JsReport .NET Core - Generate PDF from url

Asked 2020-Apr-04 at 13:30

Trying to use JsReport to generate a pdf from a url but can't find any documentation or examples in their github repo.

Basically I need to generate the pdf and attach it to an email and I've managed to get data back as a byte[], but I can't seem to figure out how to use an existing View/Action.

This is the action that generates the PDF for viewing...

Is it possible to align the text in the center in the combo box?

Asked 2019-Sep-10 at 19:03

I am using the Foxit PhantomPDF program and created the combo box. The Foxit PhantomPDF program only lets you align text to the right or left. I want to know if you can align the text to be center aligned in the combo box using Javascript.

I tried to align using just one line of code:

Probably it's something related to the impersonation, so if the code not executed under a specific impersonation context and all of the code runs through the IIS Impersonation so we may need to make some trails related to the AppPool:

Try to change the impersonation in your AppPool to admin user:

IIS > Application Pools > Advanced Settings > Identity (and change it to the Admin account).

Give the directory which contains the rendering stuff an everyone permission.

Also, as per your comment, The local system has the highest privilege while network service or ApplicationPoolIdentity has the least-privilege to execute the application so that's why local system can solve most of the impersonation issues .

QUESTION

converting an HTML page to a PDF

Asked 2018-Apr-23 at 20:03

Conceptually, this is simple.

I have an HTML page. I want it in PDF form. I pull up Foxit's PhantomPDF and convert the file.

Problems:

It goes too wide and gets its sides shaved off (mainly on the right)
It doesn't know what it's reading, so I have page breaks literally cutting words in half horizontally.

How do I successfully convert an HTML page to a PDF and avoid these issues?

Thanks.

Answered 2018-Apr-23 at 20:03

So the answer to this ended up being a combination of a few things.

1) I had to edit the CSS to make sure images were actually staying within the bounds of the "100%" of the page. I added CSS to make sure all images maxed out at 90%. This prevented any side-to-side scrolling on the page and prevented anything getting cut off in the PDF.

2) I went into the Page Setup section off of the File menu in the browser, went to the "Margins and Footers" tab and there were the places that were inscribing things like date/url/page number. I blanked all those out and all was good.

3) The trickiest part was making sure it split pages in the correct places. I finally learned about the CSS properties called page-break-before and page-break-inside. I created classes with each of these set like so:

You FileStream isn't closed when OnAfterRender has completed meaning no other app can open/access it. Try changing the code to put a using block around the File.OpenWrite call to contain a using statement for the FileStream e.g.

Embedding fonts in Editable PDF

Asked 2017-Aug-21 at 18:44

I have produced a pdf document with Latex (a survey), then I used Foxit PhantomPDF to make that PDF editable (so that I can send it via mail). To do that I used the 'Form': 'Text Fiel'; and I choose a particular font in the Properties. I sent the file to a friend and he completed the survey, but the font that he saw was different from mine. What can I do so that everyone sees the font that I want?

(The font that I choose is embeddable, and I tried to convert the pdf to ps and then with adobe Distiller 7.0 convert it to pdf embedding the font. These 2 sistems didn't work)

PhantomPDF doesn't embed fonts for use in form filling... at least not correctly... and none that I've ever tried. Use Adobe Acrobat DC to add the fields. When you select a font that can be embedded, it will be embedded so that recipients of the form will be able to edit the fields using the same font that you specified. Of course, they also need to use a PDF viewer that is capable of using the embedded font you specified. Many... probably most... won't... but Adobe Reader does.

Vulnerabilities

CVE-2019-20816 HIGH

An issue was discovered in Foxit PhantomPDF before 8.3.12. It has a NULL pointer dereference during the parsing of file data.

https://www.foxitsoftware.com/support/security-bulletins.php

CVE-2019-20820 HIGH

An issue was discovered in Foxit Reader and PhantomPDF before 9.7. It has a NULL pointer dereference during the parsing of file data.

https://www.foxitsoftware.com/support/security-bulletins.php

CVE-2018-18688 MEDIUM

The Portable Document Format (PDF) specification does not provide any information regarding the concrete procedure of how to validate signatures. Consequently, an Incremental Saving vulnerability exists in multiple products. When an attacker uses the Incremental Saving feature to add pages or annotations, Body Updates are displayed to the user without any action by the signature-validation logic. This affects Foxit Reader before 9.4 and PhantomPDF before 8.3.9 and 9.x before 9.4. It also affects LibreOffice, Master PDF Editor, Nitro Pro, Nitro Reader, Nuance Power PDF Standard, PDF Editor 6 Pro, PDFelement6 Pro, PDF Studio Viewer 2018, PDF Studio Pro, Perfect PDF 10 Premium, and Perfect PDF Reader.

CVE-2020-28203 MEDIUM

An issue was discovered in Foxit Reader and PhantomPDF 10.1.0.37527 and earlier. There is a null pointer access/dereference while opening a crafted PDF file, leading the application to crash (denial of service).

https://www.foxitsoftware.com/support/security-bulletins.php

CVE-2019-6752 MEDIUM

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on vulnerable installations of Foxit PhantomPDF 9.3.10826. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of PDF documents. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated object. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-7620.

CVE-2020-17410 HIGH

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Foxit PhantomPDF 10.0.0.35798. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of GIF files. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-11135.

CVE-2020-17415 HIGH

This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Foxit PhantomPDF 10.0.0.35798. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the handling of the configuration files used by the Foxit PhantomPDF Update Service. The issue results from incorrect permissions set on a resource used by the service. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-11308.
