Hi Martin,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion PDF.

Calculating File creation/closing Time

We can calculate file creation and its closing time using DateTime class. Here is the sample code snippet to calculate the time creation time,

Dim FileCreationTime As DateTime = DateTime.Now
'Create a new PDF Document. The pdfDoc object represents the PDF document.
Dim pdfDoc As PDFDocument = New PDFDocument()
'Save the PDF Document to disk.
pdfDoc.Save("Sample.pdf")
Dim endTime As DateTime = DateTime.Now
' File creation Time.
Dim time As TimeSpan = endTime.Subtract(FileCreationTime)

Please do find the sample which demonstrates the above mentioned feature and let me know if this helps,
