Custom PDF export templates?

[James]

When using the PDF export function is there a way to customize the export? 

For example, in my scheduler component I currently specify a kendoSchedulerEventTemplate to render my events.  I have use cases where when I export, I may want to have additional information rendered for each event. 

So I was thinking if there was something like an export template kendoSchedulerExportEventTemplate (for example) so when I use the export function it uses that template for rendering instead.

 

Does that functionality currently exist?

Hi James,

If I understand correctly, the desired functionality involves displaying some information in the generated PDF output only (that should not be visible in the Scheduler event template, rendered in the browser). To achieve this, you can utilize the approach, demonstrated in the following section of our PDF Export documentation:

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/pdfexport/content-styling/

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/pdfexport/content-styling/#toc-using-the-pdf-document-element

Add the desired PDF-only elements in the Scheduler template in a wrapper styled such that it is not visible on the web page, but is visible in the PDF document, e.g.:

I hope this helps, but if I am missing something, please describe the desired functionality/layout in further details, so I can try providing a solution that is best suitable to the specific use case. Thank you in advance.
