I have a silverlight application which consists of a few tabs, which I would like to print or to generate PDF containing these tabs.
I tried to use StackPanel to add each tab and then use PrintDocument to print what I see, but there is a problem because there are too many tabs, so they don't fit in the size of A4 document.
And more, when I resize the browser to a smaller size, only the visible part of the content gets printed.
Is there a different method to print all the content in one document or PDF?
The PrintPageEventArgs in the PrintPage handler contains the size of the paper so you can calculate how much can be printed on a single page.
Printing (a part of) the visual tree has its disadvantages; what looks good on screen might not be good for paper, especially if scrolling and sizing are involved.
A solutions is to design one or multiple Views for printing and simply bind the same ViewModel to the PrintView. A bit like the special CSS for creating a print version of a web page.
If the content doesn't fit you should use more pages.
