StiWebViewer Control Print Issue

Houssam Hamdan · Post by **Houssam Hamdan** » Tue Jan 25, 2011 5:31 am

In order to explain what is happening, please follow the below steps:

1- Open the StimulReportWebDemo2005 project that comes with the installation setup file.
2- Open C:\Program Files (x86)\Stimulsoft Reports.Net 2010.1\Bin\Data\Open.xml file
3- Modify one of the Include large string here tags inside a tag where you include large string value.
4- Run the aforementioned project
5- Click the print without preview menu item to send the command towards the printer.

The problem is that the StiWebViewer Control toolbar displays 1 of 3 pages meaning that we are requesting 3 pages from the printer. Unfortunately, when certain data field contains large data, we are getting 4 pages from the printer, the footer "page 1 of 3" is being displayed on the second paper instead of displaying page 1 of 4 on the first and 2 of 4 on the second ... 4 of 4.

Your prompt help would be highly appreciated.

Cheers and Regards,

I have to rectify the second point:

The correct file name to be opened is C:\Program Files (x86)\Stimulsoft Reports.Net 2010.1\Bin\Data\Demo.xml file.

Sorry for any inconveniences.

Hello,

For correct printing, set for this element (Text2) the CanGrow property to true.
This problem occurs because of the peculiarities of displaying in HTML. Even if a component of the text should not be included, this property on the page will display the entire text with stretching a text component.

Thank you.
