Convert Word Doc to PostScript in C#

[Johnny]

Hi,

I want to take a word document and convert it to a
postscript file in both a windows app or ASP.NET app.
I've read that someone have done this in this newsgroup,
but I have not been able to find it. From what I know, I
need to utilize the Word COM/Interop to do this. Is this
right, or is there a free tool that already does this

Thanks

Johnny,

I don't know that word has the capability to do this. If it does, then
you will be able to access it through COM interop, accessing the word object
model directly.

However, you might have to resort to a third party dll, which might be a
COM object, and access that through COM interop.

Hope this helps.

Hi Johnny,

There's a long host of free and nearly free tools that allow Word documents
to be converted to PDF. I like CutePDF myself, but there are plenty of
others. In addition. They mostly run as printer drivers on the client
system.

Hope this helps,
