Hi,
thank you for get back to me so quick.
i set tablename.IsInNewPage = False to every table. it dose not work of the last table.

the margin for all the tables are 2.0F

’‘boxedtable is outer table with border width 528
BoxedTable.DefaultCellBorder = New BorderInfo(BorderSide.All, 0.2F)

’‘innertable inside the boxedtable, all tables are inside innertable width 524
innertable.DefaultCellBorder = New BorderInfo(BorderSide.All, 0.0F)

all other tables width=520
’’ first table inside innertable
commTable.DefaultCellBorder = New BorderInfo(BorderSide.All, 0.0F)
Dim innertableRow As Row = innertable.Rows.Ad
innertableRow.Cells.Add.Paragraphs.Add(commTable)


’’ all tables below have lot of rows in them, they could end in the middle of the page, and the one after it starts at the new page, not directly after it. all tables are built in separate subroutine

’’ second table inside innertable this is the table has lots of row in it and could end at the middle of the page
ProviderTable.DefaultCellBorder = New BorderInfo(BorderSide.All, 0.0F)
Dim innertableRowRowTemp As Row = innertable.Rows.Add()
innertableRowRowTemp.Cells.Add.Paragraphs.Add(ProviderTable)

’’ term table is the third table inside the innertable.
Dim innertableRowTerm As Row = innertable.Rows.Add()
innertableRowTerm.Cells.Add.Paragraphs.Add(TermLable)

’’ other table is the fourth table inside the innertable
Dim innertableRowotherLable As Row = innertable.Rows.Add()
innertableRowotherLable.Cells.Add.Paragraphs.Add(otherLable)

thanks,
Ying

Hi Ying,


Thanks for sharing the code snippet.

I have tried replicating the issue but it appears that you have too many tables defined in above code snippet (innertable, ProviderTable, commTable). Can you please share the sample project which can help us in replicating the issue in our environment. We are sorry for this inconvenience.
19

Hi Ying,


Thanks for sharing the code snippet.

I have tried executing the code but it appears that you have some custom SQL and other data binding objects defined i.e. ConfigurationManager etc. Can you please share some sample project, so that we can again try replicating the issue in our environment. We are sorry for this delay and inconvenience.
20

thanks for your response.

not sure what i can provide this time. you will need my database to query the records and fill the table. the ConfigurationManager is in the web.config

spname = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings(“SPGetTurstee”).ConnectionString

<add name=“ApplicationServices”
connectionString=“data source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|\aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true”
providerName=“System.Data.SqlClient” />
<add name=“MeetingAgenda” connectionString=“Data Source= ;Initial Catalog=PennAgenda;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=EmailWithAttachment;Password=”
providerName=“System.Data.SqlClient” />

Hi Ying,


Thanks for sharing the additional information. We are looking into it and will update you with our findings soon.

We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi, just wondering what is your finding…

thanks,
Ying

Hi Ying,


Thanks for sharing the details and sorry for the delayed response.

In earlier response, you have shared a connection string but in order to fill the data inside the code, I need a database from which I need to programatically pull the data. Therefore as requested earlier, can you please share some sample project along with database backup/dump, so that we can again try replicating the issue in our environment. We are sorry for this inconvenience.

Hi,

Hi,

have you get a chance to look at this?

Hi Ying,

Thanks for sharing the details and sorry for the delayed response.

When using new Document Object Model of Aspose.Pdf namespace, you can save the output in Stream object and pass Stream contents to Response object, so that PDF file is rendered inside web browser.

[C#]

FileStream fs = new FileStream(“c:/pdftest/SampleFileTextFragment.pdf”, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite);

// Instantiate Document instance

Aspose.Pdf.Document pdfDocument = new Aspose.Pdf.Document(fs);

Aspose.Pdf.Facades.FormEditor fe = new Aspose.Pdf.Facades.FormEditor(pdfDocument);

string submissionUrl = "http://localhost/app1/forms/test1";

string label = "Submit";

fe.SubmitFlag = Aspose.Pdf.Facades.SubmitFormFlag.Fdf;

fe.AddSubmitBtn(string.Format("SUBMITFORM_{0}", 1), 1, label, submissionUrl, 500, 765, 600, 790);

fe.Save(fs);

fs.Dispose();

MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream();

// Save resulting PDF document.

pdfDocument.Save(stream);

StreamReader reader = new System.IO.StreamReader(Request.InputStream);

String Data = reader.ReadToEnd();

this.Title = Data;

Response.Clear();

Response.ClearHeaders();

Response.ClearContent();

Response.Buffer = true;

Response.Charset = "UTF-8";

Response.AddHeader("Accept-Header", stream.Length.ToString());

Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", stream.Length.ToString());

Response.AddHeader("Expires", "0″");

Response.AddHeader("Pragma", "cache");

Response.AddHeader("Cache-Control", "private");

Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", String.Format("inline;filename={0}", "article" + "docId"+ ".pdf"));

Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";

Response.AddHeader("Accept-Ranges", "bytes");

Response.BinaryWrite(stream.ToArray());

Response.Flush();

Response.End();

Hi, thank you for your help. do you have VB code for this? thanks again. Ying

Hi,

above code seems read a existing PDF, my case is different. i am generate a pdf document from database and i want this document opens in broswer instead of save it to a directory.

thanks,
Ying

Hi Ying,

Thanks for sharing the details.

Please try using the following code snippet to create new PDF document and render the output in web browser using VB.NET.

[VB.N]

' Instantiate Document instance
Dim pdfDocument As Aspose.Pdf.Document = New Aspose.Pdf.Document()

pdfDocument.Pages.Add()
pdfDocument.Pages(1).Paragraphs.Add(New Aspose.Pdf.Text.TextFragment("First page of Document..."))

Dim fe As Aspose.Pdf.Facades.FormEditor = New Aspose.Pdf.Facades.FormEditor(pdfDocument)
Dim submissionUrl As String = "http://localhost/app1/forms/test1"
Dim label As String = "Submit"

fe.SubmitFlag = Aspose.Pdf.Facades.SubmitFormFlag.Fdf
fe.AddSubmitBtn(String.Format("SUBMITFORM_{0}", 1), 1, label, submissionUrl, 500, 765, 600, 790)

Dim fs As MemoryStream = New MemoryStream()
fe.Save(fs)
fs.Dispose()

Dim stream As MemoryStream = New MemoryStream()

' Save resulting PDF document.
pdfDocument.Save(stream)

Dim reader As StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(Request.InputStream)
Dim Data As String = reader.ReadToEnd()

Response.Clear()
Response.ClearHeaders()
Response.ClearContent()
Response.Buffer = True
Response.Charset = "UTF-8"
Response.AddHeader("Accept-Header", stream.Length.ToString())
Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", stream.Length.ToString())
Response.AddHeader("Expires", "0″")
Response.AddHeader("Pragma", "cache")
Response.AddHeader("Cache-Control", "private")
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", String.Format("inline;filename={0}", "article" + "docId" + ".pdf"))
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
Response.AddHeader("Accept-Ranges", "bytes")
Response.BinaryWrite(stream.ToArray())
Response.Flush()
Response.End()

Is there a way to apply a border (border color) around the page numbers? All I am doing is displaying simple page numbers at the footer of each page. I am not finding a way to apply styles for the page numbers

Using the following code-

var PageNumberText = new FormattedText("#", new FontColor(86, 86, 86), FontStyle.CourierBold, EncodingType.Winansi, false, 14);
var pageNumberStamp = new PageNumberStamp(PageNumberText);
pageNumberStamp.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Right;
pageNumberStamp.VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Bottom;
pageNumberStamp.BottomMargin = 40;
pageNumberStamp.RightMargin = 15;
pageNumberStamp.ZoomX = 1;
pageNumberStamp.ZoomY = 1;

31

@adityarlv,

As per my understanding, you need to draw some border around the page number information. If so is the case, then please add rectangle around the page number information.

32

@adityarlv,

Please take a look over following code snippet to accomplish your requirement. Please note that in order to set vertical alignment, the position value is obtained by dividing page height. In case you encounter any issue, please share the input PDF file.

[C#]

// Open document
Document pdfDocument = new Document("c:/pdftest/AnchorText.pdf");

var PageNumberText = new FormattedText("#", new FontColor(86, 86, 86), Aspose.Pdf.Facades.FontStyle.CourierBold, EncodingType.Winansi, false, 14);
// Create page number stamp
PageNumberStamp pageNumberStamp = new PageNumberStamp(PageNumberText);//"#", new FontColor(86, 86, 86), FontStyle.CourierBold, EncodingType.Winansi, false, 14);
// Whether the stamp is background
pageNumberStamp.Background = false;
pageNumberStamp.Format = "Page # of " + pdfDocument.Pages.Count;
pageNumberStamp.BottomMargin = 10;  
pageNumberStamp.HorizontalAlignment = Aspose.Pdf.HorizontalAlignment.Center;
pageNumberStamp.StartingNumber = 1;
// Set text properties
pageNumberStamp.TextState.Font = Aspose.Pdf.Text.FontRepository.FindFont("Arial");
pageNumberStamp.TextState.FontSize = 14.0F;
pageNumberStamp.TextState.FontStyle = Aspose.Pdf.Text.FontStyles.Bold;
pageNumberStamp.TextState.FontStyle = Aspose.Pdf.Text.FontStyles.Italic;
pageNumberStamp.TextState.ForegroundColor = Aspose.Pdf.Color.Aqua;

// create Graph object 
Aspose.Pdf.Drawing.Graph canvas = new Aspose.Pdf.Drawing.Graph(100,200);
// Create rectangle object with specific dimensions
Aspose.Pdf.Drawing.Rectangle rect = new Aspose.Pdf.Drawing.Rectangle((float)pdfDocument.Pages[1].PageInfo.Width / 2 - 130, -(((float)pdfDocument.Pages[1].PageInfo.Height)/2)-138, 80, 20);
Console.WriteLine((float)pdfDocument.Pages[1].PageInfo.Height);
// Add rectangle object to shapes collection of Graph instance
canvas.Shapes.Add(rect);

// Add stamp to particular page
pdfDocument.Pages[1].AddStamp(pageNumberStamp);
pdfDocument.ProcessParagraphs();
Console.WriteLine(pageNumberStamp.XIndent);
Console.WriteLine(pageNumberStamp.RightMargin);

pdfDocument.Pages[1].Paragraphs.Add(canvas);
// Save output document
pdfDocument.Save("c:/pdftest/PageNumnber.pdf");
33

Thanks for the code.

But my case here is not to display the entire rectangle, but only show borders on right and bottom sides of the page numbers. Is there a way to achieve this (like using some style on the page numbers)

34

@adityarlv,

In order to fulfill above stated requirement, you need to draw two line objects. For more information, please visit Add Line object to PDF file.

@codewarior,

Thanks, that was exactly what I was looking for.
