Html to PDF with page break

Reply Quote

Is there a way to specify page breaks when using the save to pdf feature? It just makes one really long page.

Thanks,

Zach

Adam...any thoughts?

Also, I'm trying to get the pdf as a stream without having to save to a file. I have tried the following:

Dim test As New CuteEditor.Convertor.PDF.HTML2PDF("test")

But when I try to access the PDF property it throws an error. Am I doing something wrong?

Many Thanks,
Zach Parrish

Zach,

I am discussing this issue with the developer who is responsible for the PDF part. And will post an update soon.

>>Dim test As New CuteEditor.Convertor.PDF.HTML2PDF("test")

>>But when I try to access the PDF property it throws an error. Am I doing something wrong?

Try:

Dim test As New CuteEditor.Convertor.PDF.HTML2PDF("<html><body>test</body></html>")

Thanks Adam. Keep me posted.

I tried your suggestion above and it no longer throws an error. It will now save the file properly if I call the Save() function, but the PDF property is empty. Is there just not a way to get the pdf without saving it to disk first?

Thank You,

Zach

CuteEditor.Convertor.PDF.HTML2PDF html2pdf = new CuteEditor.Convertor.PDF.HTML2PDF(t);
html2pdf.Render();
html2pdf.Save(yourpath);

Right, that works fine, but I'm wanting to serve a pdf without having to save it to the hard drive. I have a report that generates dynamically, and I would like a create pdf button that just takes that html and creates a byte array or something that I can just response.write to the client without having to save it.

Thanks,

Zach

The initial post is old, but try this :

HttpContext.Current.Response.ClearContent();
HttpContext.Current.Response.ClearHeaders();
HttpContext.Current.Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
HttpContext.Current.Response.AppendHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName);

System.IO.MemoryStream stmMemory = new System.IO.MemoryStream();

CuteEditor.Convertor.PDF.HTML2PDF convertor = new CuteEditor.Convertor.PDF.HTML2PDF(Server.HtmlDecode(this.RTE.XHTML));

convertor.RenderSinglePageContent = false;
convertor.Render();

convertor.Save(stmMemory);

stmMemory.WriteTo(HttpContext.Current.Response.OutputStream);
stmMemory.Close();
stmMemory.Dispose();

Response.End();
