Don't despair.
Com Interop/DCOM work pretty good in ASP.NET
They have full instructions at their website.
Are you concerned about performance ?
No - I'm concerned about the fact that I can't install software on my public
website because my ISP won't allow me to.
Here's a reply from their technical support which makes hilarious reading...
"a .NET assembly will not solve your problem - you will also have to install
the full DC Pro installer on that server - the reason for this is that
Document Converter Pro requires some PostScript printer drivers in order to
convert ms office documents and these drivers are installed by the main
installer. I don't think that any ISP will allow you to do that.
PS. DC Pro has a Adobe Distiller-like workflow, this means that in order to
convert a ms word document into PDF it will first open this document in ms
word, print it into a postscript file and then convert the resulting PS file
into PDF."
Not only do they expect me to install their ActiveX control on my public
hosted site; they also need Microsoft Office too.
