Hello , I'd like to know if anyone knows an extension or a way how to convert any of the file extensions mentioned on the title for PDF? Have tried some libraries in an C# extension but I haven't found one that works fine server side to me. Thanks in advance :)
You can check https://www.convertapi.com/docx-to-pdf for a (paid) REST service that claims to do what you need. This would be simple to implement in OutSystems. Otherwise, most alternatives would rely on at least two libraries... one to read the contents of a document and a second to render them in PDF format.
Hello Luiz,
I've just release one library to convert docx to pdf. It's still in a early beta stage but you can check it out at:

Cheers,Miguel

Dear Miguel,
Do you have the latest version of this, as I tried to publish this extension in my environment and i encountered the error while publishing the same.
My requirement is to convert word binary to pdf before download the same.
Thanks,
Zubair
I tried to use your component but I got compile error while publishing it to my environment.

Hi Danang,
If you post your question as a new topic, I'll be glad to provide my thoughts on the subject. This post seems to be loosely related to the original topic, and this way you will hopefully get better answers. A good title could be "How can I convert an Excel file to PDF with a custom layout?".
Thanks for understanding!
Ooops, seems you had just done that a few minutes before I replied... I'll continue there then!
