Create thumbnails from MS Word compatible documents and present them in a Silverlight 4.0 carousel application.
The Imaging Source has released a new live sample that shows how to render document pages in a Silverlight 4.0 application:
http://labs.textcontrol.com/live/server/silverlight/
This sample ASP.NET Web application uses TX Text Control .NET Server's Page Rendering Engine to create thumbnails from MS Word compatible documents that are presented in a Silverlight 4.0 carousel application.
The Silverlight application requests the images from a WCF Web Service. This WCF Web Service uses TX Text Control .NET Server's Page Rendering Engine to create high resolution images that are rendered by Silverlight using a simple System.Windows.Controls.Image control.
The Imaging Source was founded in Germany in 1991 under the name DBS (Digitale Bildverarbeitung und Systementwicklung). A few months after opening a branch in Charlotte, NC, USA, the company changed its name to The Imaging Source to address a worldwide market. The Imaging Source has been developing TX Text Control since its inception in 1991, but an equally important part of the company's expertise, which is reflected in the name, is the creation of complete imaging systems.
