Changing .Doc into .pdf

Hi,

does anyone know of a way to change a word-document into a pdf-file while
uploading the file to the website?

We've created these word-documents and we changed them into pdf-files before
we uploaded them to the website.

Now my boss has told the client that it was possible to upload a
word-document and that the website would make a pdf-file of that document.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks in advance.

Buy a PDF component that can do this for you. There's no built-in
function in the .NET Framework.

..NET framework doesn't have any such feature. There may be some 3rd party
components that support this conversion programmatically.

Hi,

You can also use ActivePDF. This is a good component to convert HTML/DOC into PDF on web server.

I guess your boss would have the answer to that then! ; )

Personally, I like the activepdf products ...
