Pages are NOT self-contained entities. They only exist in the context of its
parent PDF.

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] Write PDF page to database BLOB column
Alexis,
Thought of that, but I did not know if there would be a better way.
It would be great if I could get the PdfImportedPage as a byte array
and then store that byte array into the blob. From that point I can
create a new PDF and pull rows of blobs as byte arrays and set them
into a new PdfImportedPage's.
Thanks,
Scott
