html to pdf converter

[satimis]

Hi folks,

FC3

I'm looking for a software from Open Source converting .html to .pdf. My search found follows;
denature-0.6.5 May 27, 2003
HTML_ToPDF - 11-24-2004: Version 3.3.

They seem a little bid out-of-date. Would you please give me some recommendation. TIA

Besides I have pdftohtml and ps2pdf running on this box. Are there versatile converters having multiple functions and 2-ways rather than installing several software. Tks.

Hi antidrugue,

Tks for your advice.

I got it with its old version, opening .html file on OOWriter and exporting it as .pdf file.

Works very well for me.

Though I haven't found a way to make those .pdf as small as the original .html, or nearly as small.

With OpenOffice you can make anything a .pdf, that's a nice feature.

Hi antidrugue,

Works very well for me.

It also works fine here. Except some distortion on graphics with text relocated/shifted. It needs further working to get the .pdf file looking excactly same as its original document-.html

Hum...

Which version of OpenOffice are you using?

I'm pretty sure you would get better results with OpenOffice 2.0.

I haven't had distorsion problem, ever...

Which version of OpenOffice are you using?

version 1.1.3.

I haven't upgraded it to version 2.0. Because I'm going to install FC4 on this box to replace the exist FC3.

I think you can take the HTML to PDF converter library for .NET from HTML to PDF Converter library for .NET 2.0, PDF Merge, PDF Split, PDF Security, RTF to PDF Converter. BarCode for ASP.NET. Chart Control for ASP.NET or from HTML to PDF Converter library for .NET 2.0, PDF Merge, PDF Split, PDF Security, RTF to PDF Converter. BarCode for ASP.NET. Chart Control for ASP.NET. You can be build your own application or you can use the demo one.

All the conversion can be done in a few lines for C# code:


// Create the PDF converter. Optionally you can specify the virtual browser
// width as parameter. 1024 pixels is default, 0 means autodetect
PdfConverter pdfConverter = new PdfConverter();
// set the license key
pdfConverter.LicenseKey = "P38cBx6AWW7b9c81TjEGxnrazP+J7rOjs+9omJ3TUycauK+cL WdrITM5T59hdW5r";
// set the converter options
pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.PdfPageSize = PdfPageSize.A4;
pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.PdfCompressionLeve l = PdfCompressionLevel.Normal;
pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.PdfPageOrientation = PDFPageOrientation.Portrait;
pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.ShowHeader = false;
pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.ShowFooter = false;
// set to generate selectable pdf or a pdf with embedded image
pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.GenerateSelectable Pdf = selectablePDF;

// Performs the conversion and get the pdf document bytes that you can further
// save to a file or send as a browser response
byte[] pdfBytes = pdfConverter.GetPdfFromUrlBytes(urlToConvert);
