Hi,
I have a requirement to generate a PDF or a Word Document out of a xml file and SMTP to a server.
Is there any way we can acheive this using Broker. I am using MB 6.0.

Well.
If v6.0 has the EmailOutput node, then the "SMTP to a server" part is solved.
Otherwise, upgrade to a version that does.
As for creating a PDF or a Word document, no there is not direct support in Broker for this. That doesn't mean you can't run PHP or Java code that does this inside a Broker message flow. |

Thanks Jeff.
I might use xslt to do this conversion, but broker uses xslt 1.1 and xalan processor, I am not sure whether xslt 1.1 supports these conversions.
regards,
JD |

I believe it's a support pack in 6.0? you may have to go to 6.1 to have it in the product?  _________________ MQ & Broker admin |

If you don't see it in the toolkit, upgrade to 6.1
6.0 is going out of support. Start now. |
