  • get_documentRetrieve metadata for a stored PDFGate document by its ID.
  • delete_documentDelete a PDFGate document.
  • flatten_pdfFlatten an interactive PDF into a static, non-editable PDF. Creates a new document; does not overwrite the original.

  • compress_pdfCompress/optimise a PDF to reduce file size without changing visual content.
  • protect_pdfEncrypt a PDF with a password and optional permission restrictions. Produces a new document; the original is unchanged.
  • watermark_pdfApply a text or image watermark to a PDF. For type='text' provide 'text'; for type='image' provide 'watermarkImagePath'.
  • download_fileDownload the raw PDF bytes of a stored document, returned as an embedded resource. For a shareable link instead, use get_document.

Recipients marked embedded sign inside your application via create_embed_link and receive no emails. Use signingOrder to make recipients sign in sequence. Returns an envelope in 'created' status; call send_envelope to dispatch signing emails.
