I am trying to use this package in a project of mine and would like to display the page number. There is a property on the Document object that has the PageNumber but. I have no clue how to access it from the view
Current code:
PrintManager prntManager = new PrintManager();
var data = prntManager.ObjectToPdf(item, para);
byte[] pdf = null;
pdf = ControllerContext.GeneratePdf(prntManager.CreateController<PrintingController>(), data, prntManager.ReportToView(para.Export.Report.Code));
HttpContext.Current.Response.AppendHeader("Export-Location", prntManager.GeneratePdf(pdf));
If someone has the same problem here is my solution:
PrintManager prntManager = new PrintManager();
var data = prntManager.ObjectToPdf(item, para);
byte[] pdf = null;
var cfg = new Action<iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfWriter,iTextSharp.text.Document>((writer, document) =>
{
writer.PageEvent = new StandardPrintHelper();
document.NewPage();
});
pdf = ControllerContext.GeneratePdf(prntManager.CreateController<PrintingController>(), data, prntManager.ReportToView(para.Export.Report.Code), cfg);
HttpContext.Current.Response.AppendHeader("Export-Location",
prntManager.GeneratePdf(pdf));
StandardPrintHelper:
public class StandardPrintHelper : iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfPageEventHelper
{
public override void OnEndPage(PdfWriter writer, Document document)
{
ColumnText.ShowTextAligned(writer.DirectContent, Element.ALIGN_CENTER, new Phrase(writer.PageNumber.ToString()), 500, 140, 0);
}
}
