I am creating a PDF library page and would like to find out if what I am proposing of doing is even possible.<br />
<br />
I would like to create a page that displays a database driven display of all the PDFs we have. I want to display thumbnails of the front page of each PDF but don't want to create images; instead I want to thumbnail the actual PDF. I don't know what type of performance issues I'll be running into, if any, and I'd like to see if someone else has attempted this. I was thinking of using a product called PDFThumbnail. Let me know your thoughts, or share some snippets of code please. Thanks.<br />
<br />
will be done in asp.net<br />

Need assistance/opinions with creating a PDF library page

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications

ASP.NET

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.

.NET Programming

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.
