The
Clone PDF operation replicates a PDF document. The resulting PDF document
can be manipulated independently of the input PDF document. If a given
PDF document is passed to multiple services without cloning, the
result may be difficult to use effectively.
For example, assume that a PDF document is passed to two services
sequentially. When the first service modifies and returns the PDF
document as a document value, the next service
to use the document value detects modifications
that the first service made.
After using the Clone PDF operation, you are assured that the
input document value and the result document value
are identical but distinct, and that any future modification of
either value will not be reflected in the other object.
For information about the General and Route Evaluation property
groups, see Common operation properties.
