Hello,
I'm using HtmlDataGrid with pagination on a webpage and I need to add buttons for exporting and downloading the grid data to CSV and PDF files.

Before I go further, I would like to know if there's any built-in or recommended solution for adding these features.

Also, for the PDF format and printing, is there any way so I can have the HtmlDataGrid with the same look and formatting for the table, headers, colors, etc. in the result PDF file?

Thank you in advance,
Kathy

There's nothing built in for that and HTML->PDF isn't really a good match.

You can use wkhtmltopdf which is an external EXE that can take a Web page and turn it into a PDF. I use this in Markdown Monster to generate PDF output from Markdown generated HTML.

It works but it's a large EXE that has to be externally executed and has to run against a file (or URL) to create the output.

CSV is probably easier - you can generate that directly from your data - you don't need the HTML for that.

Thank you so much for the hints and tips.
