Send PDF Files as Binary Strings

,

Introduction

In this article, I am going to explain to you how we can use the power of MuleSoft to send PDF files from Experience API to Process/System API, using the multipart/form-data type, and to covert it back to PDF file in the second API.

Use Case

We are going to read the PDF file from the local disk using Mule’s out-of-the-box (OOTB) File connector to read in Experience API. Then we will be sending this PDF as binary with some other fields to another API (this can be named as Process API) which accepts data as multipart/form-data. Next, we will extract this PDF binary from the received payload and convert it back to PDF and save the file to the local disk using Mule’s OOTB File connector to write.

How to Optimize a PDF in Java

,

As we have discussed before, the PDF is the ideal file format for saving, sharing, and protecting documents, both small and large. Its high compatibility with most Operating Systems makes it popular amongst most users for sharing information with different parties. Furthermore, it provides a more static platform for working with important documents like contracts and manuals, as steps can be taken to prevent any unwanted access or editing to the file. 

With large and highly complex files like this, however, different systems may have difficulty uploading, downloading, and reading the formatting for your document. This can lead to file corruption or increased loading times that can halt productivity. Thus, streamlining large PDF files can greatly benefit organizations that regularly use this format in day-to-day operations.
