Need to convert stream file to PDF.

S is my stream variable.
I have successfully converted it into doc format. Now I am trying for pdf one.
Content Type: "application/pdf" doesn't work.
Please give me a solution.

 s = ac.ExportApplicationResultDocument(templatePath, spiderDiagram, bestDiagram, worstDiagram, this._positionsNormalCaseResults, this._positionsWorstCaseResults, this._normalCaseRequiredTrainings, this._worstCaseRequiredTrainings, this._assessedLevel, this._justification, this._normalCaseResultingDecision, this._worstCaseResultingDecision, (InternalStatus)application.IdCurrentApplicationStatus.Value, applicant.FirstName, applicant.LastName, string.Format(Resources.TextResources.ResultPageGlobalResultEADSCorpId, applicant.EADSPersonalID), worstCaseTableImage, bestCaseTableImage, this._assessedDate); Response.Clear(); Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=Result.docx"); Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document"; s.CopyTo(Response.OutputStream); Response.End(); 

You did not share the code that exports to PDF. You can't only change the content-type if that's what you're doing. You need a PDF library which are plentiful if you do an internet search.

Ok, i thought this MIME works for word, similarly it will go for PDF if I change that content-type. Ok let me check libraries. THANK YOU

Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=Result.docx");

Does Response represent HttpResponse ? After search the usage if your code, I am sure your code is ok in .net framework. And in .net core , we can open pdf by return File() , if you want to download it, you can use return new FileContentResult . 1. Open PDF:

public IActionResult OpenPDF() < var globalSettings = new GlobalSettings < ColorMode = ColorMode.Color, Orientation = Orientation.Portrait, PaperSize = PaperKind.A4, Margins = new MarginSettings < Top = 10 >, DocumentTitle = "PDF Report" >; var objectSettings = new ObjectSettings < PagesCount = true, HtmlContent = TemplateGenerator.GetHTMLString(), WebSettings = < DefaultEncoding = "utf-8", UserStyleSheet = Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "assets", "styles.css") >, HeaderSettings = < FontName = "Arial", FontSize = 9, Right = "Page [page] of [toPage]", Line = true >, FooterSettings = < FontName = "Arial", FontSize = 9, Line = true, Center = "Report Footer" >>; var pdf = new HtmlToPdfDocument() < GlobalSettings = globalSettings, Objects = < objectSettings >>; var file = _converter.Convert(pdf); return File(file, "application/pdf"); > 

public IActionResult DownloadPDF() < var globalSettings = new GlobalSettings < ColorMode = ColorMode.Color, Orientation = Orientation.Portrait, PaperSize = PaperKind.A4, Margins = new MarginSettings < Top = 10 >, DocumentTitle = "PDF Report" >; var objectSettings = new ObjectSettings < PagesCount = true, HtmlContent = TemplateGenerator.GetHTMLString(), WebSettings = < DefaultEncoding = "utf-8", UserStyleSheet = Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "assets", "styles.css") >, HeaderSettings = < FontName = "Arial", FontSize = 9, Right = "Page [page] of [toPage]", Line = true >, FooterSettings = < FontName = "Arial", FontSize = 9, Line = true, Center = "Report Footer" >>; var pdf = new HtmlToPdfDocument() < GlobalSettings = globalSettings, Objects = < objectSettings >>; var file = _converter.Convert(pdf); return new FileContentResult(file, "application/pdf") < FileDownloadName = Guid.NewGuid() + ".pdf" >; >
