Generate report from byte array

[sg]

Hi,

In my angular program, I am using kendo-angular-upload to allow user upload multiple PDF files or images then uploaded file details (file name, extension, size, content type, file content) are save into database. The file contents are saved in byte array format.

I need a "Print All Files" button to combine all uploaded documents (can be combination of PDF files / images) then user can download / print in one click. So I am thinking to generate all uploaded document in one Telerik Report and user can view / download / print from there.

Below are my questions:

> Is there any way I can generate report from byte array? If can, kindly provide example.

> Is there any way I can combine multiple records of byte array into 1 report? If can, kindly provide example.

Thank you.

Correction: the content of PDF / images is stored as varbinary in database

Hi sg,

The Telerik Reporting engine can render data-driven reports with a design described in a Telerik Reporting report definition that is a descriptive report (TRDP or TRDX file), or a CLR class inheriting from the base Telerik.Reporting.Report class - see Designing Reports article.

Our reporting tool cannot generate reports from other documents like PDF files. You may include an image in a report definition through the PictureBox report item. However, this is not possible for a PDF document.

You may try to achieve the requirement with the Telerik Document Processing Libraries.
