How to add Pages to PDF via Cloud Python SDK
To add Pages into PDF, we’ll use Aspose.PDF Cloud Python SDK. This Cloud SDK assists Python programmers in developing cloud-based PDF creator, annotator, editor, and converter apps using Python programming language via Aspose.PDF REST API. Simply create an account at Aspose for Cloud and get your application information. Once you have the App SID & key, you are ready to give the Aspose.PDF Cloud Python SDK. If the python package is hosted on Github, you can install directly from Github:
Installation from Github
pip install git+https://github.com/aspose-pdf-cloud/aspose-pdf-cloud-python.git
Package Manager Console Command
pip install asposepdfcloud
Steps to add Pages into PDF via Python SDK
Aspose.PDF Cloud developers can easily load & add pages to PDF in just a few lines of code.
- Install Python SDK
- Upload a PDF document to the Aspose Cloud server
- Download the processed PDF document from the Aspose Cloud server
- Add new page to end of the PDF document
