This example shows how to import an HTML page into a multi-page PDF document.

We first create a Doc object and inset the edges a little so that the HTML will appear in the middle of the page.

[C#]
Doc theDoc = new Doc();
theDoc.Rect.Inset(72, 144);

[Visual Basic]
Dim theDoc As Doc = New Doc()
theDoc.Rect.Inset(72, 144)

We add the first page and indicate that we will be adding more pages by telling the Doc object that this is page one. We save the returned ID as this will be used to add subsequent pages.

[C#]
theDoc.Page = theDoc.AddPage();
int theID;
theID = theDoc.AddImageUrl("http://www.yahoo.com/");

[Visual Basic]
theDoc.Page = theDoc.AddPage()
Dim theID As Integer
theID = theDoc.AddImageUrl("http://www.yahoo.com/")

We now chain subsequent pages together. We stop when we reach a page which wasn't truncated.

[C#]
while (true) {
  theDoc.FrameRect(); // add a black border
  if (!theDoc.Chainable(theID))
    break;
  theDoc.Page = theDoc.AddPage();
  theID = theDoc.AddImageToChain(theID);
}

[Visual Basic]
While True
  theDoc.FrameRect() ' add a black border
  If Not theDoc.Chainable(theID) Then
    Exit While
  End If
  theDoc.Page = theDoc.AddPage()
  theID = theDoc.AddImageToChain(theID)
End While

After adding the pages we can flatten them. We can't do this until after the pages have been added because flattening will invalidate our previous ID and break the chain.

[C#]
for (int i = 1; i <= theDoc.PageCount; i++) {
  theDoc.PageNumber = i;
  theDoc.Flatten();
}

[Visual Basic]
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To theDoc.PageCount
  theDoc.PageNumber = i
  theDoc.Flatten()
Next

Finally we save.

[C#]
theDoc.Save(Server.MapPath("pagedhtml.pdf"));
theDoc.Clear();

[Visual Basic]
theDoc.Save(Server.MapPath("pagedhtml.pdf"))
theDoc.Clear()


We get the following output.

pagedhtml.pdf [Page 1]

pagedhtml.pdf [Page 2]
