Hi all,

Does anyone know that there is PDF conversion component from MS word
for ASP.NET?
I know that there are a number of commecial PDF conversion programs
but I just wonder if there are free components out there?

Thanks in advance.

Do you mean e.g. that someone will upload a Word document to an ASP.NET
site, and that site will convert it to a PDF document?

If so, then you need this:

Hi Mark, thanks for your reply.
First of all, I am looking for FREE components. I know a lot of
commecial ones like aspose and ABCPDF etc. But I would like to see if
there are free components out there.
Secondly, what I am trying to do is that I have a console application
where reporting services reports are called via webservices and get
report results in byte formate and then I would like to convert that
byte formate into PDF file.

Thanks a lot,

Toby

In my experience, you (don't) get what you (don't) pay for...

There are a number of free PDF print drivers. This means you can "print" a
Word document to a PDF file. As I recall,
"DoPDF" is one of them.

How would you do that without server-side Office automation...?
