Hello,
I am trying to evaluate the Essential PDF component. I have a strange error at the line:
HtmlConverter html = new HtmlConverter();
When I attempt to build I get the following error:
The type 'System.Windows.Forms.UserControl' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'System.Windows.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.
I have read
http://www.syncfusion.com/support/forums/pdf-aspnet/45439 and have still not resolved the matter. I have added ALL of the Syncfusion DLLs to the application's bin directory and the error persists.
Thanks in advance for any help in the matter.
