Post subject:  Increase first page header margin only
Hey guys,

How can I increase the margin of my first page header only?

On my first page I have a company logo. If I set the Section.PageSetup.TopMargin it sets the margin for all pages. Here's my code for setting up the header:

Code:
var section = doc.AddSection();
      section.PageSetup.DifferentFirstPageHeaderFooter = true;

      var image = section.Headers.FirstPage.AddImage("logo.png");
      image.Width = "4cm";
      image.LockAspectRatio = true;
      image.RelativeVertical = RelativeVertical.Line;
      image.RelativeHorizontal = RelativeHorizontal.Margin;
      image.Top = ShapePosition.Top;
      image.Left = ShapePosition.Right;

      // doc content

      var heading = section.AddParagraph("This is a heading");

Hi!

As a workaround, I would add an empty paragraph to the first page (before the visible heading) and set its height to get that extra margin.
Or create a special style for the first heading on the first page and set SpaceBefore for this style.

Hi Thomas,

I can't see an option for specifying the Height of a Paragraph.

Thanks,

To set the spacing with the first paragraph, try something like this:
Code:
paragraph.Format.SpaceBefore = "20mm";


Or if you add an empty dummy paragraph, try something like this:
Code:
paragraph.Format.LineSpacingRule = LineSpacingRule.Exactly;
paragraph.Format.LineSpacing = "20mm";

Thanks, that works great. Out of interest what is the standard Unit type for SpaceBefore/After?

The standard is points (1/72").
