How can we print the report in UWP app?

[Tursunkhuja]

Hi,

We have UWP app that contains WebView element to show Telerik report. The WebView has HTML5ReportViewer which communicates via Telerik Rest Service to show the report. There are two questions I have in UWP.

- First question is how to download report?

- Second question is how to print the report(with having some printer settings in UWP)?

Hello Tursunhuja,

We are aware of the problems with export and print in UWP when utilizing the Html5 Viewer. Note that we do not officially support UWP. You may vote for the feature request Report Viewer for Windows Store Apps to increase its priority.

A workaround is to use the REST Service API or ReportProcessor to export the report with custom code. Note that printing is actually export in PDF with injected Adobe Javascript for printing the file once it is loaded by a PDF plugin in the browser - Print a report directly at client-side without displaying it in a Viewer.
