Grid PDF export bug

Dear Sir / Madam,

At grid PDF export, in case of allPages: false --> Actual rows are rendered to multiple pages properly, but all pages are written on the first page.

It works well, if I set "options.pdf.multiPage" to "true", but it is not in API reference.

A solution might be if this variable is fixed to true in grid prototype "saveAsPDF" function:
          "options.multiPage = true;" instead of "options.multiPage = options.multiPage || options.allPages;"

Please see this example: https://dojo.telerik.com/usUnUziL/2

Step 1: press "Export to PDF" --> Result: wrong pdf

Step 2: press "Set multiPage: true"

Step 3: press "Export to PDF" --> Result: good pdf

 

Best Regards,

Szabolcs Tóth

Hello, Szabolcs,

Please accept my apology for the delayed response and thank you very much for the runnable example to illustrate the case that you are experiencing and for sharing the workaround you have found as well.

You can add it to the grid pdf options and it will work like that as well:

pdf: {
    multiPage:true,
    avoidLinks: true,
    paperSize: "A4",
    margin: { top: "2cm", left: "1cm", right: "1cm", bottom: "1cm" },
    landscape: true,
    repeatHeaders: true,
    template: $("#page-template").html(),
    scale: 0.8
 },

I will need some more time to verify if the proposed change in the source code is a feasible option and will get back to you when I know more as soon as possible.

Kind Regards,
