Can't get PDF-Writer.NET v2.7 from dbAutoTrack working...

kschuelke — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 14:39:56 GMT

and I can't find much info or help. I'm just trying to get one of their simple samples to run on my local PC, once that's working I'll move it to my host and see if it will run under their setting of 'Medium Trust'. But, I can't get it working on my local PC. I get no errors, and I know it's executing as I follow it through debug, but when it gets to the _document.Generate(FileStream) command, it executes that command without throwing an exception, but no PDF is generated. Here's my code, which is a copy of their sample:

//_document.Compress = false;

//Initialize new page with PageSize A4

Page page1 = new Page(PageSize.A4);//Get the PDFGraphics object for drawing to the page.

PDFGraphics graphics1 = page1.Graphics;//using System.Drawing.Font;

System.Drawing.

Font _font1 = new Font("Arial", 10, FontStyle.Regular);Font _font2 = new Font("Arial", 10, FontStyle.Bold);Font _font3 = new Font("Arial", 10, FontStyle.Italic);PDFFont _pdfFont1 = new PDFFont(_font1, false);PDFFont _pdfFont2 = new PDFFont(_font2, false);PDFFont _pdfFont3 = new PDFFont(_font3, false);//DrawString

graphics1.DrawString(50, 100,

graphics1.DrawString(50, 150,

graphics1.DrawString(50, 200,

"Welcome to PDFWriter for .NET", RGBColor.Black, _pdfFont1, 10);"Welcome to PDFWriter for .NET", RGBColor.Red, _pdfFont2, 12, false, false);"Welcome to PDFWriter for .NET by dbAutoTrack Ltd, USA.", RGBColor.Black, _pdfFont3, 12, true, false);//Add the page to the Document

_document.Pages.Add(page1);

//Initialize new page with PageSize A4.

Page page2 = new Page(PageSize.A4);//Get the PDFGraphics object for drawing to the page.

PDFGraphics graphics2 = page2.Graphics;//using Standard PDF Fonts

PDFFont _pdfFont4 = new PDFFont(StandardFonts.Helvetica, FontStyle.Regular);PDFFont _pdfFont5 = new PDFFont(StandardFonts.Helvetica, (FontStyle.Bold | FontStyle.Italic));PDFFont _pdfFont6 = new PDFFont(StandardFonts.Helvetica, FontStyle.Bold);//DrawString

graphics2.DrawString(50, 100,

graphics2.DrawString(50, 150,

graphics2.DrawString(50, 200,

"Welcome to PDFWriter for .NET", RGBColor.Black, _pdfFont4, 10);"Welcome to PDFWriter for .NET", RGBColor.Red, _pdfFont5, 12, false, false);"Welcome to PDFWriter for .NET by dbAutoTrack Ltd, USA.", RGBColor.Black, _pdfFont6, 12, false, false);//Add the page to the Document

_document.Pages.Add(page2);

FileStream _fs = new FileStream("TextBox_Sample.pdf", System.IO.FileMode.Create, System.IO.FileAccess.Write);try

{

//Generate PDF to the stream

_document.Generate(_fs);

//MessageBox.Show("TextBox_Sample.pdf generated successfully in Bin Folder", "PDF-Writer.NET by dbAutoTrack Ltd, USA.");

}

finally

{

_fs.Flush();

_fs.Close();

}

Anyone have any ideas?
