Export to Pdf Settings

[Felix]

Iam having a problem while exporting grid data to pdf. The page Title is not formatting Html escape chacters so that iI would have part of the title in a newline.

This is my code.
grid.ExportSettings.Pdf.PageTitle = "All Transactions Report" + "\n" + Report printed by User;


I would expect my output to be

All Transactions Report

Report printed by User

But my pdf is outputting

All Transactions Report Report printed by User

Any help will be appreciated

Hello Felix,

I'm afraid this is not possible since the PageTitle is rendered as a standard HTML title element - it does not support formatting and new lines. However, you could insert custom text and/or image at the top of the (first) page using the PdfExporting event.

Thanks,
Princy.

Hi Guys,
Thats for your feedback, however am requesting that you provide me with a code sample on how to insert custom text at the top of the first page using the PdfExporting event.

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi Felix,

I hope this code-snippets will be a good starting point for you:

protected void RadGrid1_PdfExporting(object source, GridPdfExportingArgs e)
{
     e.RawHTML = "<span style='color: blue'>Report</span>" + "<br/>"
        + "Date:"  + DateTime.Now.ToString()
        + e.RawHTML;
}
