TextAlignment in header does not work with header.Graphics.DrawText?

[jonam]

Hello Ma'am/Sir:

I have a datatable that would contain about 200-300 rows. When I print it to PDF, the pdf would contain 1+ pages (about 55 rows per page). I am tring to define a header that would have same columns (essentially name of the each col of the datatable) on all the pages. For the numeric data, I would like the alignment to be right aligned in the header. This does not seem to work. I get the data to be aligned right.

Can you pl help?

I am using v3.3 on .Net 1.1.

Regards,

Hi Jonam,

Thanks for your interest in Essential PDF.

You cannot set the text alignment of header by using header.Graphics.DrawText. It can be possible by using header.Graphics.DrawMultiText.

//Set the header Textalignment as right
props.TextAlignment = TextAlignment.Right;
Rectangle rect = new Rectangle( 0,0,(int)doc.LastPage.DrawingWidth-10,40);
header.Graphics.DrawMultiText( rect,title, font, props );

//Set the table header Textalignment as right
table.Header[0].Cells[i].Style.TextAlignment = TextAlignment.Right;

You can repeat the header for all pages by using RepeatHeader property

//For repeating the header to all pages

table.RepeatHeader = true;

Kindly try running the attached sample and let me know if you have any other queries.
