Quick Start (SwaRef): Converting a PostScript file to a PDF document using the web service API

The following Java web service code example converts a PostScript file called Loan.ps to a PDF document calledLoan.pdf. (See Converting PostScript to PDF documents.)
/** 
    * Ensure that you create Java proxy files that consume 
    * the Assembler services  WSDL. You can use JAX-WS to create 
    * the proxy Java files.   
    *    
    * For information, see "Invoking LiveCycle using SwaRef" in Programming with LiveCycle.
