Is it possible to programatically convert a DOCX to a PDF in a C# web application?

I currently have RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX and Silverlight and Telerik Reporting.

Hello Justin,

Take a look at the following msdn documentation.

Using Word Interop isn't an option for us at this point, because of licensing restrictions.

Do you know of another way to convert to PDF using one of the Telerik libraries or the OpenXML 2.0 libraries?

Thanks

Hello Justin,

Converting documents from one format to another is out of the scope of our suite. You could use a third-party solution if you prefer not to use the Microsoft Office's interoperability features.

In this thread, it looks like the user is opening a DOCX, making a change and exporting to PDF using the RadDocument/IDocumentFormatProvider:

Is this not possible using the products I currently have?

Hello Justin,

I apologize, my answer was not very clear - by "our suite" I meant RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX. I would strongly recommend that you post questions related to the other product lines in the corresponding forums.

Kind regards,

Is this conversion possible now the ASP.NET AJAX UI Controls include the Document Processing library? 

I saw this post: " http://www.telerik.com/forums/word-document-to-pdf-conversion-image-issue-using-pdfformatprovider " which was posted in an ASP.NET AJAX forum, but seems to be WPF.

Thanks in advance

Hello Luuk,

I am afraid that this approach will not working by the provided Document Processing Libraries, because the dll needed for implementing a RadDocument class is missing. The reason for not including it is that the dll is tightly coupled with WPF. Nevertheless if you have the installed the WPF you could get the Telerik.Windows.Documents dll file and include it in your project.
