Hello,

I am using Alfreso3.2r2 windows as well as linux version. My requirment is , i have to convert all the content uploaded on alfresco server to pdf.
I am able convert doc,xls ,txt etc… files using alfresco's inbuilt rule. But i am not able to convert any image file (png,jpg,jpeg etc) to pdf file.
So can any one let me know , does alfresco support image to pdf conversion using inbuilt rule?

If not how is it possible to convert image files to PDF by changing some configuration files ?


Thanks ,
Sandip Parikh

Converting image to pdf is a little easier compared with converting <a href="http://www.rasteredge.com/how-to/vb-net-imaging/convert-pdf-to-image/">pdf to image</a> with programming language. Following are the methods designed by me to render and convert pdf to image file format, like jpeg, png, gif, bmp or tiff.


Private Function GetPage(pageIdx As Integer) As BasePage Implements PDFDocument.GetPage
End Function
Private Function toImage() As BaseImage Implements PDFPage.toImage
End Function
Private Function toImage(height As Integer, width As Integer) As BaseImage Implements PDFPage.toImage
End Function

For converting the image file format to PDF I generally prefer Tiff to PDF converter Mac as I have got Mac OS but the best part of this software is that it also got a windows version so you can try it in order to convert the image file to PDF on your Windows version.
