generate a PDF in an Azure App Service

Question

I'm currently trying to use a PDF generator in my project but it doesn't work in an Azure Web app. 

I am using something called SelectPDF to generate unique Pdf's.   https://selectpdf.com/docs/Deployment.htm … their site even says that it won't work in a web app.

Is there any suggestion of other PDF generation libraries I could use?

Answer 1

I have used iTextSharp before. See if that helps!

Hi Mexicoder,

You can use Spire.PDF to generate PDF in Azure Web app.

It's available on NuGet:

I am using ZetPDF SDK number of time. It is too easy to develop PDF functionality using this SDK. You can download the SDK from here. http://zetpdf.com/
