Examples
Change Page Margins of a Document Section
Use the CurrentPageLayout
property of a document to access the PDFPageLayout
object that represents the layout of the document. Change the left and right margins of the layout by setting the Left
and Right
properties of the mlreportgen.dom.PageMargins
object used by the PDFPageLayout
object.
import mlreportgen.dom.*; d = Document('mydoc','pdf'); open(d); pageLayoutObj = d.CurrentPageLayout; pageLayoutObj.PageMargins.Left = '2in'; pageLayoutObj.PageMargins.Right = '2in'; p = Paragraph('Hello World'); append(d,p); close(d); rptview(d);
Change the Page Orientation
By default, a PDFPageLayout
object specifies a page with an 11-inch height, 8.5-half inch width, and portrait orientation. To change the orientation to landscape, use the rotate
method of the PDFPageLayout
object. The method updates the property values of the associated mlreportgen.dom.PageSize
object so that the height is 8.5 inches, the width is 11 inches, and the orientation is landscape.
import mlreportgen.dom.*; d = Document('myreport','pdf'); open(d); pageLayoutObj = d.CurrentPageLayout; rotate(pageLayoutObj); append(d,'This document has landscape pages'); close(d); rptview(d);
Add and Customise Page Numbers in a PDF Document
This example shows how to add and customize page numbers in the footer section of a generated PDF document.
Import this namespace so that you do not have to use long, fully qualified class names.
import mlreportgen.dom.*
Create an mlreportgen.dom.Document
object of type PDF with a title.
document = Document("my_pdf_w_page_numbers_document","pdf"); heading = Heading(1,"Customize Page Numbers Example"); append(document,heading);
Add content to the document.
append(document,LineBreak); for pageInd = 1:5 append(document,sprintf("Content of page number %i",pageInd)); append(document,PageBreak); end append(document,Paragraph("Content of last page"));
Add a page footer to the document by assigning an mlreportgen.dom.PDFPageFooter
object to the PageFooters
property of the current page layout. Then set the page number format of the current page layout to uppercase Roman numerals.
curLayout = document.CurrentPageLayout;
curLayout.PageFooters = PDFPageFooter();
curLayout.PageNumberFormat = "I";
Append an mlreportgen.dom.Page
object to the page footer object.
append(curLayout.PageFooters,Page());
Close and view the document.
close(document); rptview(document);
Version History
Introduced in R2016aR2024b: Removal of BMP for image output
Report Generator no longer supports BMP (bitmap) as an output image format. This affects
snapshots, images from files, and watermarks in both the Report Explorer and the Report,
DOM, and PPT APIs. See print
for more information.
