WPF Need to save report(s) as PDF and print them MVVM
posted

Can someone provide a sample project that shows how i can save multiple PDFs and print them as well?  Apparently the only way to do this is to have  a Visibility=Collapsed XamReportViewer (so it is not seen by the user).  I need to select one or several invoices, and provide that data for each report, then save them as PDF and print them as well.  Every example IG has given me is code-behind and refers directly to the XamReportViewer to make the calls to export or print.  

ie: 

dynamic exporter = new ExportTasks(xamReportViewer1);  <-- how can i do this in mvvm!?
            exporter.Start();

    Hello Travis,

     

    Thank you for your post. I have been looking into your question and currently this is no way to export/print a .pdf file without using the methods of the XamReportViewer using our Infragisitcs Reporting.

     

    After looking into this and doing some research, your requirement has been determined to be a new product idea. You can suggest new product ideas for future versions (or vote for existing ones) at <http://ideas.infragistics.com>.

     

    There are many benefits to submitting an product idea:

     

    -          Direct communication with our product management team regarding your product idea.

    -          Notifications whenever new information regarding your idea becomes available.

    -          Ability to vote on your favorite product ideas to let us know which ones are the most important to you.  You will have ten votes for this and can change which ideas you are voting for at any time.

    -          Allow you to shape the future of our products by requesting new controls and products altogether.

    -          You and other developers can discuss existing product ideas with members of our Product Management team.

     

    Steps to create your idea:

                   

    1. Log into the Infragistics Product Idea site at http://ideas.infragistics.com (creating a new login if needed).
    2. Navigate to the product / platform channel of your choice (e.g. WPF, Windows Forms, ASP.NET, HTML5 / Ignite UI, iOS / NucliOS, etc.)
    3. Add your product idea and be sure to be specific and provide as much detail as possible. Explain the context in which a feature would be used, why it is needed, why it can’t be accomplished today, and who would benefit from it. You can even add screenshots to build a stronger case. Remember that for your suggestion to be successful, you need other members of the community to vote for it. Be convincing!

     

     

    The Product Idea site puts you in the driver’s seat and allows you to track the progress of your ideas at any time, see how many votes it got, read comments from other developers in the community, and see if someone from the product team has additional questions for you.

     

    Thank you for contacting Infragistics.
