High processing time - HtmlFormatProvider.import()

Hello,
I'm importing an html which contains table (100x6), This process is becoming very time consuming when my cells have borders. See the times below:

Code:

var provider = new HtmlFormatProvider();

Provider.Import(html);

With borders => 12 seconds (https://jsfiddle.net/kya78c0m/)
No borders => 1 seconds (https://jsfiddle.net/3eucxd2e/)

Is there any way to reduce this time when I'm using borders?

NotImplementedException processing PDF

Hi,

We are getting the following exception when importing a PDF:with version 2016.2.815

Type: System.NotImplementedException
Message: The method or operation is not implemented.

TargetSite: Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.Model.Elements.ColorSpaces.ColorBase GetColor(Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.Model.Types.PdfArray)

   at Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.PdfFormatProvider.ImportOverride(Stream input)

I assume there is something about the PDF and its colours that is not supported in the PdfProcessing classes. Any idea what that might be and how we can work around it?

Report / DocProcessing / Word Template ??

I have a report that is currently generated by hand. It is a 4 page report that is done by hand in Word. Each page has text, images and dynamic data (some of which is inside paragraphs of text, bullet lists etc. On page 4 is a data table. I am trying to figure out the best approach to automate this report. Should I use a Telerik Report, DocProcessing to generate it (which seems tedious with a RadFixedDocument), a word or html template?? Any suggestions?

How to tell how big zip file will be

Hi,

I have a situation where I need to send a fairly large amount of data via zip files by email.

The company server limits emails to 4 mg in size, so I can't send one big zip file that, for example, might be 10mg.

I need to:

1. create a zip file

2. add a file to it

3. test how big the zip file is.

4. if it's larger than 4 mg, back out the file I just added use the< 4mg file to attach to the email.

5. Lather, rinse, repeat until all files have been sent.

How do I tell what the current size of the zip file will be after adding a file to it but before I close the archive?

01.MailMessage mail;

02.long currentZipSize = 0;

03.int attIdx = 0;

04.// Get the selected attachments

05.var q = from a in db.Attachments

06. where rptParms.AttachmentIds.Contains(a.AttachmentId)

07. select a;

08.List<Models.Attachment> lstSel = q.ToList();

09.int i;

10.mail = new MailMessage();

11.using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())

12.{

13.using (ZipArchive zArchive = new ZipArchive(ms, ZipArchiveMode.Create, true))

14.{

15. var lrEntry = zArchive.CreateEntry("LabReport.pdf", CompressionLevel.Fastest);

16. using (BinaryWriter bw = new BinaryWriter(lrEntry.Open()))

17. {

18. bw.Write(result.DocumentBytes, 0, result.DocumentBytes.Length);

19. bw.Flush();

20. }

21. currentZipSize = zArchive.GetSize; // ************* how do I get this size?

22. Models.Attachment att1;

23.

24. // Add them to teh zip

25. for(i = attIdx; i < lstSel.Count; i++)

26. {

27. att1 = lstSel[i];

28. ZipArchiveEntry zEntry = zArchive.CreateEntry(att1.FileName, CompressionLevel.Fastest);

29. using (var f = File.Open(att1.FullPathDecorated, FileMode.Open))

30. {

31. using (Stream entryStream = zEntry.Open())

32. {

33. f.CopyTo(entryStream);

34.// ************* how do I get this size? when I run this I get an error

35.// *************

36. currentZipSize += zEntry.CompressedLength;

37. }

38. // if the size is too big for the mail server back out the last file

39. if (currentZipSize > 4000000)

40. {

41. currentZipSize -= zEntry.CompressedLength;

42. zArchive.GetEntry(att1.FileName).Delete();

43.

44. ms.Seek(currentZipSize, SeekOrigin.Begin);

45. SendMail(mail, rptParms, ms, zArchive, af.CustomKey, emailCnt++);

46. currentZipSize = 0;

47. attIdx--;

48. }

49. else

50. attIdx++;

51. }

52. }

53.

54.

55.}

56.//byte[] buf = ms.GetBuffer();

57.//Buffer.BlockCopy(buf, numberOfBytesToRemove, buf, 0, (int)ms.Length - numberOfBytesToRemove);

58.//ms.SetLength(ms.Length - numberOfBytesToRemove);

59.//ms.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);

60.//System.Net.Mail.Attachment oAttach = new System.Net.Mail.Attachment(ms, "LabReport.zip");

61.//mail.Attachments.Add(oAttach);

62.//SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();

63.//client.Host = "intermail.basf-corp.com";

64.//client.Send(mail);

65.//client.Dispose();

66.//mail.Dispose();

67.Utilities.SetStatusBarText(EventAggregator, "Report Sent.");

Y position of the bottom of dynamically created elements

I'm struggling to see how to programmatically keep track of the relevant Y position to give to the FixedContentEditor after adding dynamically created elements such as tables and Text that can vary in height.

An example would be Drawing a Block that contains text from a SQL Query. This text could be one line long or 30 lines long and therefore the height of the text can vary greatly (below its in dtJobHeader.Rows(0).Item("Comment")). I need to be able to tell the editor.position.translate where it needs to move to and draw the next block after the previous block is drawn.

editor.Position.Translate(defaultLeftIndent, currentTopOffset)
editor.DrawBlock(DrawBlock(dtJobHeader.Rows(0).Item("Comment")), New Size(maxWidth, Double.PositiveInfinity))

currentTopOffset += ????
editor.Position.Translate(defaultLeftIndent, currentTopOffset)
editor.DrawBlock(DrawBlock("Some Text Here, etc, etc, etc"), New Size(maxWidth, Double.PositiveInfinity))

Private Function DrawBlock(texttodraw As String) As Block

Dim block As New Block()
block.GraphicProperties.FillColor = RgbColors.Black
block.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left
block.TextProperties.Font = FontsRepository.Helvetica
block.InsertText(texttodraw)

Return block

End Function
