Does the EO.Pdf.HtmlToPdf.ConvertUrl() function or any of the HTML to PDF functions work with MVC Razor views? If so, are there any code samples available. When I supply my working url to the function I receive the 'Failed to convert Url' error message. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
ConvertUrl works like a browser. What technology you use on the server side does not matter. So the error is caused by something else.
Please try to update to the latest build first and see if you still have problems. If you still have problems, post the full error message and stack trace and we will see what we can find.
Thanks!

I've made some progress. I'm able to create a .pdf, but the .pdf that is created is just a render of my application's log-in page, so I think there is an issue with authentication. I get the same result using both the ConvertURL and ConvertHtml functions. Do you have any advice for how to get around this in MVC 3?

Hi, One way is to add an additional query string argument to bypass the authentication logic. See here for more details: http://www.essentialobjects.com/forum/postst5528_How-to-convert-a-Web-page-that-requires-login-to-PDF.aspxThanks!
