Request Object Name : PDFRenderRequest
Code Snippet :
//STEP1: Create the QuarkXPress Server Request Context and set the nescessary properties
sdk.QRequestContext requestCtx = new sdk.QRequestContext();
boolean responseAsURL = false;
requestCtx.setDocumentName(docName);
//STEP 2(SPECIFIC TO REQUESTS):Create the PDF renderer request and embed it in the
request context. the request context.
PDFRenderRequest pdfreq = new PDFRenderRequest();
pdfreq.setAuthor(request.getParameter("Author"));
pdfreq.setTitle(request.getParameter("Title"));
pdfreq.setLayout(request.getParameter("Layout"));
pdfreq.setSpread(request.getParameter("Spread"));
pdfreq.setPage(request.getParameter("mPage"));
pdfreq.setPages(request.getParameter("Pages"));
if( strLowResolution !=null && strLowResolution.equals("True"))
pdfreq.setLowResolution("true");
requestCtx.setRequest(pdfreq);
//STEP3: Create the WIG service and call the processRequest() API
QManagerSDKSvcServiceLocator serviceLocator = new
QManagerSDKSvcServiceLocator();
QManagerSDKSvc service = serviceLocator.getqxpsmsdk();
sdk.QContentData data = service.processRequest(requestCtx);
Please refer to the samples for further details on the use of the WIG object model.
