Base64 Decode

[nondrinker]

I have an ASP page, where i am trying to decode a base64 file back to its origianl pdf format. In another process, i am already able to convert the pdf file to base64, but now i was wondering if there is any code out there where i can decode the file back to the original pdf?

Thank you.

If that is ASP.Net heres some c# code I wrote a little while ago:

public string base64Decode(string data)
{
    try
    {
        System.Text.UTF8Encoding encoder = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding();  
        System.Text.Decoder utf8Decode = encoder.GetDecoder();
    
        byte[] todecode_byte = Convert.FromBase64String(data);
        int charCount = utf8Decode.GetCharCount(todecode_byte, 0, todecode_byte.Length);    
        char[] decoded_char = new char[charCount];
        utf8Decode.GetChars(todecode_byte, 0, todecode_byte.Length, decoded_char, 0);                   
        string result = new String(decoded_char);
        return result;
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
        throw new Exception("Error in base64Decode" + e.Message);
    }
}

HTH,
