Hi,

I've used [RenderAsPDF(AutoConvert = false)] a lot and that works great, I now have a different scenario where I need to create a PDF attachment and send it via email.

I have it all working with:
HtmlToPdf.ConvertUrl(pdfUrl, memoryStream, options); //options contain cookie credentials

The generated PDF is only 50KB so do you have any idea why it takes 30 + seconds to generate?

Thanks,
Kevin

Have you got an example of an action that calls another action that has the PDF attribute on it?

e.g.

public ActionResult MethodA()
{
var pdfStream = GeneratePdf();

//How do I get a memoryStream of the view GeneratedPdf?

return View();
}

[RenderAsPDF(AutoConvert = false, SendToClient = false)]
public ActionResult GeneratePdf()
{
return View();
}

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi,

In my example, OnResultExecuted is called twice but the result is empty for the the action GeneratePdf(). I only want an attachment PDF generated for GeneratedPdf() but it needs to be called via MethodA().

[RenderAsPDF(SendToClient = false)]
public ActionResult MethodA()
{
var pdfStream = GeneratePdf();

//How do I get a memoryStream of the view GeneratedPdf?

return View();
}

[RenderAsPDF(SendToClient = false)]
public ActionResult GeneratePdf()
{
return View();
}

protected override void OnResultExecuted(ResultExecutedContext filterContext)
{
base.OnResultExecuted(filterContext);

EO.Pdf.HtmlToPdfResult result = MVCToPDF.Result;

if (result != null)
{
//this is null for GeneratePdf();
//I only get a result for MethodA(); when I open that PDF I get 'Object moved here' and the word 'here' is a URL to the page that I want a PDF generated of.
}
}
