Hi, we are currently using version 1.0.4.2 of Doconut. How can we export to PDF with this version or do we need to upgrade?

Thank you.

Hi @timchimento

Thank you for your question.

With Doconut, you can already export a document to PDF using the ExportToPdf() method. Below is a simple example for an ASP .NET MVC (.NET Framework) project:

var exportBytes = document.ExportToPdf();

var fileName = $"{DateTime.Now.Ticks}-Export.pdf";

System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(
    Server.MapPath($"~/files/{fileName}"),
    exportBytes
);

This will generate the PDF on the server and store it in your /files folder.

That said, if you are planning to extend your conversion capabilities beyond PDF (for example: DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, images, etc.), we strongly recommend upgrading to the latest version of Doconut and using our new Converter Plugin, which is specifically designed for multi-format document conversion:

Upgrading will also ensure you benefit from the latest performance improvements, security updates, and new features.

If you need any help, feel free to let us know.
