Solution 3: Run conversion via "docPrint_Service.exe" application, please look at Example #7 from this web page,
https://www.verydoc.com/doc-to-any-shell.html
Example #7 (Run conversion via "docPrint_Service.exe" application),
docPrint Service can be used to run a Command Line from current active user account or a special user account, this tool is useful to overcome permission restrictions in SYSTEM and Non-Interactive user accounts.
Please by following steps to use docPrint Service,
1. Download docPrint_Service.zip and unzip it to a folder,
2. Run docPrint_Service.exe application, you will see an icon appear in tray area,
3. You can run following command lines to test it first, "docPrint_client.exe" will deliver the Command Line to docPrint_Service.exe application, docPrint_Service.exe application will execute the Command Line from active user account automatically,
docPrint_client.exe nowait "C:\VeryDOC\doc2any.exe" C:\test.doc C:\out.pdf
docPrint_client.exe wait "C:\VeryDOC\doc2any.exe" C:\test.doc C:\out.pdf
4. You can call "docPrint_client.exe" from your code, please refer to a simple C# code at below,
public partial class rundoc2any: System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Process proc = new Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "C:\\VeryDOC\\docPrint_client.exe";
string strArguments = "wait C:\\VeryDOC\\doc2any.exe C:\\test.doc C:\\test.pdf";
Console.WriteLine(strArguments);
proc.StartInfo.Arguments = @strArguments;
proc.Start();
proc.WaitForExit();
Response.Write("File has been successfully converted");
}
}
5. Close Remote Desktop and leave this user logged in.
*Please Notice: After you reboot the server, you need login your server via Remote Desktop with this user account ("doc2pdf_service.exe" was installed inside this user account), and close Remote Desktop, leave this user logged in, when you call docPrint_client.exe application, the conversion will be executed from this user account automatically.
