Exporting to PDF

[Surya]

Hi

I tried by  exporting Grid view to PDF using "ExportToPDF" , but its not exported with the actual alignment as in Grid . the Column names are getting overlapped by shrinking its size and last column name is out of Grid Border .I attached the sample image of the exported PDF for your reference.


Following properties were setting:

                         objExportPDF.PdfExportSettings.EnablePrinting = true;
                        objExportPDF.ExportVisualSettings = true;
                        objExportPDF.TableBorderThickness = 0;
                        objExportPDF.Scale = 1.2f;
                        objExportPDF.PdfExportSettings.PageWidth = radGridStaticTable.Width / 2;
                        objExportPDF.PdfExportSettings.PageHeight = 210;

Please check following code in htmlCellformatting event :

void objExportPDF_HTMLCellFormatting(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.HTML.HTMLCellFormattingEventArgs e)
        {

            e.HTMLCellElement.Alignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleLeft;
            e.GridCellInfo.ColumnInfo.HeaderTextAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleLeft;
            e.HTMLCellElement.Styles.Add("border", "solid");

        }

Hello Surya,

Thank you for writing.

Currently, the export to PDF does not offer a way to enable auto ellipsis and there is no easy way to enable it for HTML. For the moment there is no workaround other than to try and reduce the amount of data that is being exported or to try and resize the columns in a way that will allow you to see all the content.

I hope this will be informative. If you have further questions, do not hesitate to write back.
