Generate PDF Service Java API Quick Start (SOAP) generate-pdf-service-java-api-quickstart-soap

Java API Quick Start(SOAP) is available for the Generate PDF service.

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Converting a Microsoft Word document to a PDF document using the Java API

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Converting HTML content to a PDF document using the Java API

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Converting a PDF document to an RTF file using the Java API (SOAP mode)

AEM Forms operations can be performed using the AEM Forms strongly typed API and the connection mode should be set to SOAP.

NOTE
Quick Start in Programming with AEM Forms are based on the Forms Server being deployed on JBoss Application Server and the Microsoft Windows operating system. However, if you are using another operating system, such as UNIX, replace Windows-specific paths with paths that are supported by the applicable operating system. Likewise, if you are using another J2EE application server, ensure that you specify valid connection properties. See Setting connection properties.

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Converting a Microsoft Word document to a PDF document using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-converting-a-microsoft-word-document-to-a-pdf-document-using-the-java-api

The following code example converts a Word file named Loan.doc to a PDF document named Loan.pdf. (See Converting Word Documents to PDF Documents.)

     * 3. adobe-usermanager-client.jar
     * 4. adobe-utilities.jar
     * 5. jboss-client.jar (use a different JAR file if the Forms Server is not deployed
     * on JBoss)
     * 6. activation.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 7. axis.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 8. commons-codec-1.3.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 9.  commons-collections-3.1.jar  (required for SOAP mode)
