Hi,

I want to convert html page to pdf in .Net.By HTML to PDF, I mean the
complete page, say - yahoodotcom should be printed as pdf. I want to
see the yahoo page in PDF as I see it in browser.

Basically I want to achieve similar to abcPDF component:
http://www.websupergoo.com/abcpdf-1.htm with .NET code.

I would really appreciate if anybody can help me in this.

Thanks
JM

You can check out these.

Remember, since html can go "wide", its not always just a simple conversion
process.

Aka, there is not set ... maximum width for html pages.

Thanks a lot for the quick response.

I went thru all the products listed on the page, but none of them
converts the HTML page image to PDF. I think this process is divided
into 2 parts:

1. Conversion of webpage to image.
2. Conversion of image to PDF.

For #1, there is code available at:
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/media/IECapture.asp . It converts webpage
to jpg image. I think if I find a way to convert jpg to PDF, that might
work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
JM
