<pre lang="c#"> {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(SourcePdfPath, new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding().GetBytes(Password));
IList<Dictionary<string, object>> bookmarks = SimpleBookmark.GetBookmark(reader);
using (MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream())
{
SimpleBookmark.ExportToXML(bookmarks, memoryStream, "ISO8859-1", true);
//MessageBox.Show(bookmarks[0].Values.ToString());

Recommented solution is:

What you can do right now is to create a function that returns a hashtable or a dictionary with the file names (string) being the keys and the pages to extract (integer array) being the values. Once you have this hashtable/dictionary, you can modify the ExtractPdfPage sub such that it will create a single new pdf file and then loop trhu the hashtable/dictionary to extract the pages and add them o the output pdf. It's just a matter of setting up the loop right such that in each loop, you read an entry and extract pages from that file.
