Or is it just a case that I just have to work out how many rows will fit on the first page, render them,
then add a new page and continue the rendering until I reach the end of the table.

I'm quite happy to do that unless there's an elegant solution.

Thanks Again (great product by the way)
Phil

sorry if this is a daft question but I've only just started with this library

SelectPage(1)
DrawTableRows

how do you know which rows have been drawn and which are still to be rendered?


Many thanks
Phil

Hi Stakon,

Sure, you can draw a table across multiple pages using DrawTableRows. 

When you call the DrawTableRows function there is a 'Height' parameter that will determine the area in which table rows can be drawn. If the rows being drawn exceed that area, then the DrawTableRows function will return the number of the last drawn row. This information can be used as a starting point for drawing the next row on the second page. When you call this function you don't have to start at row 1, you can start at row 101 if you want. Your table will still be in memory after DrawTableRows finishes on the first page.

SelectPage(1)
DrawTableRows
SelectPage(2)
DrawTableRows
SelectPage(3)
DrawTableRows

You just keep doing this until you haven't got any more rows in your table to draw.

Cheers,
- Rowan.

Hi all,


I have some really lengthy tables i want to put in a PDF.
The documentation on tables notes that DrawTableRows will only draw as much of a table as it fits in the current page.

Is there any alternative? Some function that continues drawing my table across several pages?
If not, is there any trick some of you have used to make this happen?

Thanx in advance,

stakon.
