Using ItextSharp C# how to create a multipage report with necessary text formatting Header and footer?
Is this possible using HTML template with css?
You can use iTextSharp.dll for creating PDFs through your c# program. You can create lists, bullet points, tables and much more with the help of this. I have used it in many of enterprise level applications for creating reports in PDF.
For Example, to create a following document
You'll need this code:
Document doc = new Document(iTextSharp.text.PageSize.A4_LANDSCAPE, 25, 25, 43, 35);
PdfWriter wri = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream("C:\\test\\Updated_INVOICE#" + textBox45.Text + ".pdf", FileMode.Create));
doc.Open();
var myFont11 = FontFactory.GetFont("NewJune", 18, BaseColor.BLACK);
var p1 = new Paragraph("AK TRAVEL GLOBAL LTD.\n", myFont11);
doc.Add(p1);
var AddFont = FontFactory.GetFont("NewJune", 8, BaseColor.BLACK);
var p23 = new Paragraph("91 HIGH ST\nDUDLEY DY1 1QP\nPhone 01384 255777 Fax 08714 310690", AddFont);
p23.Alignment = 23;
doc.Add(p23);
var myFont = FontFactory.GetFont("NewJune", 12, BaseColor.BLACK);
var myFont1 = FontFactory.GetFont("NewJune", 30, BaseColor.GRAY);
var p2 = new Paragraph("INVOICE\n\n", myFont1);
p2.Alignment = 2;
doc.Add(p2);
var p3 = new Paragraph("INVOICE # " + textBox45.Text.ToString() + "\n", myFont);
p3.Alignment = 2;
doc.Add(p3);
var p4 = new Paragraph("DATE: " + DateTime.Now.ToString(), myFont);
p4.Alignment = 2;
doc.Add(p4);
var myFont12 = FontFactory.GetFont("NewJune", 26, BaseColor.BLACK);
var pg1 = new Paragraph("BILL NUMBER - " + textBox45.Text, myFont12);
pg1.Alignment = 1;
doc.Add(pg1);

In my case, I need to let the user shoose the folder and the file name.
I know that I have to make some changes to "PdfWriterGetInstance".
Then how can I change my code to make it as I want:
Document doc = new Document(iTextSharp.text.PageSize.A4, 10, 10, 42, 35);
PdfWriter wri = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream("Stock.pdf", FileMode.Create));
doc.Open();
Paragraph paragraphe = new Paragraph("Raport of Stock\n\n");
paragraphe.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_CENTER;
doc.Add(paragraphe);
DateTime now = new DateTime();
Paragraph paragraphe3 = new Paragraph(" " + now.ToString()+"\n\n\n");
paragraphe.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_LEFT;
doc.Add(paragraphe3);
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(dataGridView1.Columns.Count);
//add the header
for (int j=0; j < dataGridView1.Columns.Count; j++)
{
table.AddCell(new Phrase(dataGridView1.Columns[j].HeaderText));
}
//Flag the first row as a header
table.HeaderRows = 1;
for(int i = 0; i< dataGridView1.Rows.Count; i++)
{
for(int k = 0; k < dataGridView1.Columns.Count; k++)
{
if (dataGridView1[k, i].Value != null)
{
table.AddCell(new Phrase(dataGridView1[k, i].Value.ToString()));
}
}
}
doc.Add(table);
Paragraph paragraphe1 = new Paragraph(" " + "Total items: " +quaq1.ToString());
paragraphe.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_LEFT;
doc.Add(paragraphe1);
Paragraph paragraphe2 = new Paragraph(" " + "Total Price: " + tot1.ToString());
paragraphe.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_LEFT;

foreach (DataRow row in dataTable.Rows)

//write in new row
var datatable = dataTable;
var departments = from r in datatable.Rows.OfType<DataRow>()
group r by r["emp_reader_id"] into g

Any help ?
Thanks!
add below line next to table.DeleteBodyRows()
To remove first row
table.DeleteRow(0);

help me..
Change this line-
if (endColumnPosition > dt.Rows[0].Cells.Count - 1) { endColumnPosition = dt.Rows[0].Cells.Count - 1; noOfColumns = (endColumnPosition - startColumnPosition) + 2; oPdfTable = new PdfPTable(noOfColumns); }
To this-
if (endColumnPosition > dt.Rows[0].Cells.Count - 1) { endColumnPosition = dt.Rows[0].Cells.Count - 1; noOfColumns = (endColumnPosition - startColumnPosition) + 2; oPdfTable = new PdfPTable(noOfColumns); oPdfTable.HeaderRows = 1;}
After this line-
oPdfTable = new PdfPTable(14);
Add this-
oPdfTable.HeaderRows = 1;
Change this line-
pageRowCount = 0; doc.Add(oPdfTable); doc.NewPage(); doc.Add(oHeader); oPdfTable = new PdfPTable(noOfColumns); oPdfTable.SetTotalWidth(lstwidths.ToArray()); foreach (PdfPCell oHeaderCell in lstHeaderCells) { oPdfTable.AddCell(oHeaderCell); }
To this-
pageRowCount = 0; doc.Add(oPdfTable); doc.NewPage(); doc.Add(oHeader); oPdfTable = new PdfPTable(noOfColumns); oPdfTable.HeaderRows = 1; oPdfTable.SetTotalWidth(lstwidths.ToArray()); foreach (PdfPCell oHeaderCell in lstHeaderCells) { oPdfTable.AddCell(oHeaderCell); }
i am trying to build a pdf, in which i have to add a table without border and i am doing like this, but is there any better way to do this?
my code is like this:
PdfPTable row1 = new PdfPTable(4);
row1.TotalWidth = 350f;
row1.LockedWidth = true;
int[] intTblWidth1 = { 20,50,20,40 };
row1.SetWidths(intTblWidth1);
row1.SpacingBefore = 20f;
row1.HorizontalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_LEFT;
PdfPCell cel = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("Ordered By: ", bodyFont));
cel.Colspan = 1;
cel.Border = 0;
cel.HorizontalAlignment = 0;
row1.AddCell(cel);
PdfPCell cel1 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(_requester, titleFont));
cel1.Border = 0;
cel1.HorizontalAlignment = 0;
cel1.VerticalAlignment = 0;
row1.AddCell(cel1);
PdfPCell cel2 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("Order #: ", bodyFont));
cel2.Colspan = 1;
cel2.Border = 0;
cel2.HorizontalAlignment = 0;
row1.AddCell(cel2);
PdfPCell cel3 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(_orderNumber, titleFont));
cel3.Colspan = 1;
cel3.Border = 0;
cel3.HorizontalAlignment = 0;
row1.AddCell(cel3);
doc.Add(row1);
i am using new table to create new row.
if i do like this:-
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(3);
PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("Header spanning 3 columns"));
cell.Colspan = 3;
cell.HorizontalAlignment = 1; //0=Left, 1=Centre, 2=Right
table.AddCell(cell);
table.AddCell("Col 1 Row 1");
table.AddCell("Col 2 Row 1");
table.AddCell("Col 3 Row 1");
table.AddCell("Col 1 Row 2");
table.AddCell("Col 2 Row 2");
table.AddCell("Col 3 Row 2");
doc.Add(table);
i am not able to hide the border of table, and i don't wanna any border line in the table.
i have to generate a dynamic pdf. any suggestion will be appreciated, i will mark your answer if it work for me. thank you in advance ;) happy coding.
Try doing this:
table.DefaultCell.Border = Rectangle.NO_BORDER;
or you should try this for each cell
cellxxx.Border = Rectangle.NO_BORDER;
The Border Elements of the PdfPTable are defined by the PdfPCell which are added to the table. Each Cell will have its own style/formatting. Here is the API: http://api.itextpdf.com/
