use IornPdf dll in python
To use the IronPDF DLL in Python, you can leverage the pythonnet
package, which allows you to interact with .NET assemblies from Python. Here's an example of how you can use the IronPDF DLL in Python:
Install the required packages:
- Open a command prompt or terminal.
- Install the
pythonnet
package by running the following command:pip install pythonnet
Import and use the IronPDF DLL in Python:
Create a Python script and import the necessary modules:
pythonimport clr
clr.AddReference('IronPdf')
from IronPdf import HtmlToPdf
Use the IronPDF DLL to convert an HTML file to a PDF:
pythondef convert_html_to_pdf(input_file, output_file):
pdf = HtmlToPdf()
pdf.RenderHtmlAsPdf(open(input_file).read()).SaveAs(output_file)
convert_html_to_pdf('input.html', 'output.pdf')
In this example, we import the
HtmlToPdf
class from the IronPDF assembly. We then define a functionconvert_html_to_pdf
that takes an input HTML file path and an output PDF file path. Inside the function, we create an instance ofHtmlToPdf
, use itsRenderHtmlAsPdf
method to convert the HTML to PDF, and save the resulting PDF usingSaveAs
.Make sure you have the IronPDF DLL (
IronPdf.dll
) available and accessible in your Python environment.
Please note that the pythonnet
package provides a bridge between Python and .NET, allowing you to use .NET libraries from Python. However, some DLLs may have dependencies on other .NET assemblies or require additional configuration. Refer to the IronPDF documentation or contact the IronPDF support team for specific guidance on using their DLL with Python.
