Can anyone tell me if I have a program that reads the text from an HTML file, If there is any way at all to use QuickPDF (I am on 8.16) to convert the HTML to a PDF... heres the catch. I want to specify a "pagesize" like "letter" then I want the function to automatically create enough pages in the PDF to render all of the HTML in porportion. I see the DrawHTML() method but if the rendered HTML is so long it takes 10 pages to draw it all then how do I handle that?

If there is no simple one call method to do this is there some work-a-round?

Thanks Wayne

Wayne,

This code might be useful

QP.NewDocument();

QP.SetOrigin(1);

string s = File.ReadAllText("input.html");

QP.DrawBox(10, 10, 300, 500, 0);

string overflow = QP.DrawHTMLTextBox(10, 10, 300, 500, s);

while (overflow != "")

{

QP.NewPage();

QP.DrawBox(10, 10, 300, 500, 0);

overflow = QP.DrawHTMLTextBox(10, 10, 300, 500, overflow);

}

QP.SaveToFile("out.pdf");
