[iText-questions] HTML to PDF

[Hugh McLaughlin]

Hello Everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I am using
iTextSharp 5.1.2.0 and want to convert HTML to PDF. I am going through
the documentation and numerous posts. I attempted to utilize the HTML
parser without success. It appears the solution is very dependent on
the version of iTextSharp. Would someone be able to point me in the
right direction? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure what you mean by HTML parser. If this is about HTMLWorker,
please switch to XML Worker. See http://itextpdf.com/summit.php#talk3
for more info. If this is about XML Worker, please clarify.

Ok, I've switched over to XMLWorker, and studied the documentation and
example at:



http://demo.itextsupport.com/xmlworker/itextdoc/flatsite.html



However, I receive an error on the first line:



Dim HtmlContext As HtmlPipelineContext = New HtmlPipelineContext()



I'm using itext.xmlworker 1.1.3 with VB in VS 2010. The rest of the
sample code gives me no compiler errors. What am I not understanding?

The New HTMLPipelineContext()is looking for an argument CssAppliers.

The documentation wasn't updated to XML Worker 1.1.3.
HtmlPipelineContext now needs a parameter:
