Web Invoice Sample

This sample describes how to receive PDF documents and thumbnails in a memory stream and how to render pages selectively. Before the generation of PDF documents or thumbnails this sample use a stylesheet(XSL) file to transform input XML into XSL-FO.

The important points of this sample are the following:

1. XSL Transformation:
   • First load the XML input and the stylesheet.
   • Transform the XML data using the stylesheet and place the transformtion in a memory stream.
   • Use the transformation result as input to the engine.
2. Render PDF documents in memory:
   • Output format must be set before calling Render
   • Call Render passing the HttpResponse.Response as the second parameter.
3. Selective Rendering and Thumbnails:
   • Document is loaded with Load (or LoadUrl).
   • Once the document is loaded, you can find the number of pages, as well as the dimensions of each iundividual page or resize the output.
   • Use ExportTo to generate the output. This method can be called multiple times, for example to generate a thumbnail for each page, or to genarate the document and a thumbnail of the first page, etc.
