I want to convert an html string to pdf with images located at a specific location. I have the html code loaded into a string. I have the images that go with the html located in c:\temp\ . I can get this to work if I save the html string to a file as seen in the example below. I really dont need to write the html to a file. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm using the 3rd party component HiQPDF and I have already contacted them.
private void ConvertToPDF(string htmlbody, string pdfname)
{
HtmlToPdf htmlToPdfConverter = new HtmlToPdf();
// set a demo serial number
htmlToPdfConverter.SerialNumber = "-- HiQPdf Serial Number --";
htmlToPdfConverter.Document.Margins = new PdfMargins(5);
//doesnt work
htmlToPdfConverter.ConvertHtmlToFile(htmlbody, @"c:\temp\", pdfname);
//works just fine :-( , but it forces me to save to the disk
htmlToPdfConverter.ConvertUrlToFile(@"C:\temp\1Z7039680342477761-00a26b62-f6d3-47e3-92c3-18b907665aaa.html", pdfname);
return;
}

Set the base URL as file:///C:\temp/ instead of "c:\temp". This information comes directly from hiqpdf support.
