After a long time of struggling with this not-so-friendly API, I am finally making progress, but now I've come to a really nasty issue.. I have placed "dir" attributes in various places in my html with the value being "rtl".. but the XMLWorker doesn't seem to respect that at all. Does anyone know of a workaround? Here's my method:
public static void Generate<TModel>(string templateFile, TModel model, string outputFile, IEnumerable<string> fonts)
{
string template = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(templateFile);
string result = Razor.Parse(template, model);
using (var fsOut = new FileStream(outputFile, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write))
using (var stringReader = new StringReader(result))
{
var document = new Document();
var pdfWriter = PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, fsOut);
pdfWriter.InitialLeading = 12.5f;
document.Open();
var xmlWorkerHelper = XMLWorkerHelper.GetInstance();
var cssResolver = new StyleAttrCSSResolver();
//cssResolver.AddCss(cssFile);
var xmlWorkerFontProvider = new XMLWorkerFontProvider();
foreach (string font in fonts)
{
xmlWorkerFontProvider.Register(font);
}
var cssAppliers = new CssAppliersImpl(xmlWorkerFontProvider);
var htmlContext = new HtmlPipelineContext(cssAppliers);
htmlContext.SetTagFactory(Tags.GetHtmlTagProcessorFactory());
PdfWriterPipeline pdfWriterPipeline = new PdfWriterPipeline(document, pdfWriter);
HtmlPipeline htmlPipeline = new HtmlPipeline(htmlContext, pdfWriterPipeline);
CssResolverPipeline cssResolverPipeline = new CssResolverPipeline(cssResolver, htmlPipeline);
XMLWorker xmlWorker = new XMLWorker(cssResolverPipeline, true);
XMLParser xmlParser = new XMLParser(xmlWorker);
xmlParser.Parse(stringReader);
document.Close();
}
}
