Adding filename breaks Multi Page Export

[Ken]

Adding

cem.set_pdfSettings({ fileName: "xxxx.pdf" });

To the export function stops the multi page only the first page is exported

Hi Ken,

When you are using .set_pdfSettings() client-side method, you actually override the PDF settings of your RadClientExportManager. So if you set only fileName, the pageBreakSelector will no longer be in the settings of the RadClientExportManager. Here you may find a screen-shot, showing this.

In your case, in order the multi-page functionality to work, you must use the following code:

cem.set_pdfSettings({fileName: "PDF-Export", pageBreakSelector: ".pageBreak"})

where .pageBreak is the class of the element on which you want to break the page.

You may find more information on Client-side programming in the following help article:

Hope this will be helpful.

Ok I will try that. But then this statement does not apply....

important
 It is not required to change all available properties. For example in your pdfSettings object you can set only the filename

Hi Ken,

Yes, that statement doesn't apply in this case, because pageBreakSelector is not a standard setting and it doesn't have a default value. So when you are adding PDF settings to the RadClientExportManager, if you don't specify for example "fileName", the file's name will be the default one. But if you don't specify the setting like pageBreakSelector, the page will not be exported in more than one page, because this is not set by default.
