Hi! Use a TextFrame. The TextFrame will be on the "current" page (i. e. last page) and can have an absolute position. |

I actually never find out how to set the absolute position, I found out that textFrame only has top and left properties. I would appreciate if someone could give me an example |

Here's an example for a right-aligned textframe: Code: TextFrame tf = footer.AddTextFrame(); tf.RelativeHorizontal = RelativeHorizontal.Page; tf.RelativeVertical = RelativeVertical.Paragraph; tf.Left = ShapePosition.Right; tf.WrapFormat.Style = WrapStyle.Through; tf.Width = Unit.FromMillimeter(36); tf.Height = Unit.FromPoint(12 + 2); You can also set tf.Top to ShapePosition.Bottom for a bottom-aligned textframe. |

Hi, I have same problem and because I am new in C#, I did not understand your instruction, Actually I solved my problem with a silly method. I run my report first and count the actual pages = Z and re-run the report and use Z in second time report. Could you please help me how can I use "TextFrame". Thank you in advance Robert |

With MigraDoc you can use Code: paragraph.AddNumPagesField(); to display the number of pages in a document (MigraDoc does the counting for you). RobertB wrote: Could you please help me how can I use "TextFrame". I'm not sure if I understand that question. Simply call "AddTextFrame()" to get a new textframe, then set its properties. AddTextFrame is supported by e. g. Section, HeaderFooter, and Cell. |

Hi, Thank you so much for your reply, let me describe my problem, Suppose that I am going to create a PDF report, how many page is it? I do not know, but I do need to have page X of Y in my all report's pages, and because I can not go back to the previous pages to write "Page: X of Y", when generating report finished, I just create a report twice, at first time I generate the report to count number of the pages, with a temp name, then delete report from the my hard disk and again generate the same report, but in second time I do have number of pages (here is Y) and I can write it in my each page. (I know what X is in each page) I hope, I made it clearly. of course it takes time to create a report with your program but it is fantastic, because I can control on eveything and I do not depend on any external sotware and its setting up in other computers. I have recommended it to most of my friends. by the way if my litreture is not polite, I apologize because English is my second language. Thank you and good luck Robert |

Hi! RobertB wrote: but I do need to have page X of Y in my all report's pages, and because I can not go back to the previous pages to write "Page: X of Y", when generating report finished, [...] With MigraDoc you use "paragraph.AddNumPagesField();" instead of "Y" and "paragraph.AddPageField();" instead of "X" and MigraDoc does the counting. And even better: you can add this code once to the page footer (or header) and MigraDoc will repeat it automatically on every page (until a new section with a different header/footer starts). With PDFsharp, you can keep all pages in an array - and when the document is done you can add "page X of Y" before saving the document. |
