ExcelRW to PDF

[Shannon Broskie]

Are there any samples or development in the works for taking an ExcelRW IWorkbook and pass it to the PDF generator to automatically create a PDF document?

This would save so much time if these two components could be linked together someway.

Hi Shannon,

Yes, we have plans for integrating ExcelRW and PDF but since the API support for Tables in Essential PDF is not as comprehensive as the Excel Grid''s API so currently there is not much mapping that could be done. However, we plan to improve the PDF''s tables to support complex formatting such that almost all the features in the spreadsheet appear on the generated PDF. We will try to include support for it in about 3-4 weeks time. Thank you for your patience.

Best regards,

Stephen.

What is the status of this?

Can a Syncfusion grid be "printed" as a pdf? If so, what about my paint overrides that place graphics, etc. - how would that be handled?

Thanks,
Greg

Hi Lucas,

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Excel to PDF is implemented but currently there is a bug in implementation. However it will be fixed very soon and it should be available in the next release, which is planned in two to three week’s time frame. The conversion of Excel to PDF would take place in the following stages

1) XlsIO reads the spreadsheet and serializes to an XML format.

workbook.SaveAsXml( "Sample.xml", ExcelXmlSaveType.DLS );

2) Its will be read by Essential PDF which produces the PDF file.
pdflDoc.OpenXml("Sample.xml");

Please let me know if you have any other questions

Thanks,
Ajish.
