Draw HTML

[mirko.golfieri]

Hello.
I've some HTML to print inside a PDF.
Basic example:
<TABLE>
<TR><TD>Row 1 Col 1</TD><TD>Row 1 Col 2</TD></TR>
<TR><TD>Row 2 Col 1</TD><TD>Row 2 Col 2</TD></TR>
</TABLE>

I've tried drawString with htmlTags true but it throw an exception.
Does it exists a way to do it?
Otherwise what can I do to draw this HTML inside a PDF in a rectangle?
Thanks,
Mirko

Hello,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Please refer to the following code to draw the HtmlString in Pdf. If you have any other questions, please feel free to write back.

Code: Select all

PdfDocument doc = new PdfDocument();

//Add a new page
PdfNewPage page = doc.Pages.Add() as PdfNewPage;

//HTML string
string htmlText = "<TABLE>\r\n<TR><TD>Row 1 Col 1</TD><TD>Row 1 Col 2</TD></TR>\r\n<TR><TD>Row 2 Col 1</TD><TD>Row 2 Col 2</TD></TR>\r\n</TABLE>";

//Render HTML text
PdfFont font = new PdfFont(PdfFontFamily.Helvetica, 25);
PdfBrush brush = PdfBrushes.Black;
PdfHTMLTextElement richTextElement = new PdfHTMLTextElement(htmlText, font, brush);
richTextElement.TextAlign = TextAlign.Left;

//Format Layout
PdfMetafileLayoutFormat format = new PdfMetafileLayoutFormat();
format.Layout = PdfLayoutType.Paginate;
format.Break = PdfLayoutBreakType.FitPage;

//Draw htmlString 
richTextElement.Draw(page, new RectangleF(0, 20, page.GetClientSize().Width, page.GetClientSize().Height), format);


String result = "InsertSimpleHTMLString-result.pdf";
doc.SaveToFile(result);

Hello,

Thanks for your reply.
Sorry, currently our Spire.PDF for Java does not support inserting HtmlString in pdf files. We have added this to our update list with the ticket SPIREPDF-6834. Our dev team will further implement it. I will inform you in time after it is implemented.
