Need assistance/opinions with creating a PDF library page
I am creating a PDF library page and would like to find out if what I am proposing of doing is even possible.
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.
will be done in asp.net
