 3.8.3).
But there are many PDF documents in which DateTime strings are specified in some custom format, for example using a regional format. GcPdf uses this struct when processing such values. Where possible, the value is converted to DateTimeOffset, otherwise it preserves the original string value.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| PdfDateTime(IPdfString) | Initializes a new instance of the PdfDateTime struct using a IPdfString. The passed string is converted to DateTimeOffset if possible. |
| PdfDateTime(DateTime) | Initializes a new instance of the PdfDateTime struct using a DateTime value. |
| PdfDateTime(string) | Initializes a new instance of the PdfDateTime struct using a string. The passed string is converted to DateTimeOffset if possible. |
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| DateTimeOffset | Gets the DateTimeOffset value defined by this PdfDateTime. Throws an exception if this PdfDateTime is represented by an unparsed string. |
| DateTimeValue | Gets the DateTime value representing local time. Throws an exception if this PdfDateTime is represented by an unparsed string. |
| IsString | Gets a value indicating whether this PdfDateTime struct contains a string value which cannot be converted to DateTime. |
| Value | Gets the IPdfString representing the value of this PdfDateTime. |
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| DateTimeToPdfString(DateTime) | Converts a DateTime value to a string in PDF format as described in PDF 1.7 specification chapter 3.8.3. |
| DateTimeToPdfString(DateTimeOffset) | Converts a DateTimeOffset value to a string in PDF format as described in PDF 1.7 specification chapter 3.8.3. |
| Equals(PdfDateTime) | Checks whether this PdfDateTime is equal to another PdfDateTime. |
| Equals(object) | |
| GetHashCode() | |
| ToString() | |
| ToString(string) | Converts this PdfDateTime to string, using a specified format if the current struct holds a DateTime value. |
