Can any one explain how to print the infopath data in sharepoint
If Form is posted in a Form Library AND you have made InfoPath fields available as columns in Form Library, you can add them your your active view, sort them, set page size, export them to excel, or print from there on. You have to promote properties to columns from InfoPath designer. If not already done so for the published template, you need the orignal template, and design it in InfoPath designer.
If columns are not available, you still have form data available in XML and things might take different routes depending where you want to go.
You can programatically read xml of all infopath forms in the form library, apply search filters, do XSLT and generate HTML files, you can set page size or directly send to printer.
You can also use templating techniques if you have a template.

I want to do below task using iText7.
create template using HTML or ..(some fields can be able to hide
according to user input)
Fill the template with the database data
generate accessible pdf
How can I do this?
As far as I understand, you want to have an HTML template where you will fill in data based on user input as well as data coming from your database. This is possible in iText in general, however you would need to do a lot of work, especially if you want to have a template for the PDFs that you are going to generate (as well as the template for the HTML form for capturing data).
It would be nice to have a tool where we design the HTML form and the form with which the output PDF is going to be generated interactively and maybe even using the same resources, sub-forms, sub-templates etc. Then the only thing the technical person would do is to bind the actual data to the form elements. The template will have the logic to show/hid elements or any other conditions that you might come up with. It would simplify the workflow a lot.
iText is working on a product called Dito which was announced in GIDS 2018 in Bangalore, India and a demo session was given. Dito is going to do exactly what you want and what I describe above. You can find the presentation here: http://www.developermarch.com/developersummit/downloadPDF/Dito.pdf

I am making WPF application in C#.
I want to make users to fill up some fields in program and after clicking Save it will save document (XPS or PDF) from template with filled fields.
I started learning Net and C# about 2 weeks ago and don't know what is the best way in this application to make a filled document from template and user input.
You can use Report Viewer Control for that. It will allow you to create a template in .rdlc format and then fill in parameters during run-time.
Check out official page here
most of the time we point store procedure or table and then SSRS report designer show us field and we just drag drop those field on to report designer surface. after all we call those report programmatically and pass parameter and report shown on report viewer.
now my company want that customer will customize the report who will see the report. they want to display all the fields in a form and just customer will select each field and place on report designer surface and give some input like filter condition like date range or employee id etc and report will be shown. also at run time if customer want they can add text or move existing field etc.
i do not have any idea how could i do this with SSRS. if this is possible with SSRS then please guide me in such a way as a result i can start the job or if possible give me few relevant url of that kind from where i can get the idea. thanks
SSRS is capable of reading reports generated on-the-fly, but they have to be made just right. SSRS reports are XML documents that specify the data structure and report object structures and how the two are related. Using Visual Studio, you can use certain classes to create the XML document which is then read & filled with data on the server, then exported to the client as a standard webpage.
Here is a link to a tutorial. This should be a good starting point.
Here is a small but working example of generating RDL on-the-fly with some useful links to MSDN documentation: "How to dynamically generate SSRS Report in Code"
Hope it helps!
I am having some trouble with Report Viewer and RDLC files.
I have never before worked with any of these so I am still learning. I am looking for a guide to do the following.
I want to generate a report from a single object, ie. I have a list of objects and I want to pass say the first object to the report and then display the data contained in the properties of that object.
So basically I have a form which is completed and saved into my database, I have a custom object that stores the data captured in the form. I then want to click save and generate. This I then want to generate the report from the data captured on the page.
Any advise and guides would be appreciated.
I already have a xsd file generated from my object that I use as the dataset, I want to now supply the data.
It's very simple, but it's too long to write all the passages.
In short, you have to:
Create your RDLC file from the report designer
Bind your RDLC file with the DataSet you have
(Option) Bind your report with the ReportViewer to show it on your webpage
The third passage is optional because you can also write code to render directly your report and put it in download as pdf file (or excel).
This blog's post explain a lot of passages so just have a look at it.
There is also the famousgotreportviewer website but it's a bit outdated (still has good examples)
I would create many forms with different outputs but i wish to design the form only once.
First - HTML:
the form must be displayed in
Internet Explorer
the values (the user fills out the
form) must be saved in a database
the form must be displayed with
the previus saved values in Internet
Explorer
Second - PDF:
the form must be exported as pdf
with the previus saved values
Requirements:
desing the form only once
display+edit as html
display as pdf
Optional:
support for javascript on client-side
for validation
I'm not sure whats the best way.
I could use libarys/tools like wkhtmltopdf or dompdf but i'm not sure if whether this also supports filled out html-form.
Imo XSL, XSLT and XSL:FO isn't an option because, if i understand that right i must create an XSL:FO for HTML-Output and one for PDF-Output.
What does you think?
I don't know if it could be useful for all your points, but Crystal Reports files (.rpt) can be filled then exported quite well to Pdf, html or Word. It can take some time to get it working though (at work we use the version integrated in VS2008)...
Have a look at Stimulsoft.Web gels a lot with C# and you can export to anything + you can buy the sourcecode also,less expensive.
