[Massimo Giambona]

Operating system: Windows 10

Asp.Net Core - Framework: 2.1.1

NuGet

Syncfusion.DocIO.Net.Core: v16.3.0.29

Syncfusion.DocIORenderer.Net.Core: v16.3.0.29

I have this code

[HttpPost]

public IActionResult ToPdf(int id)

{

// _reportTemplate is the attacched file (simple word 2019 file)

// Loads document from stream.

FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(_reportTemplate, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.ReadWrite);

var document = new WordDocument(fileStream, FormatType.Docx);

//WordDocument document = new WordDocument(stream, FormatType.Automatic);

// Creates a new instance of DocIORenderer class.

DocIORenderer render2 = new DocIORenderer();

// Converts Word document into PDF document.

PdfDocument pdf = render2.ConvertToPDF(document);

MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();

// Save the PDF document.

pdf.Save(memoryStream);

render2.Dispose();

pdf.Close();

document.Close();

memoryStream.Position = 0;

return File(memoryStream, "application/pdf", $"Report_{id}.pdf");

}
