Preparation for ASP.NET HTML5 PDF Viewer & Editor Deployment on Azure

There are two ways for using HTML5 PDF Viewer and HTML5 PDF Editor on AzureCloudService project. One is to run RasterEdge_AzureCloudService Project directly, another is to integrate HTML5 PDF Viewer and Editor to a new AzureCloudSevice application. Following steps will guide you how to create a AzureCloudSevice project and add RasterEdge HTML5 Viewer or HTML PDF Editor to it.

Please note: In order to reduce the size of SDK package, all dlls are put into RasterEdge.DocImagSDK/Bin directory. All

Create an EdgePDF integrated AzureCloudService project

1. Create a new Azure Cloud Service project "EdgePDFAzureCloudService".

2. Add RasterEdge assemblies (all DLLs with name prefix 'RasterEdge' ).

All DLLs locates in the download package "/Bin", choose .NET 4.0, x64 dlls. Add all DLLs with prefix "RasterEdge" to the project reference.

3. Change the target platform to "x64"

4. Add a New Web Form Item "Default.aspx" to the project WebRole1.

Replace all contents in the file Default.aspx by the following codes.

File: Default.aspx

Replace all contents in the file Default.aspx.cs by the following codes.

File: Default.aspx.cs

using System;
using System.Web.Configuration;
using RasterEdge.WDP;
using RasterEdge.XDoc.PDF.HTML5Editor;

namespace WebRole1
{
    public partial class Default : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        public String MsgToClient = "";
        public String cacheFolder = WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("reCacheFolder");

        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            String command = Request.Form["RECommand"];
            if (command == null || command.Equals(""))
            {
                if (Request.Files.Count > 0)
                {
                    if (Request.Form["add"] != null)
                        UploadFileToAdd();
                    else
                        LoadFileFromUpload();
                }
                else if (Request.Form["src"] != null)
                    LoadFileFromOnline();
            }
        }

        public void LoadFileFromUpload()
        {
            PDFWebDocument webDoc = REProcessControl.CreateWebDocFromUpload(Request, null);
            REProcessControl.ResponseToClient(webDoc.MsgToClient, Response);
        }

        public void LoadFileFromOnline()
        {
            String src = Request.Form["src"];
            PDFWebDocument webDoc = REProcessControl.CreateWebDocFromOnLine(src, "", null);
            REProcessControl.ResponseToClient(webDoc.MsgToClient, Response);
        }

        public void UploadFileToAdd()
        {
            String msgToClient = REProcessControl.UploadInsertFile(Request);
            REProcessControl.ResponseToClient(msgToClient, Response);
        }
    }
}

5. Copy the folder "/DemoProjects/EdgePDF Demo Project/RasterEdge_Resource_Files" and all its contents to the sample project WebRole1.
