Web Forms :: How To Display Binary PDf In HTML/Text
Oct 25, 2010
I am saving user uploaded PDF files in SQL server using varbinary datatype. There is totally no problem in saving in binary and retrieving in PDF. But due to one specific requirement (which i cant change) i to need to fetch binary PDF and display in HTML or atleast get in string form.
Rite now i m opening PDF files like code written below. But it opens a PDF reader in browser. I want to display the data of PDF in plain text instead in PDF reader.
Currently we are saving files (PDF, DOC) into the database as BLOB fields. I would like to be able to retrieve the raw text of the file to be able to manipulate it for hit-highlighting and other functions.Does anyone know of a simple way to either parse out the files and save the raw text on save, either via SQL or .net code. I have found that Adobe has a filtdump utility that will convert the PDF to text. Filtdump seems to be a command line tool, and i don't see a way to use a file stream. And what would the extractor be for Office documents and other file types?-or-Is there a way to pull out the raw text from the SQL Full text index, without using 3rd party filters?Note i am trying to build a .net & MSSql solution without having to use a third party tool such as Lucene
i have an html editor where a user can put in some text.the thing is that when trying to display this text on a different page results in displaying the html that was saved by the editor.i want to display the text in a text box (if possible), with the special attributes(bold, itali etc.i currently get the text with the html tags.
I am getting data straight from the database into a data source. The data is binded in a repeater with link buttons.
The problem I am having is that the data in the database might have multiple spaces in the middle of the string however when being displayed on the front end only space is being shown. After thinking about it this is standard HTML behavior to remove spaces, I would have assumed that asp.net would have handled this with the rendering of the webpage. What is also happening is that when reports are exported to excel it only has 1 space instead of two.
Example:
2 spaces: "South Africa - Cape Town" single spaces: "South Africa - Cape Town"
This is an irrelevant example but my data has real use for multiple spaces.
I need to display binary data (that is stored in the database) in the aspx page. The file types are word and pdf. Since there might be multiple files, what I did was created IFrames dynamically and tried to embed the binary data. The problem is rather than embeding the word doc or pdf doc in the page, it displays the open/save dialog box.
is there any way to solve this (embed the word/pdf doc in the page itself)?
I am using crystal report and I am exporting data to PDF. In crystal report for a particular field I have HTML text as input. So I have set Text Interpretation as 'HTML Text' for that field in crystal report. But still in PDF few things are not working. That is, it is not showing bold, and bullets etc. Underline and color and font are working fine. HTML text is :

How would I convert text to binary using c#. If you don't know what I mean, check this page out:
[URL]. It doesn't have to auto update like that one though. I just want to be able to type in some text and then click a convert botton then it would show the binary text in a label.
i am working on Multi Level Products.i need to display data in the form of binary tree how to go for it. is there any control to display it or is there any other way
I am outputing a text file of 1s and 0s. I want to shrink the file so I'm going to convert it to ascii. Its going to be used on a clientside web application so I can convert it back to binary with some scripting later on.
So, I want to convert the string of binary to a string of ascii serverside in vb.net. I have spent much time searching the web for a vb.net solution, and, what a mess!! everyone thinks they know how to do it, but none of the solutions have worked so far!!
I wanna save this text in my sql db as binary.I wanna retrive it any time I want and read text and view it. How can I do that in c#. Aslo what should my table row type? binary(1000) is ok?

I have an Editor control on my page and the user can go in use it hit save and that all works.
In another part of the page I have a simple dropdown to select a note and view it. When you push view it loads the text which was entered in via the editor control.
If the user used an order or unordered list. The text shows up but not the list part.
So if they did this:
Example ThisAnd this
What is displaying is
Example This And This
Without the bullets. Same for the numbers.
I have it going to a literal control which should render the html, but it doesn't.
