Instantiate PdfConvertOptions class
Call Convert method of Converter class instance for conversion to PDF

Load & Convert Remotely Located Documents

Using Conholdate.Total for .NET – developers can load and convert documents from various remote locations and cloud document storage resources such as Amazon S3, Microsoft Azure Blob, FTP, local disk, stream or a simple URL. You just have to specify the method to obtain remotely located document stream and then pass it on to the Converter class as a constructor.

Conholdate.Total for .NET APIs are native to Windows Forms, ASP.NET, WPF, WCF or any type of application based on .NET Framework 2.0 or later.

What is DWG file format?

The DWG file format is a proprietary binary file format used for storing two- and three-dimensional design data and metadata. It is the native format for several CAD packages including AutoCAD, IntelliCAD, Caddie and Open Design Alliance compliant applications. The DWG format is one of the most widely used CAD data formats, as it ensures high accuracy and smooth surface data. DWG files are robust and highly secure, making them suitable for large-scale industry designs. DWG is also used for data exchange between other CAD programs. The DWG file format is based on the Interchange File Format (IFF), which is a file format schema used for storing and exchanging data between applications. IFF contains a number of different file divisions, including a header, a data section, and a description. The header stores information about the DWG file such as the size and type of the file. The data section contains the actual design information, such as shapes, text, layers, and line types. Finally, the description section contains metadata, such as object and entity descriptions, scales and transformation, and document comments. Since DWG is a proprietary format, it requires a special kind of software to open and edit. However, there are several CAD programs that can open and save DWG files. Additionally, several third party applications exist that can convert DWG files to and from other CAD formats. DWG files provide a secure, high-quality platform for engineers, architects, and other professionals to store their design and drawing data. As such, DWG is a valuable asset that ensures accuracy and reliability in the creative industries.

What is SVG file format?

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is a versatile and efficient XML-based format used for creating two-dimensional graphics that can be scaled to any size without losing quality. It offers support for animation and interactivity, making it a powerful choice for a wide range of applications. Developed as an open standard by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), SVG is widely supported by modern web browsers, ensuring broad compatibility and accessibility.

One of the key advantages of SVG is its ability to produce compact file sizes compared to bitmap images like JPEG or PNG. This makes SVG images ideal for web usage, as they can be quickly loaded and displayed. Additionally, SVG graphics are resolution-independent, meaning they can be scaled up or down without losing their sharpness or clarity. This scalability allows for seamless adaptation to different screen sizes and resolutions across various devices.

Creating and editing SVG images can be accomplished using specialized vector graphics editors, such as Inkscape, or by hand-coding with a text editor. The format supports a rich set of features, including gradients, patterns, text, and animation, empowering designers and developers to create visually engaging and interactive graphics. SVG images find applications in diverse fields, ranging from website design and print media to data visualization, mobile apps, and games.

One notable advantage of SVG is its open standard nature, which fosters collaboration and innovation. Being an open standard developed by the W3C, SVG is freely available for use, modification, and extension by developers. This openness ensures that SVG files can be easily integrated into different applications and workflows, fostering interoperability and compatibility.
