ASP Sample

ASP Setup:

1. Prepare a Word document and an ASP script. Copy the files into the IIS Scripts working folder (e.g., "C:\Inetpub\Scripts").
   
   
   
   
2. Write a test script. Shown below is an example script.
   
   Note: To access easyPDF SDK enumeration types from ASP (not needed for ASP.NET), create the Global.asa file in the root folder (e.g., "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot"), and declare the type library as following:

   <!-- METADATA TYPE="TypeLib" NAME="BCL easyPDF Printer SDK 6 Type Library" UUID="{3E8253B7-B37A-4926-B807-2426E3ACB90E}" VERSION="6.0" --> <!-- METADATA TYPE="TypeLib" NAME="BCL easyPDF PDF Processor SDK 6 Type Library" UUID="{E1A2691E-2081-4b19-B89A-BB8CF680E991}" VERSION="6.0" --> <!-- METADATA TYPE="TypeLib" NAME="BCL easyPDF PDF Converter SDK 6 Type Library" UUID="{32CD0069-0F92-4e45-AB0E-D6A0E6167C1F}" VERSION="6.0" --> <!-- METADATA TYPE="TypeLib" NAME="BCL easyPDF PDF Document SDK 6 Type Library" UUID="{4CF55C9B-CF47-4766-99EC-F7B6B0BB8926}" VERSION="6.0" -->

   ASP Example 1 (VBScript):

   <%@ Language=VBScript %>
   <%
   Option Explicit
   
   Dim oLoader
   Dim oPrinter
   Dim oPrintJob
   
   ' For ASP, instead of getting the Printer object directly,
   ' get it through the easyPDF SDK Loader object.
   Set oLoader = Server.CreateObject("easyPDF.Loader.6")
   
   Set oPrinter = oLoader.LoadObject("easyPDF.Printer.6")
   Set oPrintJob = oPrinter.PrintJob
   
   On Error Resume Next
   
   ' Convert to PDF.
   Call oPrintJob.PrintOut(Server.MapPath("./input.doc"), Server.MapPath("./output.doc.pdf"))
   
   If Err Then
       Response.Write("<B>Failed!</B> " + Err.Description + "<BR>")
       Response.Write("Conversion Result: " + oPrintJob.ConversionResultMessage + "<BR>")
       Response.Write("Printer Result: " + oPrintJob.PrinterResultMessage + "<BR>")
       Response.End
   End If
   
   Response.Write("<B>Success!</B><BR>")
   %>
   

   ASP Example 2 (VBScript):

   <%@ Language=VBScript %>
   <%
   Option Explicit
   
   Dim oLoader
   Dim oPrinter
   Dim oPrintJob
   Dim arrPDF
   
   ' For ASP, instead of getting the Printer object directly,
   ' get it through the easyPDF SDK Loader object.
   Set oLoader = Server.CreateObject("easyPDF.Loader.6")
   
   Set oPrinter = oLoader.LoadObject("easyPDF.Printer.6")
   Set oPrintJob = oPrinter.PrintJob
   
   On Error Resume Next
   
   ' Get output PDF in memory (VT_ARRAY | VT_UI1).
   arrPDF = oPrintJob.PrintOut2(Server.MapPath("./input.doc"))
   
   If Err Then
       Response.Write("<B>Failed!</B> " + Err.Description + "<BR>")
       Response.Write("Conversion Result: " + oPrintJob.ConversionResultMessage + "<BR>")
       Response.Write("Printer Result: " + oPrintJob.PrinterResultMessage + "<BR>")
       Response.End
   End If
   
   On Error Goto 0
   
   ' Push the PDF file into browser.
   Response.Clear
   Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
   Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=output.pdf"
   Response.Buffer = True
   Response.BinaryWrite arrPDF
   Response.End
   %>
   

   ASP.NET Example (C# code snippet):

   // You need to add easyPDF SDK COM objects into your application.
   // From your project, go to "Project" -> "Add Reference..." menu
   // to bring up the Add Reference dialog, click the COM tab, and
   // then select all easyPDF SDK objects you will be using.
   
   using BCL.easyPDF.Interop.easyPDFLoader;
   using BCL.easyPDF.Interop.easyPDFPrinter;
   
   // ...
   
   Loader oLoader = null;
   Printer oPrinter = null;
   PrintJob oPrintJob = null;
   
   try
   {
       // For ASP.NET, instead of getting the Printer object directly,
       // get it through the easyPDF SDK Loader object.
       Type type = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("easyPDF.Loader.6");
       oLoader = (Loader)Activator.CreateInstance(type);
   
       oPrinter = (Printer)oLoader.LoadObject("easyPDF.Printer.6");
       oPrintJob = oPrinter.PrintJob;
   
       // Convert to PDF.
       oPrintJob.PrintOut(Server.MapPath("./input.doc"), Server.MapPath("./output.doc.pdf"));
   
       Response.Write("<B>Success!</B>");
   }
   catch(System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException err)
   {
       // Error handling code.
   
       Response.Write("<B>Failed!</B> " + err.Message + "<BR>");
   
       if(err.ErrorCode == (int)prnResult.PRN_R_CONVERSION_FAILED
       && oPrintJob != null)
       {
           Response.Write("Conversion Result: " + oPrintJob.ConversionResultMessage);
   
           prnConversionResult result = oPrintJob.ConversionResult;
   
           if(result == prnConversionResult.PRN_CR_CONVERSION
           || result == prnConversionResult.PRN_CR_CONVERSION_INIT
           || result == prnConversionResult.PRN_CR_CONVERSION_PRINT)
           {
               Response.Write("Printer Result: " + oPrintJob.PrinterResultMessage);
           }
       }
   }
   

3. Make sure to have input.doc in the current IIS working folder (e.g., "C:\Inetpub\Scripts").
4. Run it in web browser (e.g., http://localhost/scripts/pdftest.asp).
