I want to draw and export the file by manipulating com components in java, but I get an error when exporting. Example code and error are as follows:

 

code:

ActiveXComponent app = new ActiveXComponent("Illustrator.Application");
Dispatch.call(app, "open","D:\\pic\\ai\\init.ai").toDispatch();
Dispatch doc = Dispatch.get(app, "activeDocument").toDispatch();
Dispatch.call(doc, "exportFile", "D:\\test2.dwg",7);

 
error:

Exception in thread "main" com.jacob.com.ComFailException: Can't map name to dispid: exportFile
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.invokev(Native Method)
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.invokev(Dispatch.java:625)
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.callN(Dispatch.java:453)
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.call(Dispatch.java:541)

Hi @赵2669500597ir,

The error suggests that probably the method name is not correct. I don't have access to a WIN machine but I have seen that the method names in JS interface and COM interface are not always the same. So the first thing to check would be the COM interface and double check the method name
