Hi Team,


I am trying to convert html page using url to pdf but this exception occures-

An unhandled exception of type ‘System.ArgumentException’ occurred in Aspose.Pdf.dll

Additional information: At most 4 text fragments can be added in evaluation mode.


Code:

WebRequest request =WebRequest.Create(“https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/320193/000119312517003764/d307349ddefa14a.htm”);
// If required by the server, set the credentials.
request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
Stream dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd();
reader.Close();
dataStream.Close();
response.Close();

MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(responseFromServer));
HtmlLoadOptions options = new HtmlLoadOptions(“https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/320193/000119312517003764/”);

Document pdfDocument = new Document(stream, options);

options.PageInfo.IsLandscape = true;

Hi Asad,

Thanks for your inquiry. Aspose.Pdf evaluation version has two limitations, evaluation watermark and at most four elements of any collection can be viewed. Please make a request for 30 days temporary license to evaluate our product without any limitation, it will resolve the issue.


Please feel free to contact us for any further assistance.

Hi Team,


I am converting webpage using below ‘url’ in code but containing image in webpage is not converted in output pdf.

Aspose.Pdf.License license = new Aspose.Pdf.License();
license.SetLicense(“Aspose.Pdf.lic”);

WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(url);
// If required by the server, set the credentials.
request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
// time out in miliseconds before the request times out
// request.Timeout = 100;

// Get the response.
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();

// Get the stream containing content returned by the server.
Stream dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
// Open the stream using a StreamReader for easy access.
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
// Read the content.
string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd();
reader.Close();
dataStream.Close();
response.Close();

MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(responseFromServer));
HtmlLoadOptions options = new HtmlLoadOptions(“https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/320193/000119312517003764/”);


// Load HTML file
Document pdfDocument = new Document(stream, options);

options.PageInfo.IsLandscape = true;

// Save output as PDF format
pdfDocument.Save(@“C:\HTMLtoPDF_DOM.pdf”);

Hi Asad,

Thanks for sharing more details. I have tried to generate PDF from URL by using the code snippet which you have shared and was able to generate an output containing all images present in the URL. I have modified your code snippet a little (i.e I have set ExternalResourcesCredentials field of HtmlLoadOptions).

Please check the following code snippet and also the attached output file generated by the code.

System.Net.WebRequest request = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(“https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/320193/000119312517003764/d307349ddefa14a.htm”);<o:p></o:p>
// If required by the server, set the credentials.
request.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
// time out in miliseconds before the request times out
// request.Timeout = 100;
// Get the response.
System.Net.HttpWebResponse response = (System.Net.HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
// Get the stream containing content returned by the server.
Stream dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
// Open the stream using a StreamReader for easy access.
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);

// Read the content.
string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd();
reader.Close();
dataStream.Close();
response.Close();

MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(responseFromServer));
HtmlLoadOptions options = new HtmlLoadOptions("https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/320193/000119312517003764/");
options.ExternalResourcesCredentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
options.PageInfo.IsLandscape = true;
// Load HTML file
Document pdfDocument = new Document(stream, options);
// Save output as PDF format
pdfDocument.Save("HTMLtoPDF_DOM.pdf");

In case of any further assistance please feel free to contact us.

Hi Asad,


Thanks for contacting support.

I have tried to generate PDF from the code which you have shared and noticed that the content of generated document did not render correctly (i.e some text overlapped). I have also tried to resize the content of the document using following code snippet but I am sorry I got no success.

pdfDocument.ProcessParagraphs();<o:p></o:p>

// Resize contents of resultant PDF

int[] page_cnt1 = new int[pdfDocument.Pages.Count];

for (int i = 0; i < pdfDocument.Pages.Count; i++)

{

page_cnt1[i] = i + 1;

}

PdfFileEditor pfe = new PdfFileEditor();

pfe.ResizeContents(pdfDocument, page_cnt1, PdfFileEditor.ContentsResizeParameters.PageResize(Aspose.Pdf.PageSize.A4.Width, Aspose.Pdf.PageSize.A4.Height));


I have logged this issue as PDFNET-42273 in our issue tracking system for the purpose of further investigation.
