Example-AddPagePS1.cs

// Add page to PS document.
// Learn more: https://docs.aspose.com/page/net/ps/working-with-pages/

string outputFileName = "document1_out.ps";

//Create save options with A4 size
PsSaveOptions options = new PsSaveOptions();
options.Debug = true;

// Create new 2-paged PS Document
PsDocument document = new PsDocument(OutputDir + outputFileName, options, 2);

//Add the first page
document.OpenPage();

//Add content

//Close the first page
document.ClosePage();

//Add the second page with different size
document.OpenPage(400, 700);

//Add content

//Close the second page
document.ClosePage();

//Save the document
document.Save();

Example-AddPagePS2.cs

// Another way to add page to PS document.
// Learn more: https://docs.aspose.com/page/net/ps/working-with-pages/

string outputFileName = "document2_out.ps";

//Create save options with A4 size
PsSaveOptions options = new PsSaveOptions();

//Set variable that indicates if resulting PostScript document will be multipaged
bool multiPaged = true;

// Create new multipaged PS Document with one page opened
PsDocument document = new PsDocument(OutputDir + outputFileName, options, multiPaged);

//Add content

//Close the first page
document.ClosePage();

//Add the second page with different size
document.OpenPage(500, 300);

//Add content

//Close the second page
document.ClosePage();

//Save the document
document.Save();

Example-CreatePSDocumentMultipaged.cs

// Create new multipaged PS document from scratch.
// Learn more: https://docs.aspose.com/page/net/ps/working-with-document/

string outputFileName = "document_out.ps";

//Create save options
PsSaveOptions options = new PsSaveOptions();
//If you want to aassign page size other than A4, set page size in options
options.PageSize = PageConstants.GetSize(PageConstants.SIZE_A4, PageConstants.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
//If you want to aassign page margins other empty, set page margins in options
options.Margins = PageConstants.GetMargins(PageConstants.MARGINS_ZERO);
//If you plan to use fonts that located in non system folders, set additional fonts folders in options
options.AdditionalFontsFolders = new string[] { DataDir };

//Set variable that indicates if resulting PostScript document will be multipaged
bool multiPaged = false;

// Create new multipaged PS Document with one page opened
PsDocument document = new PsDocument(OutputDir + outputFileName, options, multiPaged);

//Close current page
document.ClosePage();
//Save the document
document.Save();

Example-CreatePSDocumentNumberOfPages.cs

// Create new PS document with defined number of pages.
// Learn more: https://docs.aspose.com/page/net/ps/working-with-document/

string outputFileName = "document_out.ps";

//Create save options
PsSaveOptions options = new PsSaveOptions();
//If you want to aassign page size other than A4, set page size in options
options.PageSize = PageConstants.GetSize(PageConstants.SIZE_A4, PageConstants.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
//If you want to aassign page margins other empty, set page margins in options
options.Margins = PageConstants.GetMargins(PageConstants.MARGINS_ZERO);
//If you plan to use fonts that located in non system folders, set additional fonts folders in options
options.AdditionalFontsFolders = new string[] { DataDir };

// Create new multipaged PS Document with 2 pages. These two pages are not created. It must be added by OpenPage() method.
PsDocument document = new PsDocument(OutputDir + outputFileName, options, 2);

//Add the first page
document.OpenPage();
//Close current page
document.ClosePage();
//Save the document
document.Save();
