Cannot convert MS Office files with MS Office Viewer

Post by buitrunghieu » Sun Aug 10, 2008 10:07 pm

I want to use Print2Flash to convert MS Office files on my server without installing MS Office. And I found a topic on your forum which tells me to use MS Office Viewer instead.
http://print2flash.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=4
I tried but the "No application is associated with the specified file for this operation" error below still occurs with no luck.

So, can I use MS Office Viewer and Print2Flash to convert MS Office documents or not ? If yes, can you show me how ?

Appreciate any help or guide. Thank you.

Here Print2Flash support team's response :
In that topic we meant not Office Viewers from Microsoft such as MS Word Viewer but viewers from third-parties if you can find them on the market. As far as we know, Office Viewers from Microsoft cannot be used for conversion of documents with Print2Flash as they do not support programmatic document printing.

For example, to convert Word documents you may use Text Maker Viewer (http://www.officeviewers.com). To view other types of document you may use OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org)
Thanks for your support.
