Grid also offers more flexible resizing behavior than Table and lighter weight then a Table. It derives from the Panel element which is best used inside of forms. This article is mainly talk about how to merge cells in grid via Spire.PDF.
Prerequisite:
- Download Spire.PDF for .NET (or Spire.Office for .NET) and install it on your system.
- Add Spire.PDF.dll as reference in the downloaded Bin folder thought the below path: "..\Spire.PDF\Bin\NET4.0\ Spire.PDF.dll".
- Check the codes as below in C#:
Here are the detail steps:
Step 1: Create a new PDF document and add a new page.
PdfDocument doc = new PdfDocument(); PdfPageBase page = doc.Pages.Add();
Step 2: Add a new grid with 5 columns and 2 rows, and set height and width.
PdfGrid grid = new PdfGrid();
grid.Columns.Add(5);
float width = page.Canvas.ClientSize.Width - (grid.Columns.Count + 1);
for (int j = 0; j < grid.Columns.Count;j++)
{
grid.Columns[j].Width = width * 0.20f;
}
PdfGridRow row0 = grid.Rows.Add();
PdfGridRow row1 = grid.Rows.Add();
float height = 20.0f;
for (int i = 0; i < grid.Rows.Count; i++)
{
grid.Rows[i].Height = height;
}
Step 3: Draw the current grid.
grid.Draw(page, new PointF(0, 50));
Step 4: Set the font of the grid and fill some content in the cells. Use RowSpan and ColumnSpan to merge certain cells vertically and horizontally.
row0.Style.Font = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("Arial", 16f, FontStyle.Bold), true);
row1.Style.Font = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("Arial", 16f, FontStyle.Italic), true);
row0.Cells[0].Value = "Corporation";
row0.Cells[0].RowSpan = 2;
row0.Cells[1].Value = "B&K Undersea Photo";
row0.Cells[1].StringFormat = new PdfStringFormat(PdfTextAlignment.Center, PdfVerticalAlignment.Middle);
row0.Cells[1].ColumnSpan = 3;
row0.Cells[4].Value = "World";
row0.Cells[4].Style.Font = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("Arial", 10f, FontStyle.Bold | FontStyle.Italic), true);
row0.Cells[4].StringFormat = new PdfStringFormat(PdfTextAlignment.Center, PdfVerticalAlignment.Middle);
row0.Cells[4].Style.BackgroundBrush = PdfBrushes.LightGreen;
row1.Cells[1].Value = "Diving International Unlimited";
row1.Cells[1].StringFormat = new PdfStringFormat(PdfTextAlignment.Center, PdfVerticalAlignment.Middle);
row1.Cells[1].ColumnSpan = 4;
Step 5: Draw the new grid and save the file, the review it.
grid.Draw(page, new PointF(0, 100));
doc.SaveToFile("result.pdf");
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("result.pdf");
Following is the result screenshot:

for (int j = 0; j < grid.Columns.Count; j++)
{
grid.Columns[j].Width = width * 0.20f;
}
PdfGridRow row0 = grid.Rows.Add();
PdfGridRow row1 = grid.Rows.Add();
float height = 20.0f;
for (int i = 0; i < grid.Rows.Count; i++)
{
grid.Rows[i].Height = height;
}
grid.Draw(page, new PointF(0, 50));
row0.Style.Font = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("Arial", 16f, FontStyle.Bold), true);
row1.Style.Font = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("Arial", 16f, FontStyle.Italic), true);
row0.Cells[0].Value = "Corporation";
row0.Cells[0].RowSpan = 2;
row0.Cells[1].Value = "B&K Undersea Photo";
row0.Cells[1].StringFormat = new PdfStringFormat(PdfTextAlignment.Center, PdfVerticalAlignment.Middle);
row0.Cells[1].ColumnSpan = 3;
row0.Cells[4].Value = "World";
row0.Cells[4].Style.Font = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("Arial", 10f, FontStyle.Bold | FontStyle.Italic), true);

Set position of table in Word Document as outside via Spire.Doc
2015-05-22 08:57:03 Written by KoohjiTable in word document can make your data more logical and uncluttered, this article is talk about set absolute position of table in word document via Spire.Doc. Here try to realize placing a table on the right of an image on header.
Here are the steps:
Step 1: Create a new word document and add new section.
Document doc = new Document(); Section sec = doc.AddSection();
Step 2: Create header on Section[0].
HeaderFooter header = doc.Sections[0].HeadersFooters.Header;
Step 3: Add new paragraph on header and set HorizontalAlignment of the paragraph as left.
Paragraph paragraph = header.AddParagraph(); paragraph.Format.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left;
Step 4: Load an image for the paragraph.
DocPicture headerimage = paragraph.AppendPicture(Image.FromFile(@"1.png"));
Step 5: Add a table of 4 rows and 2 columns.
Table table = header.AddTable(); table.ResetCells(4, 2);
Step 6: Set the position of the table to the right of the image. Set WrapTextAround is true, HorizPositionAbs is outside, VertRelationTo is margin, and VertPosition is 43 to fit the height of the image.
table.TableFormat.WrapTextAround = true; table.TableFormat.Positioning.HorizPositionAbs = HorizontalPosition.Outside; table.TableFormat.Positioning.VertRelationTo = VerticalRelation.Margin; table.TableFormat.Positioning.VertPosition = 43;
Step 7: Then add contents for the table, first column alignment set as left ,second column alignment set as right.
String[][] data = {
new string[] {"Spire.Doc.left","Spire XLS.right"},
new string[] {"Spire.Presentatio.left","Spire.PDF.right"},
new string[] {"Spire.DataExport.left","Spire.PDFViewe.right"},
new string []{"Spire.DocViewer.left","Spire.BarCode.right"}
};
for (int r = 0; r < 4; r++)
{
TableRow dataRow = table.Rows[r];
for (int c = 0; c < 2; c++)
{
if (c == 0)
{
Paragraph par = dataRow.Cells[c].AddParagraph();
par.AppendText(data[r][c]);
par.Format.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left;
dataRow.Cells[c].Width = 180;
}
else
{
Paragraph par = dataRow.Cells[c].AddParagraph();
par.AppendText(data[r][c]);
par.Format.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Right;
dataRow.Cells[c].Width = 180;
}
}
}
Step 8: Save the file and review it.
doc.SaveToFile("result.docx", FileFormat.Docx);
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("result.docx");
Here is the screenshot:
Full Code:
using Spire.Doc;
using Spire.Doc.Documents;
using Spire.Doc.Fields;
using System;
using System.Drawing;
namespace SetPosition
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Document doc = new Document();
Section sec = doc.AddSection();
HeaderFooter header = doc.Sections[0].HeadersFooters.Header;
Paragraph paragraph = header.AddParagraph();
paragraph.Format.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left;
DocPicture headerimage = paragraph.AppendPicture(Image.FromFile(@"1.png"));
Table table = header.AddTable();
table.ResetCells(4, 2);
table.TableFormat.WrapTextAround = true;
table.TableFormat.Positioning.HorizPositionAbs = HorizontalPosition.Outside;
table.TableFormat.Positioning.VertRelationTo = VerticalRelation.Margin;
table.TableFormat.Positioning.VertPosition = 43;
String[][] data = {
new string[] {"Spire.Doc.left","Spire XLS.right"},
new string[] {"Spire.Presentatio.left","Spire.PDF.right"},
new string[] {"Spire.DataExport.left","Spire.PDFViewe.right"},
new string []{"Spire.DocViewer.left","Spire.BarCode.right"}
};
for (int r = 0; r < 4; r++)
{
TableRow dataRow = table.Rows[r];
for (int c = 0; c < 2; c++)
{
if (c == 0)
{
Paragraph par = dataRow.Cells[c].AddParagraph();
par.AppendText(data[r][c]);
par.Format.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left;
dataRow.Cells[c].Width = 180;
}
else
{
Paragraph par = dataRow.Cells[c].AddParagraph();
par.AppendText(data[r][c]);
par.Format.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Right;
dataRow.Cells[c].Width = 180;
}
}
}
doc.SaveToFile("result.docx",Spire.Doc.FileFormat.Docx);
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("result.docx");
}
}
}
