I am using HTML bridge window.print() to print range between 20-30. The client says it is printing blank pages. We can only reproduce it on their machine.
This is the code in xaml that combines all the pages in one page and prints it. This code works and prints all pages for me. We need this only on IE I am using windows 8 and IE 10. But for the client it prints one blank page with the header and footer url. It works correctly if he prints the current page or prints all the pages from start to end.
But if he tries to print range, 23-30, it only prints 23-27 or so. Sometimes it prints just one blank page with the header and footer url. Unfortunately none of these happen on my machine. The client said that they tried it on IE 8, IE 9 and IE 11. Can some suggest what are my options or what are the things I could look out for
Page.xaml.cs
Dictionary<int, List<string>> AllPages = new Dictionary<int, List<string>>();
--code to add to AllPages
// Load all pages onto page
for (int Page = startPage; Page <= endPage; Page++)
{
if (AllPages.ContainsKey(Page))
{
List<string> PageLines = AllPages[Page];
this.m_Div = this.m_HtmlDoc.CreateElement("DIV");
if (Page != AllPages.Count)
{
this.m_Div.SetAttribute("ID", "Page");
}
this.m_Table = this.m_HtmlDoc.CreateElement("TABLE");
this.m_Div.AppendChild(this.m_Table);
for (int Line = 0; Line < PageLines.Count; Line++)
{
this.m_TR = this.m_HtmlDoc.CreateElement("TR");
this.m_TD = this.m_HtmlDoc.CreateElement("TD");
this.m_TD.SetProperty("innerText", PageLines[Line]);
this.m_TR.AppendChild(this.m_TD);
this.m_Table.AppendChild(this.m_TR);
}
this.m_PrintReport.AppendChild(this.m_Div);
}
}
HtmlPage.Window.Invoke("printfunction", m_PrintReport);
