Issues with PDF Creator for Silverlight

Post by cthomson »

Hi there,

I've downloaded a trial version of PDF Creator and PDF for Silverlight. I'm currently trying to use the server side code in a webservice.

I can successfully load a pdf to the creator object and optmise but when trying to access the underlying XAML attribute it returns null.

Code example as follows:

====================================
acPDFCreatorLib.Initialize()

Dim acpdf As New Amyuni.PDFCreator.IacDocument()

acpdf.SetLicenseKey("Amyuni PDF Creator .NET Evaluation", "07EFCDAB...F3D7B1B")

Dim fln As New FileStream(Server.MapPath("mypdf.pdf"), FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
acpdf.OpenEx(fln, "")

acpdf.Attribute("PageSequenceStr").Value = ""
acpdf.OptimizeDocument(1)

Dim o = acpdf.Attribute("XAML").Value // Returns null
============================================

Is the trial version limited in that pdf creator will not return the compressed XAML? Or am I missing something...

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

The issue you are encountering is being caused because the “License to” and “Activation Code” values are incorrect or commented out.
Below are evaluation values that you can use.

//var b = acpdf.SetLicenseKey("Silverlight Evaluation", "07EFCDAB...8E7E085619");
acpdf.SetLicenseKey("Silverlight Evaluation", "07EFCDAB01000100D4F1764524E1760C4B8D6F736CDACF64D61974D59D46C422156936E39CB79AE221B5E13C3FD42F20B663D4B58FC1");
