PrintingSystemBase.SaveDocument(Stream) Method
Saves a document to a Stream object in a native XML format (PRNX).
Namespace: DevExpress.XtraPrinting
Assembly: DevExpress.Printing.v18.2.Core.dll
Declaration
Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
stream | Stream | A Stream object to which the created PRNX file should be sent. |
Remarks
Use the SaveDocument and PrintingSystemBase.LoadDocument methods to save a printing system’s document (all its pages and bricks) to a PRNX file, and then load it into another printing system instance. This may be required, for example, when it’s necessary to pass a generated report to another machine that doesn’t have access to the same data as the machine that generated the report.
In addition, the printing system’s PrintingSystemBase.ExportOptions provides the ExportOptions.NativeFormat property, which specifies how a document should be saved to a PRNX file. For example, set the NativeFormatOptions.Compressed property to true to reduce the size of the resulting PRNX file.
Note
Before saving a printing system’s document, it must be created. For example, use the LinkBase.CreateDocument method for this.
