How i can export pdf file on client side

How i can export pdf file on client side(report not visible).Simulation of export button click

Hi Sergey,

If you refer to having the ReportViewer invisible and export that way - it is not possible, since you would not be able to obtain reference to its client object and invoke Export("pdf"). You have two options:

• have it hidden with style="display:none;"
• save the report programmatically like explained here: http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/article/b454K-mha-b454T-cge-b454c-cge.aspx

Hope these help.
Kind regards,

Hello Sergey,

Here is a snippet that should show you what I mean:

       <script type="text/javascript">
        function ExportPDF()
        {
            <%=ReportViewer1.ClientID %>.Export("pdf");
        }
    </script>
    <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Show Report" OnClientClick="ExportPDF(); return false;" />
        <div>
            <telerik:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer1" runat="server" style="display:none;" ShowZoomSelect="true" ZoomMode="PageWidth"
                Skin="Office2007"></telerik:ReportViewer>
                </div>

Hi Sergey,

Currently there is no client-side section in our help, but it would be available for the Q2 release scheduled for July 15th.

Hello Sergey,

Currently you can use the quickwatch to see what methods and properties does the reportviewer exposes (see screenshot). Simply add debugger; to your javascript and you can find all client-side relevant info.
