hey all,
is there any way to convert a given file (this could be of any type) in to a pdf file in .net or php?
eg: suppose there is a upload link to upload your file of any type(word,excel,autocad,images..) and once the upload button is clicked the uploaded file should be converted into a pdf.
i checked out fpdf.but according to my knowledge all file types cannot be converted.a module to plugin to the CMS would also be fine.
FPDF does support images. I know because I have used it recently.
If you are wanting a pure PHP solution, you can use the PHP COM functions along with Word or Excel on the server to open up those files then copy the data out.
If I were you though, I would use Google. Load the doc into Google Docs then export it as a new format with the API.
