Hi there...
Well i'm a new bie exploring VB.NET. Was just looking the possibility of converting a MS Word doc into PDF using VB.NET. Would it be all rite to do it using on pure codes without third party software's. Appreciate the snippets if there is. Thx
I would assume you need something from Adobe as PDFs are their Proprietary format.
Actualy it's not all that proprietary as OpenOffice.org Writer does export to PDF. Also Component One has an OCX/.NET control that will convert data into a PDF.
As for doing it solely out of code, that's beyond me. You would need to know exactly how to write out the data....
Now that I think about it, it shouldn't be all that difficult. I've got a PHP script that can do the same to HTML..... wonder if there is a way to convert it....

well i've tried to convert a sample written in plain VB 6 but it doesn't run exactly. I was wondering the need to use third party software. If it is so...how do i go about using them. Maybe code the conversion would be a complex process. Grateful for da immediate help...
You do realize this thread you just resurrected is from 2004???Quote:
