Issue with rendering HTML/CSS

#27002

Hi Team,

I am using .NET trial version of PD4ml and following code:

public static void savePDF()
{
String path = null;
PD4ML PDFcreator = new PD4ML();
PDFcreator.PageSize = PD4Constants.A5;
byte[] bytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(template);

MemoryStream ms_reader = new MemoryStream(bytes);
MemoryStream ms_writer = new MemoryStream(bytes);

StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(ms_reader);

SaveFileDialog saveFileDialog = new SaveFileDialog();
saveFileDialog.InitialDirectory = “%UserProfile%/Desktop”;
saveFileDialog.Filter = “pdf files (*.pdf)|*.pdf”;
saveFileDialog.FilterIndex = 1;
saveFileDialog.RestoreDirectory = true;
StreamWriter writer = null;

Stream myStream = ms_writer;

try
{
if (saveFileDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
path = saveFileDialog.FileName;
writer = new StreamWriter(path);
//PDFcreator.render(ms_reader, writer);
PDFcreator.render(reader, writer);
//PDFcreator.render(ms, myStream);
//PDFcreator.render(reader, myStream);
}
}

catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.StackTrace);
}

finally
{
if (ms_reader != null)
{
ms_reader.Close();
}
if (reader != null)
{
reader.Close();
}
if (writer != null)
{
writer.Close();
}
}
}

I am getting an exception whenever I render this PDF. The exception reads as “Cannot read from Closed stream”; but I am not closing stream before render().

There are 5 render() overloaded methods to writehtml template to a PDF file and I used all of them; but still no luck.

And also I would like to understand is PD4ml trial version not letting me to render HTML as PDF or is PD4ml very strict to HTML tags…

Please suggest.
