Syncfusion.Maui.PdfToImageConverter constructor does not support password

[Optimilia]

I am using Syncfusion.Maui.PdfToImageConverter nuget v30.1.37.0, but there is no constructor that takes password as input.

Whereas in the documentation, there is a constructor with password.

Class PdfToImageConverter - MAUI API Reference | Syncfusion

Can you plz check if there is a miss, and how do I use PdfToImageConverter with password protected file?

Hi Optimilia,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

We understand you're using the Syncfusion.Maui.PdfToImageConverter NuGet package (v30.1.37.0) and are unable to locate a constructor that accepts a password, despite it being mentioned in the documentation.

We’d like to clarify that the constructor:

public PdfToImageConverter(Stream inputStream, string password) is supported.

To assist you further, we kindly request the following:

• A simplified sample of your implementation.
• Details about your target platform(s).
• Confirmation that you're referencing the correct NuGet package: Syncfusion.Maui.PdfToImageConverter.

This will help us reproduce the issue and provide a more accurate resolution.

Regards,

Thanks for your response, I have attached a simplified sample where I am trying to use Syncfusion.Maui.PdfToImageConverter nuget to convert Pdf to image on a password protected pdf file.

Note - The project will not build due to this statement 

It's a .net MAUI 9 project targeting Android platform.

PdfToImageConverter imageConverter = new PdfToImageConverter(memoryStream, "password");

Hi Optimilia,

Upon further analysis of the reported issue, we have identified that the password-protected PDF loading functionality is currently not supported on Android using the existing overload. After deeper investigation, we found that Android API level 35 (Android 14) introduces support for password-protected PDFs via the LoadParams class in the PdfRenderer API.

As this feature is only available on devices running Android 14 or higher, we will implement appropriate handling on our end to ensure compatibility across different Android versions. For devices below API level 35, we will either provide a fallback mechanism or gracefully notify users of the limitation.

We confirmed the issue "Exposing the Password overload in PdfToImageConverter on the Android platform" as a defect in our product and we will include the fix into our upcoming weekly NuGet release, which will be available on (29/07/2025)
