ASP.NET Grid Document Exporter Control

Adobe® Portable Document Format (PDF) and Microsoft®'s Extensible Paper Specification (XPS), an open XML document standard used by applications like Microsoft Office® 2010, constitute together a major share of the electronic documents exchanged between information workers today, and this trend can only grow as tens of millions of new clients capable of working in these formats are deployed around the globe every year.

Adding the WebDocumentExporter™ control to your ASP.NET application increases its collaborative reach by letting your application's end users share documents in these widely supported formats that has been produced from your application’s WebDataGrid™ or WebHierarchicalDataGrid™ content. It takes only a single method call to turn an online data grid into high-quality XPS and PDF reports.

Building on top of the Infragistics.Documents compiled assembly, and its extensive object model, permits WebDocumentExporter to reuse many of its graphics and layout features, as well as settings specific to PDF and XPS document formats. This means you'll be leveraging your knowledge of our Infragistics.Documents API's as you accomplish many of the more advanced tasks that are made possible by WebDocumentExporter.
