SDK import tiff pages

I'm trying to import a TIF image as a native document. The entire document gets uploaded, but only the first page is viewable. In looking at the files, it seems that I need to break the original document into pages, and import each one separately. Is there a way to do this automatically? If not, what is the best way to identify the page breaks within the raw TIF data?

Here is the code I'm using:

Dim myImage As Byte() = File.ReadAllBytes(zFilename)
Dim myPageInfo As PageInfo = myDocumentInfo.AppendPage
Dim myPageStream As Stream = myPageInfo.WritePagePart(PagePart.Image, myImage.Length)
myPageStream.Write(myImage, 0, myImage.Length)
myPageStream.Dispose()
myPageInfo.Save()

I think `DocumentImport.ImportImages()` will do what you want.

The DocumentImporter class should be able to handle all of that for you.

I'm using DocumentImporter to import Electronic Documents. However, the user needs for TIFF to be imported as Native documents, so that they can make use of the built-in viewer, annotation, etc.

@████████that is what I was looking for! I'd been using DocumentImporter.ImportEdoc for non-native documents, but it was the ImportImages for native documents that I was missing. I had found that chunk of code I was using in another topic here, and that lead me down the wrong road.

Thanks for the assistance!
