XML to PDF using the COM
Posted: Thu Jun 15, 2006 9:49 am
Hi,
I need to convert an xml word document to a pdf, and I've gathered that using the COM is the best, simplest option here.
The script will be accessed through a browser, and will (among other things) need to convert an xml stored on the server to a pdf stored on the server.
Now, I'm new to COM use (and php in general), so:
The server I'll be using is not my own. Will I have to work with the server admin to get Word set up properly for this task?
Any tips about exactly what I need to do with word, etc to prepare for this?
Any other general tips about things like this?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks
