Hi,

I'm new to PdfSharp and I'm trying to generate invoices to PDF from a C# .NET webforms project. Previously we were using another tool to convert HTML page to PDF but had so many limitations due to rendering issues.

Can someone please point me in the right direction. Our invoices need to have a light thin border around each page (full-height regardless of content), what is the correct way to achieve this? Is it using TextFrame or should I be drawing a rectangle or use a background image?

Invoice example: https://prnt.sc/uj4wpq

Many thanks

All three are viable options.
Textframes work if you use MigraDoc.
Rectangles work if you use PDFsharp alone or mix MigraDoc and PDFsharp.
Background images work with all three approaches.

Which approach are you using/considering?

Hi,

Thanks for the quick response. I'm not sure which approach to use at this point, I guess I'll look at Textframes first. I can't find a great number of examples/tutorials so any links would be appreciated.
