Hi,
I am trying to find a solution for my scenario and not sure if there is any built in feature or library or how to do it.
Scenario:
I have an external system which sends a .TXT file in a well formatted or pre defined formatted text data spaced to a page size.
Eg:
"Title 06/17/2020. emailaddressdata
Data1 Data2 Data3
Data4 XX
autogen doc. *"
Something like that. And I need to put the data onto a form(overlay) which has the details/designed like header, labels etc. and then convert into pdf file.
Current solution I developed is:
I used a windows application and I added and designed a report RDLC form with fields and headings, lines etc, and placed a textbook and at runtime giving the data -above formatted data from input txt file and it overlays perfectly onto it and even the report had render option to create a pdf.
Now the problem is I don't know if it is the right approach and also it doesn't work for multi page thing. I mean the input data can have data related to 1 page or multi page spaced correctly according to document or page size(A4 paper). when overplayed, the form design is applied only to the page 1 as I designed it only 1 page rdlc form.
with my current approach, I cannot keep designing rdlc forms all the way till 1000 pages. I want a dynamic solution and at the end I need to have a pdf files with 1 to 1000 pages (it can be n pages).
Thank you very much, you are help os much appreciated.
