How to Convert Base64 to PDF through X++

Moved from Dynamics AX forum.

I'll assume that you have a string containing contents of a PDF file encoded with Base64. If not, then your question doesn't make sense.

There are several ways how to convert a Base64 string to an X++ container or .NET byte array. For example, you can use base64str2con() method.

This thread is just about How to Convert Base64 to PDF through X++, but let me give you a hint for your next step, i.e. sending to a printer. You will find an example in How-to send PDF document to a printer from X++.
