You should ask yourself what you mean by a "pure" vb app and why it matters, since there probably isn't such a thing anyway.

These days there isn't really anything that qualifies as pure native code unless you write in C++ and have all of the system libraries statically linked.
- vb 6 relies on msvbvm60.dll which contains all of the vb framework plus numerous other dlls and ocxs.
- most c++ relies on msvcrt40.dll and other framework dlls.
- java relies on the jvm and the jre.
- .NET applications and libraries (including iTextSharp) rely on various framework assemblies that are part of the Common Language runtime and are stored in the GAC and are analogous to msvbmv60 but are more extensive.
- etc.

There are some 3rd party tool$ that will take all of the .NET assemblies neede for an app and turn them in to native (c++) code and package the whole thing as an exe but these products impose their own limitations and idiosyncrasies.

As to excel files, of course if you can get the data out of the excel file you can use it to write a pdf but I'm sure that how to manipulate excel files is a topic for another forum since it has nothing to do with iTextSharp.

Hello Everybody,

Is it possible to convert excel file into pdf using iTextSharp component? I
am also trying to see if this can be used in a standalone pure VB app and
not .NET app. 

Waiting for replies .

Thanks,

Re: Problem printing bold

Do you have non bold text to compare? All of the PDF prints fine, except the bold test prints as non bold. In the viewer font properties what fonts are there? I am using Foxit 2.0 to print out the PDFs, I did not see font properties there.

Re: Problem printing bold

Hi Nick, You may want to try using Adobe Reader to print your document. I have had issues with FoxIT in the past where the viewer is not 100% PDF compatible.

Re: Indentationleft problem

Dear Paulo, Thx for helping.. I find that it has no such a problem when the document is purely added with paragraph object. However, when added with pdfptable like the following code.... Scenario I : (3 times "Ginger") - RESULT : ginger.3times.pdf Paragraph paraGeneral; paraGeneral = new Paragraph(new Chunk("Ginger", fontEmail1)); paraGeneral.IndentationLeft = 30f; document.Add(paraGeneral); paraGeneral = new Paragraph(new Chunk("Ginger", fontEmail1)); paraGeneral.IndentationLeft = 30f; document.Add(paraGeneral); paraGeneral = new Paragraph(new Chunk("Ginger", fontEmail1)); paraGeneral.IndentationLeft = 30f; document.Add(paraGeneral); float[] headerwidths = { 102, 15, 354 }; PdfPTable pdfpTable1 = new PdfPTable(headerwidths); pdfpTable1.WidthPercentage = 100f; PdfPCell pdfpCell1; Phrase phraseTmp; pdfpTable1 = new PdfPTable(headerwidths); pdfpTable1.WidthPercentage = 100f; pdfpCell1 = new PdfPCell(); pdfpCell1.Border = 0; pdfpTable1.AddCell(pdfpCell1); pdfpCell1 = new PdfPCell(); pdfpCell1.Border = 0; pdfpTable1.AddCell(pdfpCell1); phraseTmp = new Phrase(new Chunk("Nishant Kumar", fontStudentName)); pdfpCell1 = new PdfPCell(phraseTmp); pdfpCell1.Border = 0; pdfpTable1.AddCell(pdfpCell1); pdfpTable1.SpacingBefore = 5f; document.Add(pdfpTable1); Scenario II : (1 time) - RESULT : ginger.1times.pdf Paragraph paraGeneral; paraGeneral = new Paragraph(new Chunk("Ginger", fontEmail1)); paraGeneral.IndentationLeft = 30f; document.Add(paraGeneral); /*paraGeneral = new Paragraph(new Chunk("Ginger", fontEmail1)); paraGeneral.IndentationLeft = 30f; document.Add(paraGeneral); paraGeneral = new Paragraph(new Chunk("Ginger", fontEmail1)); paraGeneral.IndentationLeft = 30f; document.Add(paraGeneral);*/ float[] headerwidths = { 102, 15, 354 }; PdfPTable pdfpTable1 = new PdfPTable(headerwidths); pdfpTable1.WidthPercentage = 100f; PdfPCell pdfpCell1; Phrase phraseTmp; pdfpTable1 = new PdfPTable(headerwidths); pdfpTable1.WidthPercentage = 100f; pdfpCell1 = new PdfPCell(); pdfpCell1.Border = 0; pdfpTable1.AddCell(pdfpCell1); pdfpCell1 = new PdfPCell(); pdfpCell1.Border = 0; pdfpTable1.AddCell(pdfpCell1); phraseTmp = new Phrase(new Chunk("Nishant Kumar", fontStudentName)); pdfpCell1 = new PdfPCell(phraseTmp); pdfpCell1.Border = 0; pdfpTable1.AddCell(pdfpCell1); pdfpTable1.SpacingBefore = 5f; document.Add(pdfpTable1); In scenario I, the "Ginger" will shift to the right side.
