How to hide page numbers on Pdf

starhu · Post by **starhu** » Wed Feb 26, 2014 7:43 pm

Hello,

I exported ScaleRichview using Gnostice EdocEngine.

In the SRichViewEdit I set the pagenumbers to be hidden, however it can be seen in the generated Pdf.

Is this a ScaleRichview setting or EdocEngine setting?

In gtPDFEngine I set CalculateVariables := false and AutoPaginate := false ;

Thank you

ScaleRichView exporter for eDocEngine was written by Gnostice, so I do not know its settings.
But it should call either DrawPage or DrawMetafile method of TSRichViewEdit.
Look what is passed to "PageNoVisible" parameter in this call (the 3d parameter from the end)

Starhu: would you be able to hide the page number when generating the PDF file with Gnostice EdocEngine?
I have exactly the same problem.

Thanks and regards,
Martin

Yagui:

This is the solution:

In unit gtScaleRichviewIntf
in method makepagemetafile change
ASRichViewEdit.DrawMetafile(PageNo, Result, True, True, False);
to
ASRichViewEdit.DrawMetafile(PageNo, Result,False, True, False);

Thanks a lot Starhu!!!.

I went a little further and I've change the method invocation to:

Code: Select all

ASRichViewEdit.DrawMetafile(PageNo, Result,ASRichViewEdit.PageProperty.PageNoVisible,True,False);

so it uses the configuration defined in TSRichViewEdit object.

Thanks and regards,
Martin

Martin:
You are welcome!

It was clever, what you did, I'm going to use this code myself, too.

A page-number field for insertion in headers and footers will be implemented in this month, so displaying them separately will be an obsolete feature.

I'm still having problems generating PDF files. The botton margin from page 2 and the next pages is not taked into account. The botton margin for page 1 is ok, but in page 2, 3, 4, etc it writes text where it should be blank.

I've use the demo ScaleRichViewDemo.exe with my own RFT file (RTF created from ScaleRichView export option) and I've got the same wrong result, page 1 botton margin ok but the following pages not.

Starhu, did you have the same problem?.

Thanks and regards,
Martin
