I'm working in a pilot project, exploring the use of PDFSharp. I took the HelloWorld code and made some changes to it to print some text before experimenting with more in depth changes. I compiled the HelloWorld application and that works fine as well. When I try and then run this compiled application on a client machine to test (.Net 2.0 installed, but no VS) it fails. I just put the HelloWorld.exe and PDFSharp.dll on the client machine. I tried using regasm.exe to register PDFSharp.dll, but it says that no libraries registered. What is necessary to install on a client to get this to run? |

You should deploy all assemblies found in the "HelloWorld\bin\Release" directory (or in the bin\Release directory of your project respectively). The original HelloWorld only needs HelloWorld.exe and PdfSharp.dll. Just copy them to the same directory (any directory) on the client machine. No registration required (XCopy deployment works). But for end-user applications you'd better create a Setup that checks the prerequisites (.NET Framework etc.). |

How can I deploy PdfSharp for VBscript development? I copied all DLL files to system32 directory and rebooted the PC but Windows still cannot recognize PdfDocument type. Is there any way to get the DLLs installed properly on Windows for VBscript?. Does anybody use PdfSharp in VbScript code? Thanks in advance for your help. DCB. |

Maybe Adobe Reader will help ... The PDFsharp DLLs allow other applications to open PDF files. But the DLLs won't register to handle PDF files themselves. |

Thanks Thomas for you quick response. I am looking for sample code/way to add bookmarks onto existing pdf documents using VbScript. All sample codes are written in VB. I need something simple in VBS to start with. I tried CS-Script after posting the question (http://www.csscript.net/) and it worked. However I still prefer to use VBS if it is possible because I don't need to install anything else on the machine and I almost know nothing about C#. What I am getting stuck now is to make PdfSharp classes visible to Wscript. It looks like copying DLL files to system32 won't work. DCB. |
