Hi Gustavo,  
   
Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support.  
   
Our SFDT format is support only by DocumentEditor control for importing and exporting documents. And, we don’t have direct support for converting SFDT in to PDF document.  
   
Instead, we have support for exporting SFDT as Word document(as blob stream) by using `saveAsBlob` which is demonstrated in below documentation link  
   
   
And the exported word document can be converted it to PDF by using Syncfusion.DocToPDFConverter library in server side.  
   
For your convenience, we have prepared as sample to covert word document exported for DocumentEditor in to PDF and save the PDF document in 'App_Data' folder in web server. You can customize this option to save the PDF document in database.  
   
   
   
Please find the sample from below link.

Hi,
So sorry but would you have some other example in php?


RT Ramya Thirugnanam Syncfusion Team April 2, 2019 05:40 AM

Hi Gustavo, 
We have our server-side library in .Net Core(Syncfusion.EJ2.WordEditor.AspNet.Core) and .Net framework(Syncfusion.EJ2.WordEditor.AspNet.Mvc5Syncfusion.EJ2.WordEditor.AspNet.Mvc4) alone. So, currently we are unable to provide you the sample in php.  
 
So, for your convenience we have prepared a sample in ASP.NET Core MVC project and .Net core has cross platform support. So, you can run this project in all major operation systems(windows/linux/mac). Please find more detail about .NET Core from below link  
 
 
You can also run this project through terminal (CLI). Please find more details about how to install and run .Net Core project from following link    
 
   
Please find the commands to run the sample below. 
 
// To restore dependent packages    
> dotnet restore    
   
// To run the sample   
> dotnet run   
    
    
 Please find Web API project from following link.    
   
 
Regards,

Is it possible to convert data to Docx file in the backend itself?

How can I convert SFDT data (JSON) into a PDF on the backend, particularly in node.js?



SM Suriya Murugan Syncfusion Team July 26, 2022 06:32 AM

Hi Jeet,


We are sorry to say that, we dont have support for nodejs backend and we are requesting to use the AS.NET core or MVC api in order to convert a SFDT to pdf.


Please check below documentation
