Re: HTML to Image
Does anyone know of a custom tag (or anything else) that can create an image based on HTML input (like CF_HTML2PDF2 but to an image)? To everyone who was asking about getting website screenshots this week, Mike took it up as a challenge today and wrote a simple cfx_url2bmp. You can download it from http://efflare.com/download/ It's completely free, and includes a readme file with instructions on use. ImageXY, another free tag I saw mentioned recently, should be out soon too. any chance of configuring the screen size or color depth? the thing is it uses the current screen config.. it would be great to make this work in 8bit for example, the resulting image and also memory usage/speed would really improve __ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists

RE: HTML to Image
I did some experimentation to set up a service to use MS Word to convert web-pages to DOC/RTF and PDF (printing and running through Ghostscript). It would be trivial to add to this service functionality to output it in an imageformat, Ghostscript allows this.

RE: HTML to Image
Well, the concept is this: As long as you can get a ps or eps file then you can filter it through Ghostscript, and specify a device. There are a number of devices to choose from among those pdf, ps, jpeg, png etc. To get it to postscript I created an ASP page (could as well be done in a Win-based CF setup) that started the winword object, opened the site and printed it to a file using a generic postscript printer (Apple Color Laswerwriter). I guess it could be done through an IE control too, perhaps? Not the smoothest way though... __ Your ad could be here.

Re: HTML to Image
There was a thread way back when about a COM object that could do this.
Generating HTML thumbnails, COM Question
An exerpt from a message:
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
ok, I found the class it's called
Shell.ThumbnailExtract.HTML.1 {EAB841A0-9550-11CF-8C16-00805F1408F3}
I tried to play with it with cfobject
cfobject type=COM name=Thumbnail
class=Shell.ThumbnailExtract.HTML.1 action=CREATE
context=INPROC
but I got a . COM error 0x80004002. No such interface
supported error
which cfcoment says No known solutions presently exist for
this error.
anyone interested in playing a bit with this, I gotta no clue
about COM, WIN32 stuff
This is just a shot in the dark, but you might try making sure that the CF
Server service is running such that it allows interaction with the desktop -
you can check this in the Services list.

There is also a utility I've used before that says it has a command line interface: http://www.html2jpg.com/ Can't vouch for the command-line version, but the gui version works just fine.
