b. Use isimSoftware PDF to Doc's CLI in Your Own Application/Script/BAT on Your Licensed PCs:

First, need to install isimSoftware PDF to Doc on your licensed PCs, and then simply use the Shell function (or other similar functions) to do it.

This is VB.NET sample code (in VB.NET, two " indicate one actual "), FYI:

Shell("""C:\Program Files\isimSoftware\isimSoftware PDF to DOC\isimSoftware PDF to Doc"" ""-i:H:\Books\C 11 D.pdf"" -o:H:\", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)

Shell("""C:\Program Files\isimSoftware\isimSoftware PDF to DOC\isimSoftware PDF to Doc"" -i:H:\Books\C11D.pdf -o:H:\", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)

c. Deploy isimSoftware PDF to Doc's CLI with Your Application/Script/BAT Outside the Scope of Your Licensed PCs:

In this case, do NOT need to install isimSoftware PDF to Doc on the PCs that you want to deploy to. And you should purchase isimSoftware PDF to DOC Redistributable CLI, click here to know more details.

Once bought, just deploy the received files under your application or any other place as you need, and then you will have the ability to use it like this (VB.NET code):

Shell("D:\MyApp\isimSoftware PDF to Doc\isimSoftware PDF to Doc -i:H:\Books\C11D.pdf -o:H:\", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)

a. Very easy to use, even only need to specify a PDF to convert.

b. Please use space to separate each arguments, if the full path of isimSoftware PDF to Doc.exe or any argument's value has the spaces, you must use "" to delimit it (include argument name). E.g. "-i:F:\test folder\test 1.pdf"

c. Please use : to separate argument name and value, and there is no space on the left and right of the colon. E.g. -o:D:\test

d. If you passed twice or more for a same argument, isimSoftware PDF to Doc only uses the last passed value. E.g. isimSoftware PDF to Doc -i:F:\test.pdf -i:F:\test1.pdf, isimSoftware PDF to Doc will convert F:\test1.pdf.

e. CLI Supports multi-language also, even in the log file.

f. Note that the permission problem on Vista+ OS, in order to avoid UAC prompt, we recommend you use the general paths to store input PDFs, output files and logs, do not use the system drive as best.

g. How to convert more than one PDFs or convert in a folder? Just use the "for" or other loops in your programming language.

"E:\Program Files\isimSoftware\isimSoftware PDF to DOC\isimSoftware PDF to Doc" -i:f:\test.pdf

"E:\Program Files\isimSoftware\isimSoftware PDF to DOC\isimSoftware PDF to Doc" -i:f:\test.pdf -o:f:\test -f:DOC
