Code Sample - Replace Images from HTML with Higher Quality Images in PDF
C#
protected void convertToPdf() { // Get the server IP and port String serverIP = textBoxServerIP.Text; uint serverPort = uint.Parse(textBoxServerPort.Text); // Create a HTML to PDF converter object HtmlToPdfConverter htmlToPdfConverter = null; if (radioButtonUseTcpService.Checked) htmlToPdfConverter = new HtmlToPdfConverter(serverIP, serverPort); else htmlToPdfConverter = new HtmlToPdfConverter(true, textBoxWebServiceUrl.Text); // Set optional service password if (textBoxServicePassword.Text.Length > 0) htmlToPdfConverter.ServicePassword = textBoxServicePassword.Text; // Set license key received after purchase to use the converter in licensed mode // Leave it not set to use the converter in demo mode htmlToPdfConverter.LicenseKey = "4W9+bn19bn5ue2B+bn1/YH98YHd3d3c="; // Set an adddional delay in seconds to wait for JavaScript or AJAX calls after page load completed // Set this property to 0 if you don't need to wait for such asynchcronous operations to finish htmlToPdfConverter.ConversionDelay = 2; // Select all images from HTML page htmlToPdfConverter.HtmlElementsMappingOptions.HtmlElementSelectors = new string[] { "img" }; // Exclude the original images from rendering becuase they will be replaced by an image from local file system htmlToPdfConverter.HiddenHtmlElementsSelectors = new string[] { "img" }; // Convert a HTML string with images to replace to a PDF document object Document pdfDocument = htmlToPdfConverter.ConvertUrlToPdfDocumentObject(urlTextBox.Text); // Replace the images selected in HTML using special attributes with images from local file system int mappingsCount = htmlToPdfConverter.HtmlElementsMappingOptions.HtmlElementsMappingResult.Count; for (int i = 0; i < mappingsCount; i++) { HtmlElementMapping imageElementInfo = htmlToPdfConverter.HtmlElementsMappingOptions.HtmlElementsMappingResult.GetByIndex(i); PdfPage imagePdfPage = pdfDocument.GetPage(imageElementInfo.PdfRectangles[0].PageIndex); RectangleFloat imageRectangle = imageElementInfo.PdfRectangles[0].Rectangle; ImageElement newImageElement = new ImageElement(imageRectangle.X, imageRectangle.Y, imageRectangle.Width, imageRectangle.Height, Server.MapPath("~/DemoAppFiles/Input/Images/box.jpg")); newImageElement.EnlargeEnabled = true; imagePdfPage.AddElement(newImageElement); } // Save the PDF document in a memory buffer byte[] outPdfBuffer = pdfDocument.Save(); }
