Hello Aniesh,

You can use the API in your intranet application providing that your network configuration allows sending HTTP POST to our server. Another thing is that the convertURI() API function is limited to public URLs and it is not possible to use it for intranet URLs. But you can still use convertHtml() and convertFile().

As to Fusion Charts, please refer to this thread: https://pdfcrowd.com/forum/archive/read/?3,346,1371#msg-1371

Hello,

If you use convertHtml() or convertFile() you have to specify public absolute URLs for resources linked from your HTML code. This means that the resources (javascript, stylesheets, images) must be publicly available somewhere. For example, instead of

<script src="FusionCharts/FusionCharts.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

you need to use

<script src="http://some-public-server.com/FusionCharts/FusionCharts.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Thanks for the Responce.

Do we have any option for auto save the pdf file into the application host server. if yes please send me the sample code.

Thanks

You can use FileStream to save a generated PDF on the server:

pdfcrowd.Client client = new pdfcrowd.Client("***", "***");

FileStream fileStream = new FileStream("c:/mypdfs/my.pdf", FileMode.CreateNew);
client.convertHtml($yourHtmlCode, fileStream);
fileStream.Close();

Hi ,

this is my code for generating the PDF.

How can i specify the top, bottam, left and right margin for the page.

FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(Server.MapPath("~//PDF//ISOHead.PDF"), FileMode.CreateNew);
pdfcrowd.Client client = new pdfcrowd.Client(strUID, strPWD);
client.convertHtml(strMsg1, fileStream);
fileStream.Close();

Thanks

Hello Aniesh,

Use the setPageMargins API method. An example:

client.setPageMargins(".3in", ".25in", ".25in", ".2in");

Please make sure that you are using the latest version of the client library as this method was added recently.
