Creating a PDF with Tables

Follow these steps to create structured tables in a PDF using the TableOptions class:

  1. Configure the TableOptions object to define table structure, content, and input/output files.
  2. Add tables, rows, and cells to your PDF.
  3. Finalize the table generation process using the AddTable method.

Here’s an example:

​
 1// Configure table options
 2var options = new TableOptions();
 3options.InsertPageBefore(1)
 4   .AddTable()
 5        .AddRow()
 6            .AddCell().AddParagraph("Name")
 7            .AddCell().AddParagraph("Age")
 8        .AddRow()
 9            .AddCell().AddParagraph("Bob")
10            .AddCell().AddParagraph("12")
11        .AddRow()
12            .AddCell().AddParagraph("Sam")
13            .AddCell().AddParagraph("20")
14        .AddRow()
15            .AddCell().AddParagraph("Sandy")
16            .AddCell().AddParagraph("26")
17        .AddRow()
18            .AddCell().AddParagraph("Tom")
19            .AddCell().AddParagraph("12")
20        .AddRow()
21            .AddCell().AddParagraph("Jim")
22            .AddCell().AddParagraph("27");
23// Add input file path
24options.AddInput(new FileDataSource("path_to_input.pdf"));
25// Set output file path
26options.AddOutput(new FileDataSource("path_to_output.pdf"));
27// Perform the process
28PdfManager.AddTable(options);

Set page of the table

Follow these steps to create table in a PDF after 2 page: Here’s an example:

​
 1var options = new TableOptions();
 2options.InsertPageBefore(2) // Add table before page 2
 3   .AddTable()
 4        .AddRow()
 5            .AddCell().AddParagraph("Name")
 6            .AddCell().AddParagraph("Age")
 7// Add input file path
 8options.AddInput(new FileDataSource("path_to_input.pdf"));
 9// Set output file path
10options.AddOutput(new FileDataSource("path_to_output.pdf"));
11// Perform the process
12PdfManager.AddTable(options);
