hi
we are looking for a software that can convert on a server office
documents (via web services or other automated means) WITHOUT the use
of office itself, (it should handle hebrew documents) as office cannot
be used in a muliti-threaded enviorment .
the software should accept file via api which could later be
intergrated as web services.. or other synchronouse means...
i've heard a few recommendatiosn on activePDF however, from browsing
their web sites, they still use office behind the scense (claims of
"taming the beast" were brought forth).
3  2985 
As a counter to that; on 2 separate projects I have stress tested
activePDF, and on both occasions I have been very disappointed with
the performance compared to other products. However, on each occasion
I had the advantage that I could use alternative input formats, such
as HTML - eventually for opting for HTMLDOC in the first project (many
years ago), and ABCpdf.NET in the second.
Many of the office converters work via postscript (/pdf) printer
drivers, doing things like setting up ephemeral printers and using
Office Automation.
I've just checked, and ABCpdf.NET now offers Word support: http://www.websupergoo.com/helppdf6n...thods/read.htm
I haven't tried it, but why not download an eval copy and give it a
go?
Alternatively: does it *have* to be office?
Marc
additional: looks like Word support needs OpenOffice.org

Yes - activePDF would be no good for your requirements...

Hi all,
I have developed a windows service with Visual Basic .NET which starts
a file conversion tool via the commandline. The tool open the files
(z.B. Word, Excel, Acrobat...) and prints them over an image printer
driver to tiff-files. On my Windows XP client it works fine, but on
the target system (Windows 2003 Server) some issues occured:
My first release uses the framework process class to start the
application. As a standalone...

Hi,
We have a project that requires a .NET service to convert a Word document to
a PDF document. Basically, a person would create a mail merge template in
Word and through automation, we merge the data and spit out one or more PDF
documents. It appears that the best thing for me to do is get a product
that installs some type of printer driver. The problem is that the drivers
pop up a dialog box prompting for the destination file...

I just realized that the code I inherited is using all asp.net server

It seems to me that as I begin to write the client side javacript code for

I have a frameset page that contains two frames:
1. the first frame, an aspx page, contains a menu for navigating in the

clicks on one of the menu items.
However, from the server side I cannot control in which frame the content
will appears, it will always be in the menu frame...

Hi,
I'd like to know the cleanest approach to generating PDF files on a web
server. I am looking at converting multiple document types, but for
now I'd like to know about .doc files. Basically, the user would upload
their original file, and it would be handed back to them as a PDF.
Does MS Office need to be installed on the server? Is there a way to
do this without Office? Do I really need a third party component, or
is it possible...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
