Hi! You can invoke "pdf.Save()" with a stream. Use a MemoryStream and you will have the PDF file in it. Use GetBytes for the stream to get a byte array. See lines 21 through 26 in the first code block here: http://pdfsharp.net/wiki/Clock-sample.ashx |

See lines 21 through 26 in the first code block here: http://pdfsharp.net/wiki/Clock-sample.ashx Thank you for the reply, I am trying to incorporate this into my code, just to clarify. If I just want to store the pdf file in a variable how would I proceed from here? this is my code right now MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(); document.Save(stream, false); HttpContext.Current.Response.Clear(); HttpContext.Current.Response.ContentType = "output/pdf"; HttpContext.Current.Response.AddHeader("content-length", stream.Length.ToString()); HttpContext.Current.Response.BinaryWrite(stream.ToArray()); i am not sure how to store the pdf file to use in another method |

"stream.ToArray()" is your PDF file. "var pdf = stream.ToArray();" gives you a variable with the PDF file. You can pass that to another method. |
