Hi all,

Were using Telerik libraries for .Net Framework are trying to import an existing docx file and then export it as a PDF. While doing this we noticed that after importing the docx file using DocxFormatProvider the existing table on the docx file selects the wrong theme.

We want to use 'Grid Table 4 - Accent 5' but after the import, the table style gets converted to 'Grid Table 4 - Accent 1'. We can't really specify a direct table style since the document that will be imported and converted to a PDF can have different table styles.

Is there a way to make this work with our current table style and other table styles? Here's the nuget packages we currently have installed to the project

And here's the code we are using

public static byte[] ConvertDocxToPdf(byte[] inputStream, Core.Models.Common.Document.Watermark watermark = null)
        {
            var docxFormatProvider = new DocxFormatProvider();
            var radFixedDocumentProvider = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Pdf.PdfFormatProvider();

            var radFlowDocument = docxFormatProvider.Import(inputStream);
            var radFlowDocumentEditor = new RadFlowDocumentEditor(radFlowDocument);

            if (watermark != null)
            {
                var watermarkSettings = new TextWatermarkSettings()
                {
                    Text = watermark?.Text,
                    FontFamily = new System.Windows.Media.FontFamily(watermark.FontName),
                    Angle = watermark.Angle,
                    Height = watermark.FontHeight,
                    Width = watermark.FontWidth,
                    ForegroundColor = ToMediaColor(watermark.Color),
                    Opacity = watermark.Opacity
                };

                var textWatermark = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.Model.Watermarks.Watermark(watermarkSettings);
                for (int i = 0; i < radFlowDocumentEditor.Document.Sections.Count(); i++)
                {
                    var sectionToModify = radFlowDocumentEditor.Document.Sections[i];
                    var header = sectionToModify.Headers.Default;
                    var copyWatermark = textWatermark.Clone();

                    if (header == null)
                    {
                        header = sectionToModify.Headers.Add(HeaderFooterType.Default);
                    }

                    radFlowDocumentEditor.SetWatermark(copyWatermark, header);
                }
            }

            return radFixedDocumentProvider.Export(radFlowDocument);
        }

Also, here's the table we are importing


And after importing as a RadFlowDocument, if we do radFlowDocumentEditor.Export and then save the bytes as a docx file, this is the resulted table 


Thanks in advance!

I am receiving an error when trying to convert a word doc to a PDF.

Here is the code:

var docxPRovider = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Docx.DocxFormatProvider();
var pdfProvider = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Pdf.PdfFormatProvider();

var docBytes = File.ReadAllBytes(path);
var document = docxPRovider.Import(docBytes);

var testFile = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop), "test.pdf");
var resultBytes = pdfProvider.Export(document);
File.WriteAllBytes(testFile, resultBytes);

Here is the error:

Could not load type 'System.Windows.Point' from assembly 'WindowsBase, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'.
   at Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.Export.PdfExportSettings..ctor()
   at Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Pdf.Export.PdfExportSettings..ctor()
   at Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Pdf.PdfFormatProvider..ctor()

The line in bold is where the error occurs. I verified I have WindowsBase and System.Windows as references in my project.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi everyone,

in my company we are using Telerik WordProcessing to handle some docx templates by replacing placeholder in there with values we took from DB. Everything works well when we use ReplaceText of RadFlowDocumentEditor except when we have a string that contains '\n' character.

Basically, for a string like "Ipsum\nDolor\nSit\nAmet" when we call ReplaceText on a particular placeholder, we got a situation like this

Ipsum

Dolor

Sit

Amet

which seems look ok, but unfortunately just the first row keeps the font style that placeholder has, the others instead doesn't and fallback to default style.

Any idea how to solve this?

Thank you very much for your attention

Hi

are there any experiences with using the DocumentProcessing libraries in a Linux / k8s cloud env?

A lot of .net libraries have issued with this because they have a system.drawing reference.

In the documentation, I didn't find anything about this.

I plan to u see the document processing library in a .net 6 / c# web API project running in a linux docker image .,

are there any pitfalls?

many thanks in advance

public static void AddLabel(TableRow quartersRow1, string Label, alignment.HorizontalAlignment LabelAlignment = alignment.HorizontalAlignment.Right,  double Labelpreferwidth = 0, int labelColSpan = 1, double LabelFontSize = 10, bool ShowBorder = false)
        {
            TableCell Labelcell = quartersRow1.Cells.AddTableCell();
            Labelcell.PreferredWidth = Labelpreferwidth;
            Labelcell.ColumnSpan = labelColSpan;
            if (ShowBorder) Labelcell.Borders = new TableCellBorders(border, border, border, border);
            Block Lblock = Labelcell.Blocks.AddBlock();
            Lblock.HorizontalAlignment = LabelAlignment;
            Lblock.TextProperties.FontSize = LabelFontSize;
            Lblock.InsertText(genericfontfamily, FontStyles.Normal, FontWeights.Bold, Label ?? "");
            
        }

We have recently migrated our application from .Net framework to .Net Core. Earlier the label we used to print in the PDF were bold, but now since we have migrated the application the bold font is showing as normal font.

The code mentioned above was giving the bold fonts for the labels in the PDF.  

Can you please let me know what changes would be needed here for the desired output.

I would like to format a range of cells in an Excel Worksheet that are already part of a named range. How is it possible to format this table in the Excel worksheet with banded rows? I want it just like Excel does it for a table formatting.

Is this banding of rows possible with the present Telerik SpreadProcessing library?

Hi,

I'm working on document word processing. My task is quite simple, basically I need to take a DOCX template, manipulate it by replacing some fields, with values taken from other parts, and adding some TableRow on it and, finally, I need to export it into PDF format.

This works but unfortunaley the PDF I see is not equal to the docx template from where I start, so do you know some workaround that may help me to fix this issue.

Thank you for your attention.

Hi Telerik,

I saw there is a property to exclude the hidden sheets here and here.

But, when I tried to see it in the code, I didn't find it.

I'm using version 2019.3.1021.

Is it not available on my version?

If yes, is there any workaround?

Thank you.

Hi

Is there a way to get the un rounded .Net double value of a formula cell?

Instead of using the GetResultValueAsString method used in the examples:

Workbook workbook = new Workbook(); 
Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets.Add(); 
worksheet.Cells[0, 0].SetValue("=SUM(A2, 3)"); 
worksheet.Cells[1, 0].SetValue(10); 
ICellValue cellValue = worksheet.Cells[0, 0].GetValue().Value; 
CellValueFormat format = worksheet.Cells[0, 0].GetFormat().Value; 
 
string valueAsString = cellValue.GetValueAsString(format); // =SUM(A2, 3) 
string resultValue = cellValue.GetResultValueAsString(format); // 13
