How can I convert a PDF file to HTML, Word, Excel and Image file ?

[rizwanrajput]

I am using C# 2.0 and developing an application to convert a PDF file into HTML, Word, Excel and Image (GIF,JPEG,PNG,TIFF). Is there any free library / class available for that?

Hi!
You can use "PDF Focus .Net" for this. Library allows to convert PDF to images and PDF to RTF. RTF you can open then easely in MS Word!
But the library not supports PDF to HTML convering. PDF Focus full version is not for free, but you can use trial version without restrictions by pages also with trial text.

Sample code for you:
Convert PDF to Image (GIF,JPEG,PNG,TIFF) in C#:

            SautinSoft.PdfFocus f = new SautinSoft.PdfFocus();
 
            f.OpenPdf(@"d:\Fairy tale.pdf");
 
            if (f.PageCount > 0)
            {
                //Save 1st page to gif files, 120 dpi
                //Set desired image format: GIF,JPEG,PNG,TIFF
                f.ImageOptions.ImageFormat = System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Gif;
                f.ImageOptions.Dpi = 120;
                f.ToImage(@"d:\page1.gif", 1);
            }
