To convert documents from remote URLs, use the LoadFromHttp method from the GdPictureDocumentConverter class.

LoadFromHttp accepts:

Examples:

  • Word — DocumentFormat.DocumentFormatDOCX
  • Excel — DocumentFormat.DocumentFormatXLSX
  • PowerPoint — DocumentFormat.DocumentFormatPPTX
  • PDF — DocumentFormat.DocumentFormatPDF

LoadFromHttp returns a GdPictureStatus, which should always be checked before conversion.

To load and convert a document from a remote URL (example: DOCX to PDF), use the following code:

using GdPicture14;
using System;


using GdPictureDocumentConverter converter = new GdPictureDocumentConverter();


Uri fileUri = new Uri("https://pspdfkit.com/downloads/load-a-file/source.docx");


GdPictureStatus status = converter.LoadFromHttp(fileUri, DocumentFormat.DocumentFormatDOCX);
if (status != GdPictureStatus.OK)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"LoadFromHttp failed: {status}");
    return;
}


status = converter.SaveAsPDF(@"C:\temp\output.pdf");
if (status != GdPictureStatus.OK)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"SaveAsPDF failed: {status}");
}
