Hello,
you cannot call iText directly from Classic Asp or VB. But there is a
"long" solution walking through iTextSharp and writing an own wrapper COM
object. I'm not sure if it works perfectly and if its performances are good
or bad.
- download iTextSharp (NET version of iText)
http://itextsharp.sourceforge.net/
- write your own wrapper class of iTextSharp and expose it as a COM object
(search on MSDN or Google)
- register the resulting COM (regsvr32) and call it from VB or Asp
The big work and propblem is the "wrapper class": I thinks it is impossible
to write a complete wrapper of all itextsharp. But if you need few features
it could be possible.
A better solution: write a NET class with your logic and pass to it only the
required parameters:
VB/Asp --> COM object --> Your NET Class --> iTextSharp.
And remember: you need NET on the machine running asp / vb.

Hello All,
I am a Java developer and I am not very familiar to VB and ASP. I have
used iText in my java code. Now I need to find out if it can be used in
VB/ASP. I have read that iText can be used with ASP.net but question is
regarding using iText with classic VB/ASP applications.
If this is possible, some pointers on how to do this will also be very
helpful.
Do let me know if anyone knows the answer to this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
AJ
