DynamicPDF Converter for .NET (v2) Forum

 Aug 24 2020 8:45 AM
Hi,

When I try to convert a word file i get this error message "Could not find file 'C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\DpdfTempFolder\68095cea-7fe6-42e9-9d22-1d09b3f584f8.pdf'.'"
Does the component use this folder when converting? If so that is a problem for me because you have to be admin to access that folder and I'm not admin on my computer. Do you have any suggestion to solve this problem?

I use Converter 2.04, Win 10 and Office 2010.

Hello,

Yes, DynamicPDF Converter writes and reads files to a temporary folder during the conversion process. You can change the tempFilesPath by editing the Service.config file. Below are the steps.

1.        After installation, Open the ceTe.DynamicPDF.Converter.Service.exe.config file located at C:\Program Files (x86)\DynamicPDF Converter v2.xx for .NET\Service in notepad.
2.        Edit the tempFilesPath property and set to desired path where the user account the service is running as (system by default) has read and write permissions.
                    <ceTe.dynamicPdf.conversion tempFilesPath="%TEMP%" printHtmlBackgroundColorAndImage="true" enableLogging="false"/>
3.        Restart the DynamicPDF Converter service.

Thanks,
