.NET Interface

The .NET Interface makes it possible for Office Server Document Converter V10.0 to function through .NET applications developed using Visual Basic.NET, Visual C#.NET and similar programs.

Windows version

Linux version

CAUTION: The .NET Interface for Amazon Linux 2 Graviton2 version is not available.
The Microsoft .NET Framework 1.0/1.1/2.0/3.0 is not supported.
You cannot have both Office Server Document Converter V10.0 and another version of Office Server Document Converter installed on your machine when the .NET interface is used. It is necessary to uninstall one version, or only set the path of Office Server Document Converter you want to use by deleting the unwanted path from the environment variables.
When using .NET 6 interface on Windows version, ijwhost.dll (.NET Core host DLL) is required. This file is normally installed in the [%ProgramFiles%\dotnet\packs\Microsoft.NETCore.App.Host.win-x64\6.0.XX\runtime\win-x64\native] folder. Please place it in the same folder as DfvDotNet60Ctl100.dll.

Component Registration

Office Server Document Converter .NET component is not registered automatically to the global assembly cache (GAC). It is necessary to create the path either by putting the .NET component in the current folder of the application, or by creating an application configuration file.

Windows version
.NET Component File Name for .NET Framework 4.6.2/4.7.x/4.8.x DfvDotNet40Ctl100.dll(build:VS2022)
for .NET 6 DfvDotNet60Ctl100.dll (build:VS2022)
Linux version
.NET Component File Name for .NET 6 DfvDotNet60MCtl100.dll

Classes

The following classes are contained in the .NET component:

Name Functions
DfvObj Office Server Document Converter V10.0 class (itself). This class implements an IDisposable interface. When exiting DfvObj class object, call Dispose method in order to release the resource.

Example for C#

  • When “@INX” is specified, the converted result is outputted to INX.
  • When “@Flash” is specified, the converted result is outputted to Flash.
  • When “@JPEG” is specified, the converted result is outputted to JPEG.
  • When “@PJPEG” is specified, the converted result is output as progressive JPEG.
  • When “@PNG” is specified, the converted result is outputted to PNG.
  • When “@IPNG” is specified, the converted result is output as interlaced PNG.
  • When “@TIFF” is specified, the converted result is outputted to TIFF.
  • When “@TIFFC” is specified, the converted result is outputted to TIFF CMYK.
  • When “@MTIFF” is specified, the converted result is outputted to multi-page TIFF.

When a printer is specified as an output format by PrinterName, a printing result is saved to the specified file by the printer driver. When an output format other than a printer is specified, it is saved as the specified file with the specified output format. When omitted, or when “@STDOUT” is specified, it goes to standard output.
StartPage
EndPage
Int32 R/W Specifies the start page number or the end page number of a document to output. If the start page is omitted or the specified value is 0, the start page is considered the first page.
