HTML to PDF???

How do I convert a HTML page to a .PDF?

I have the iTextSharp.dll on my pc, don't know if that will have the functionality I need though.

I don't know if this is helpful but try,

Hello,

If you are talking about programmatically creating a PDF, then yes, iTextSharp is definitely what you are after. If you search these forums then you will find a number of examples of doing just what you are after.

This will do it, just add the reference to iTextSharp and modify the folder path as required

Code:

---

public void GeneratePDFDoc(string htmlText)
    {
          Document doc = new Document(PageSize.A4, 50, 50, 50, 50);

        PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream(Server.MapPath("FOLDERPATH").Trim()) +"/" +"FileName.pdf", FileMode.OpenOrCreate));
 
     
        doc.AddDocListener(writer);
        doc.Open();





// step 4: we Add some content

            //make an arraylist ....with STRINGREADER since its no IO reading file...
         
 

     
        List<IElement> htmlarraylist = iTextSharp.text.html.simpleparser.HTMLWorker.ParseToList(new StringReader(htmlText),null);
     
            //add the collection to the document
            for (int k = 0; k < htmlarraylist.Count; k++)
            {

                doc.Add((IElement)htmlarraylist[k]);
            }

           
            doc.Close();
   
    }

Nice sample!

The only slight change that I would make, personally, is if Document and PdfWriter implement IDisposable would be to wrap them both in a using/Using block.
