Quick Start (Base64): Converting a PDF document to an XDP document using the web service API

The following code example converts a PDF document to an XDP document. (See Converting PDF Documents into XDP Documents.)
/* 
    * Ensure that you create a .NET client assembly that uses  
    * base64 encoding. This is required to populate a BLOB  
    * object with data or retrieve data from a BLOB object. 
    *  
    * For information, see "Invoking LiveCycle using Base64 Encoding"  
    * in Programming with LiveCycle
