SaveAs PDF

[David]

Additional questions from my post a couple days ago:

On PDF - is that a pretty solid release date? :)

On HTML - Once it is into PDF, can I save it to HTML from the PDF class?

I noticed in the Save as XML method the potential save types include another format besides Excel based XML (LDC I think?) - is there no way for me to use that stream to send it to your PDF product to do the conversion?

Hi David,

1) Excel to PDF functionality has been implemented internally and I can provide you with a preview version now. Can you please create a Direct-Trac incident regarding this so that I can provide you with a preview version? The conversion of Excel to PDF would take place in the following stages:

a) XlsIO reads the spreadsheet and serializes to an XML format.

workbook.SaveAsXml( "Sample.xml", ExcelXmlSaveType.DLS );

b) Its will be read by Essential PDF which produces the PDF file.

pdflDoc.OpenXml("Sample.xml");


2) On HTML - Currently it is not possible to save to HTML from the PDF class. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Regards,
Melba
