Hello Telerik,

I want to export a file.txt  to Pdf, I´m using GridViewPdfExport component but this line does not work:

Telerik.WinControls.Export.PdfExportRenderer renderer = new Telerik.WinControls.Export.PdfExportRenderer();

 

This is my code , taken from Export to PDF

 

Telerik.WinControls.Export.GridViewPdfExport pdfExporter = new Telerik.WinControls.Export.GridViewPdfExport(radGrid1);
pdfExporter.FileExtension = ".pdf";
pdfExporter.ShowHeaderAndFooter = true;
pdfExporter.HeaderHeight = 30;
pdfExporter.HeaderFont = new Font("Arial", 22);
pdfExporter.Logo = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(@"C:\temp\logo.png");
pdfExporter.LeftHeader = "[Logo]";
pdfExporter.LogoAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleLeft;
pdfExporter.LogoLayout = Telerik.WinControls.Export.LogoLayout.Fit;

pdfExporter.MiddleHeader = "Middle header";
pdfExporter.RightHeader = "Right header";
pdfExporter.ReverseHeaderOnEvenPages = true;

pdfExporter.FooterHeight = 30;
pdfExporter.FooterFont = new Font("Arial", 22);
pdfExporter.LeftFooter = "Left footer";
pdfExporter.MiddleFooter = "Middle footer";
pdfExporter.RightFooter = "Right footer";
pdfExporter.ReverseFooterOnEvenPages = true;

pdfExporter.SummariesExportOption = SummariesOption.ExportAll;
pdfExporter.FitToPageWidth = true;
pdfExporter.Scale = 1.2;
pdfExporter.ExportSettings.Title = "Prueba";

string exportFile = @"..\..\exportedData.pdf";
using (System.IO.MemoryStream ms = new System.IO.MemoryStream())
{
Telerik.WinControls.Export.GridViewPdfExport exporter = new    Telerik.WinControls.Export.GridViewPdfExport(radGrid1);
Telerik.WinControls.Export.PdfExportRenderer renderer = new Telerik.WinControls.Export.PdfExportRenderer();
exporter.RunExport(ms, renderer);

using (System.IO.FileStream fileStream = new System.IO.FileStream(exportFile, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write)){
ms.WriteTo(fileStream);}
}

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jamsheer,

Thank you for writing.

You do not need to use the grid to convert text files to pdf. You can just use the WordsProcessing library. Detailed information is available here: 

• Using TxtFormatProvider
• Using PdfFormatProvider 

Nevertheless, could you please share the error message observed on your side? You code compiles without errors on mine.

I am looking forward to your reply.

Hi Dimitar,

It works, but I now have another problem

My RadGridView does not load any information, I use this 

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt = objAdmin.Sales();

RadGridView radGrid1 = new RadGridView();
radGrid1.AutoGenerateColumns = true;
radGrid1.MasterTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
radGrid1.MasterTemplate.DataSource = dt;

What am I doing wrong?

 

 

 

 

What am I doing wrong?. On the other hand , the library that you recommend me , so I understand not allow me to customize the pdf in order that want to show the information, and information gathering for the use of this is very poor and I do not think Easy to use. for example I can not find how or where to place the path of the plane I want to export file, I found only this

Hello Gustavo,

Are you adding the grid to the form or you want to export the data without showing it? If this is the case you need to call the LoadElementTree method and set the BindingContext manually:

RadGridView radGrid1 = new RadGridView();
radGrid1.AutoGenerateColumns = true;
radGrid1.MasterTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
radGrid1.MasterTemplate.DataSource = dt;

radGrid1.BindingContext = this.BindingContext;
radGrid1.LoadElementTree();

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

Hello Dimitar,

Yes, I want to export the data without showing it, my project is a console application, I need export a plain text

 

I have this error

 

Thanks in advence

[Dimitar]

Hello Gustavo,

You need to make sure that the System.Windows.Forms assembly is referenced. In addition, since you do not have a form you need to create a binding context:

radGrid1.BindingContext = new BindingContext();

I hope this will be useful.

Thank you for writing.

You need to add a reference to the TelerikExport assembly. This is noted at the begging of the article. 

In addition, you can use our WordsProcessing library to convert such files, you do not need a UI component for this: WordsProcessing.

I hope this will be useful. Let me know if you have additional questions.

Hello,

The method overload that accepts stream was introduced in R2 2016 SP1 (version 2016.2.608). So you need this or newer version in order to export to a stream.

Please note that you can pass the file name and path directly and export the grid, the stream is used for some cases where you do not want to create a file.

I hope this will be useful. Let me know if you have additional questions.

Hello Dimitar,

     I overcome that Issue ,Thanks a lot.

 Now I want to export my RadGridview to Word file also,How could I do ?

Thanks in advance

[Dimitar]

Hi,

There is no built-in exporter that can export to the  format. However, this can be achieved and we have an example of it in our demo application (see attached image). 

Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

Hello Dimitar,
    How could I convert my RadPrintDocument  values to RadFlowDocument, because when export RadGridview to docx file or text file  there we are using RadFlowDocument.

Where I exported successfully to pdf,xlsx,xls formats, The above issue when exporting to those formats (docx and txt)

If you can attach example project or sample codes

Thanks in advance
jamsheer

[Dimitar]

Hi Jamsheer,

There is no way to convert RadPrintDocumet to RadFlowDocument.

I do not understand what is your exact requirement. So could you please specify what exactly you want to achieve and why you want to convert these document types?

I am looking forward to your reply.

Hello Dimitar,
      I have getting duplicate value to my radprintpreview from  a grouped radfridview (Actually there i grouped two columns name as ledgergroup and groupname  , some ledgergroup have same groupname because of that its getting duplication ,In this pic look the second marked fields where "sales  is a ledgergroup and the groupname also same as ledgergroup  name as sales")

i want to avoid that duplicate name at this case.
Thanks in advance

Hi Jamsheer,

We have an example that shows how you can export to  format in our demo application. You can directly copy the code as well (see attached image). 

In addition, I am not sure how to reduce the issue with the groups printing. This is why I want to kindly ask you to open a separate thread for this and add the code of your form. This will allow us to properly investigate this and provide you with a solution.

I hope this will be useful.

[jamsheer]

Hello Dimitar,
    How could I change the color of Pinned row of Radgrid,where I have lot of summary rows and I pinned the last total value of my documents .

Where I used to Pinned Row with this code,

this.DgvTrialBalance.MasterView.SummaryRows[0].PinPosition = PinnedRowPosition.Bottom;

Thanks in advance

Hello Dimitar,

   Expecting your help for those questions.

Thanks in advance

Hi Jamsheer,

1. You can use Column Groups View to create such layout.

2. Use the ViewCellFormatting event to change the styles of the summary cells:

private void RadGridView1_ViewCellFormatting(object sender, CellFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.CellElement is GridSummaryCellElement)
    {
        e.CellElement.DrawFill = true;
        e.CellElement.GradientStyle = Telerik.WinControls.GradientStyles.Solid;
        e.CellElement.BackColor = Color.Red;

    }
    else
    {
        e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.BackColorProperty, Telerik.WinControls.ValueResetFlags.Local);
        e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.GradientStyleProperty, Telerik.WinControls.ValueResetFlags.Local);
        e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.DrawFillProperty, Telerik.WinControls.ValueResetFlags.Local);
    }
}

Off topic, I want to mention that these questions are not related to the original subject of this thread. I want to kindly ask you to use relevant or open new threads for unrelated questions. In addition, could please use just one support channel to contact us. Posting the same questions numerous times slows down our response time because we will need to review and address two or more tickets instead of one.

Thank you for your understanding.
