Muhimbi's SharePoint Blog: PDF Converter for SharePoint 3.2 – With new support for Office 2010

PDF Converter for SharePoint 3.2 – With new support for Office 2010

Posted at: 11:02 AM on 24 February 2010 by Muhimbi

We are very excited to announce the new version of the Muhimbi PDF Converter for SharePoint. The main change in this version is support for Office 2010 based converters and file formats.

We are quite surprised by the number of customers asking for Office 2010 support, especially considering that at the time of writing it is still in beta. On the other hand, it appears to be very stable and particularly the improvements in converting InfoPath forms to PDF format make it worth considering.

Visualizing Data using XSLT: Following up on SPC 2009’s session on Building SharePoint Mashups With SPD, Bing Maps and REST Services

There’s been a lot of interest in the demo that was done at the SharePoint Conference where we used XSLT to visualize a contact list as a map. We have existing information out there on this topic so we wanted to bring it all together in one blog entry. I’ll also walk through the XSL file that was used in our demo and provide some pointers on how to use it for your own development.

SharePoint Designer 2010 New Shell Tour

Welcome to SharePoint Designer 2010! As Todd Haugen mentioned in his latest blog, we’ve got a number of wonderful features this release and we’re really excited to get them into your hands. This is a follow-up blog to dive into the new shell, or user interface, of SPD 2010. I think this is one of the greatest enhancements for the 2010 release. The new shell of SPD 2010 targets new and old users alike by highlighting SharePoint artifacts (not the folder structure they’re stored in), presenting key information you want to know about those artifacts, bubbling the tools and commands up to the Ribbon, and giving you intuitive navigation to explore, modify, and create rich and powerful SharePoint sites.

Create External Content Types using SharePoint Designer 2010

External Content Types section within SharePoint Designer lets us define connections to Line of Business data that we have access to as a developer, designer or admin of that site. Once the connection is defined, business analysts can use that connection to create what’s called External Lists which shows the content of what the connection is attached to (for example a table in a database).
