Hello,

We are making an Android application that generates the pdf using some data.
We have used the Aspose.Pdf for Android 1.6.0 in our application.

we are trying to add page dynamically as per content with header and footer

What we are trying
  1. Add page dynamically when text comes at last position of page
  2. Add table to header

Facing issue

  1. Add page dynamically when text comes at last position of page.
:- when we do manually like Page m_page2 = m_doc.getPages().add(); , it works fine , but i dont know about the length of the content of that page , so need to add page dynamically .so can you please suggest me how we can achieve this

  1. Add table to header
:- we tried with text as header but when we try to add table as header it wont work
Table m_header = new Table(); 
m_header.getMargin().setLeft(- 90d);
m_header.getMargin().setTop(- 70d);
p_doc.getPages().get_Item(m_pageCounter).getParagraphs().add(m_header);
m_header.setColumnWidths("600");
m_header.setVerticalAlignment(VerticalAlignment.Bottom);
Row m_headerRow = m_header.getRows().add();
m_headerRow.setFixedRowHeight(45);
m_headerRow.getCells().add().getParagraphs().add(p_image);

Thanks for your inquiry. Please note while creating a new PDF, if contents increase from one page height API automatically add a new page. We will appreciate it if you please share your sample code here, we will test the scenario and will update you accordingly.

Hi there,

Thanks for your feedback. Please check the following code snippet to add a header/footer to a PDF document. You may notice that data moves to the next pages automatically, and the header/footer is assigned to the pages as well. Hopefully, it will help you to accomplish the task.

Document doc = new Document();
Page page = doc.getPages().add();
page.getParagraphs().add(new TextFragment("page-1"));
Table table = new Table();
table.setColumnWidths("50 100");

for (int i = 1; i <= 200; i++)
{
   Row row = table.getRows().add();
   row.setFixedRowHeight(15);
   Cell cell1 = row.getCells().add();
   cell1.getParagraphs().add(new TextFragment("Content 1 " + i));
   Cell cell2 = row.getCells().add();
   cell2.getParagraphs().add(new TextFragment("Content 2 " + i));
}

page.getParagraphs().add(table);

// header table
com.aspose.pdf.Table table1 = new com.aspose.pdf.Table();
table1.setColumnWidths("150 150");
com.aspose.pdf.Row row1 = table1.getRows().add();

// add table cells
row1.getCells().add("Column 1");
row1.getCells().add("Column 2");
row1.setBorder(new com.aspose.pdf.BorderInfo(com.aspose.pdf.BorderSide.Bottom, .5f, com.aspose.pdf.Color.getLightGray()));

com.aspose.pdf.HeaderFooter header = new com.aspose.pdf.HeaderFooter();
header.getParagraphs().add(table1);
page.setHeader(header);
doc.save(outputPath);
