convert PPTX to PDF using Community Licence

[Marcelo Camarate]

Hi all,

My company is eligible to use SyncFusion products and I have already signed up for the community license program.

I have an ASP.NET (Classic)/VB.NET application developed in Visual Studio 2013. I need to develop a function that converts a .PPTX file to .PDF format and I don't know how to do it.

What SyncFusion product should I download from the Community License site? How can I obtain the respective license code on the site to place it in the program source? Have a tutorial in the SyncFusion website or in YouTube that showing the step-by-step instructions for doing this?

Can someone help me, please?

Thanks in advance

Marcelo, Regarding: How can I obtain the respective license code on the site to place it in the program source?

You need to generate the file formats platform license key from your Syncfusion account. Please refer to the following documentation to learn about how to generate the license key.
https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/licensing/how-to-generate



To know about registering the license key,

Syncfusion license keys are only version and product-specific. Also, “the generated license key is just a string that needs to be registered before any Syncfusion control is initiated in an app.”

Find below the knowledge base article to know about which version license key should use in application,

Hi Akash Arul,

Thank you for your replies.

But, as my application was developed in ASP.NET/VB.NET (traditional webforms) and not in Core or MVC, how and where should I register the license key?

In addition, the application runs on a Windows 2012 server.

Thanks in advance,

Marcelo, please refer to the following help documentation for instructions on how to register the license key for your ASP.NET application.

Syncfusion license keys are not server-specific\system specific. A single license key can be used on different servers\systems.

But our license keys are version and product specific. So, please ensure that all the referenced Syncfusion assemblies\NuGet packages are on the same version(23.1.36) as the license key’s version(23.*.*).
