Hi
I built a software using EO webcontrol and used this source code for the print button but i need it to not show and printing dialog after:
Dim settings = WebView.GetDefaultPrinterSettings()

settings.PrinterName = name1

settings.PrintToFile = True

settings.PrintFileName = "C:\1.pdf"

WebView1.Print(settings)

it selects the printer and doesn't show the select printer window but it still shows the select filename window.

to not show any window i also tried this:

Private Sub webView1_BeforePrint(sender As Object, e As BeforePrintEventArgs)

e.Continue(True)

End Sub

while putting this before the webview1.print command:

AddHandler WebView1.BeforePrint, New BeforePrintHandler(AddressOf webView1_BeforePrint)



what must i do to just print to pdf without any window showing up?

yes but i want to get the user inputted text too. and from what i saw.. html to pdf only gets the webpage.. right?

how do i use that with a webcontrol that i already have in my software?
or do i need to make another object in my software to replace the webcontrol and load pages in that new object.. then print to pdf?

i will test the components a lot first. how long does the trial last maximum?

1.does it get the images from the webpage too or just the text? i saved the data on an html file and opened in firefox but it didn't show the image http://screencast.com/t/qdRsgaAfm3
2.where do i find the htmltopdf component in .net? i clicked "choose items" and checked the "COM components" tab + the ".net framework components". before this i downloaded and installed the eo.pdf product.

This is exactly why you need to set HtmlToPdf.Options.BaseUrl.

Hi,

You would use ConvertHtml(html, pdf_fileName).

You do not appear to understand what BaseUrl is for. You can read here for more information about this property:

Thanks!

Hi,

That is something you need to work out yourself. You have a .NET application that uses our DLLs and you will run into a million different errors that can happen to all .NET applications that aren't particuarly related to our product. For example, you will get one error when a DLL you use is missing, you will get another error when a DLL you use is of the wrong version, you will get some other errors when your application doesn't have sufficient permission to run, etc. We consider all these problems generic .NET programming questions and generally we won't answer those. You will need to work those issues out yourself.

If you have done basic troubleshooting and is able to trace back to the problem to a specific location inside our DLL --- for example, our DLL throws an error message when you try to create a WebView, then we will be happy to help you further, even though sometimes such errors is related to your environment. The idea here is we only provide support on our product, we do not provide support for generic .NET programming.

Thanks
