Last week’s release of version 4.1 of Document Converter for SharePoint shipped with an improved version of our popular PDF conversion engine. Today, we’re releasing an update to the standalone version of Document Converter Services, which includes the same engine and all new functionality, such as HTML-to-PDF conversion and improvements to the conversion of InfoPath documents.
Some of the highlights include:
-
Converting HTML to PDF using a Java/.NET web services interface
-
Converting common image formats — such as JPG, BMP, PNG, and GIF — to PDF
A high-level overview of the main web services-based interface.
A quick introduction for those not familiar with the product: Document Converter Services is an on-premises server-based SDK that allows software developers to convert typical Office files to PDF format using a robust, scalable web services interface from Java and .NET-based solutions. It supports a large number of file types, including MS Office and ODF file formats, as well as HTML and image-based files, and is used by some of the largest organizations in the world for mission-critical document conversions. In addition to converting documents, the product ships with a sophisticated watermarking engine and the ability to secure PDF files. A separate SharePoint-specific version is available as well.
