This article explains about the different layout options available in Excel to PDF conversion in XlsIO using C#/VB.NET. What is layout? In Excel to PDF conversion, layout defines scaling of the row and column of the worksheet. The following are the layout options in Excel to PDF conversion in XlsIO.
By default, the layout option is Automatic. FitSheetOnOnePage When the FitSheetOnOnePage option is selected, the workbook will be converted into pdf with one page for each worksheet. //Intialize the ExcelToPdfconverterSettings ExcelToPdfConverterSettings settings = new ExcelToPdfConverterSettings(); //Set the layout options settings.LayoutOptions = LayoutOptions.FitSheetOnOnePage;
NoScaling When NoScaling option is selected, the workbook will not use any scaling. Instead it will convert the worksheet based actual size of the column width and row height for entire workbook. //Intialize the ExcelToPdfconverterSettings ExcelToPdfConverterSettings settings = new ExcelToPdfConverterSettings(); //Set the layout options settings.LayoutOptions = LayoutOptions.NoScaling;
FitAllColumnsOnOnePage FitAllColumnsOnOnePage option is will make all the columns in a worksheet fit into single page. //Intialize the ExcelToPdfconverterSettings ExcelToPdfConverterSettings settings = new ExcelToPdfConverterSettings(); //Set the layout options settings.LayoutOptions = LayoutOptions.FitAllColumnsOnOnePage;
FitAllRowsOnOnePage All the rows in the worksheet will fit into single page when the FitAllRowsOnOnePage option is selected. //Intialize the ExcelToPdfconverterSettings ExcelToPdfConverterSettings settings = new ExcelToPdfConverterSettings(); //Set the layout options settings.LayoutOptions = LayoutOptions.FitAllRowsOnOnePage;
CustomScaling CustomScaling option uses the page setup zoom option while conversion like MS-Excel shows the page setup dialog box to set the zoom level when the custom scaling is selected. //Intialize the ExcelToPdfconverterSettings ExcelToPdfConverterSettings settings = new ExcelToPdfConverterSettings(); //Set the layout options settings.LayoutOptions = LayoutOptions.CustomScaling;
Automatic Automatic option will convert the workbook based on which layout option will suit for every worksheet in a workbook. The default value is NoScaling. //Intialize the ExcelToPdfconverterSettings ExcelToPdfConverterSettings settings = new ExcelToPdfConverterSettings(); //Set the layout options settings.LayoutOptions = LayoutOptions.Automatic;
