Printing a PDF-File without print preview

[Gerhard]

Hello,

my goal is to print a PDF-File directly to a printer without showing the print preview.

 

This is what I tried:

 

rpd = new RadPrintDocument();

rpd.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = "printer";

rViewer = new RadPdfViewer();
rViewer.LoadDocument(sFileName);                
rViewer.DocumentLoaded += rViewer_DocumentLoaded;       

 

static void rViewer_DocumentLoaded(object sender, EventArgs e)

{
    //rViewer.PrintPreview(rpd);
      rViewer.Print(false, rpd);

}

 

When I send it directly to the printer ( rViewer.Print(false, rpd); ) it always prints it in portrait-format.

When I use rViewer.PrintPreview(rpd); and then press the Print-Button, it works. 

 

Does anybody have an idea? Thank you!

Hi Gerhard,

Thank you for writing.

You have two alternative options:

• set the PrintOrientation of your RadPdfViewer instance to LandScape ​

  this.radPdfViewer1.PrintOrientation = PrintOrientation.Landscape;

• Set the Landscape property of the RadPrintDocument to true.

  RadPrintDocument rpd = new RadPrintDocument();
  rpd.AssociatedObject = this.radPdfViewer1;
  rpd.Landscape = true;
  this.radPdfViewer1.Print(false, rpd);

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Regards,
Hristo
