Export PDF setting page margins

[Stefan Limpert]

Hi there,

I'd like to export a SFGrid to PDF which is actually working.

But i have to adjust the margins of the page for two reasons.

1. The header should contain a kind of banner image that is covering the complete witdh of the page an starts at the very top.
2. i need more distance from the left side for the content, so more margin-left.

How can i achieve these things?

I attached an example of the final result.

I hope you can help me with this issue.

Regards

Stefan

Hi Naveen,

thanks for your replys. 

I think both of my querys are pointing on the same issue: 

Actually there is no possibility to change the default page margins.

I tried the example of your demo reference recently, but without success.

I've tried to set the a negative value at the Y parameter in PdfPosition()

Position = new PdfPosition() { X = 0, Y = -10 }

That was working, but the result was not really beautiful.

I've tried the same with FromTop Parameter

PdfHeader Header = new PdfHeader() { FromTop = -10, ...

but changes nothing at all.

My suggestion:

It would help if we can explicit set the page margins and/or PDFPosition() could set to absolute (like CSS position:absolute)

Hope this helps on your internal validations.

Regards

Stefan

Hi Stefan,

Currently we don’t have support for page margin in Pdf. So we have considered it as a usability improvement feature and logged a task “Export PDF setting page margins”.

And this improvement will be included in any of our upcoming releases.
