IMPORTANT:

1. Be sure to use this PHP7 example on Windows. We use the .NET COM Assembly, so we need Windows!

2. Be sure to have 7-PDF Printer installed first.

3. Be sure that you have associated a Default Application for the following file types (BMP, DOCX, PPTX, XSLX, TXT) on your Windows System
   The default application will be used to print out the documents to the pdf printer...
   
4. Be sure to have installed PHP 7 (recommended) and extracted it to C:\PHP7. 

5. If necessary: You can use that public manual for some more informations installing PHP 7 on Windows: http://kizu514.com/blog/install-php7-and-composer-on-windows-10/

6. Be sure to activate the following extension in PHP.ini extension=php_com_dotnet.dll !!!

7. Put C:\PHP7 to your Path ENV_VAR if you like it a bit easier to run PHP from console 

8. Run it on the windows shell (console) like:

C:\PHP7\php.exe [PATH_ON_YOUR_SYSTEM]\Converter.php
