Change the way you create documents.
The scryber engine is an advanced, complete, pdf creation library for dotnet core 5. It supports the easy definition of documents, pages, content, shapes and images with html templates and simple code.
If you know HTML you can do it with documents.
scryber supports:
- standard html body, tables, lists, divs and spans and many newer html5 tags
- flowing and flexible layout with multiple pages in css sizes, along with page headers, footers and breaks.
- cascading styles: linked, embedded or inline using css syntax and priority.
- databinding for dynamic content on simple and complex objects with repeating templates.
- iframe and embed imports of external content,
- sizing and positioning of elements inline, block, relative or absolute.
- images and colours with text and shape fills backgrounds and borders.
- SVG drawings and text.
- multiple fonts, including google fonts, with alignment; spacing; leading; decoration and breaking.
If you have used the previous pdfx files, the older templates should continue to work. But we will be concentrating on html, css and svg going forwards.
Getting Started
The easiest way to begin is to use the Nuget Packages here
scryber.core package (Base libraries for GUI or console applications)
OR for asp.net mvc
scryber.core.mvc package (Which includes the scryber.core package).
Check out Read the Docs for more information on how to use the library.
Example Template
Create a new html template file with your content.
<!DOCTYPE HTML >
<html lang='en' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml' >
<head>
<meta charset='utf-8' name='author' content='Richard Hewitson' />
<title>Hello World</title>
<style>
body{
font-family: sans-serif;
font-size: 14pt;
}
p.header {
color: #AAA;
background-color: #333;
background-image: url('../html/images/ScyberLogo2_alpha_small.png');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 10pt 10pt;
background-size: 20pt 20pt;
margin-top: 0pt;
padding: 10pt 10pt 10pt 35pt;
}
.foot td {
border: none;
text-align: center;
font-size: 10pt;
margin-bottom: 10pt;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<header>
<p class="header">Scryber document creation</p>
</header>
<main style="padding:10pt">
<h2 style="{@:model.titlestyle}">{@:model.title}</h2>
<div>We hope you like it.</div>
<ol>
<template data-bind='{@:model.items}'>
<li>{@:.name}</li>
</template>
</ol>
</main>
<footer>
<table class="foot" style="width:100%">
<tr>
<td>{@:author}</td>
<td><page /></td>
<td>Hello World Sample</td>
</tr>
</table>
</footer>
</body>
</html>
From your application code.
//using Scryber.Components
static void Main(string[] args)
{
var path = System.Environment.CurrentDirectory;
path = System.IO.Path.Combine(path, "../../../Content/HTML/READMESample.html");
//create our sample model data.
var model = new
{
titlestyle = "color:#ff6347",
title = "Hello from scryber",
items = new[]
{
new { name = "First item" },
new { name = "Second item" },
new { name = "Third item" },
}
};
using (var doc = Document.ParseDocument(path))
{
//pass data paramters as needed, supporting simple values, arrays or complex classes.
doc.Params["author"] = "Scryber Engine";
doc.Params["model"] = model;
//And save it to a file or a stream
using (var stream = new System.IO.FileStream("READMESample.pdf", System.IO.FileMode.Create))
{
doc.SaveAsPDF(stream);
}
}
}
Or from an MVC web application
//using Scryber.Components
//using Scryber.Components.Mvc
public IActionResult HelloWorld(string title = "This is the title")
{
using(var doc = Document.ParseDocument("[input template]"))
{
doc.Params["author"] = "Scryber Engine";
doc.Params["model"] = GetMyParameters(title);
//This will output to the response inline.
return this.PDF(doc); // inline:false, outputFileName:"HelloWorld.pdf"
}
}
And the output

5.0.5.4
The April release is a bit of a catch up and fix with updates for:
Supporting parsed JSON objects in binding - along with std types and dynamic objects.
margin:value is applied to all margins even if explicit left, right etc. has been previously applied.
Conformance is now carried through to templates, so errors are not indavertantly raised inside the template.
Missing background images will not raise an error.
Support for data images (src='data:image/..') within content - thanks Dan Rusu!
Images are not duplicated within the output for the same source.
5.0.5.1
Minor enhancement for supporting parsed JSON as a parameter model, and margin an padding fix for a single value applied to all.
5.0.5
Multiple enhancements including
Embed and iFrame support.
Binding speed improvements for longer documents.
Support for border-left, border-right, etc
Support for encryption and restrictions
Support for base href in template files.
Classes and styles on templates are supported.
Added em, strong, strike, del, ins elements
Html column width and break inside
CSS and HTML Logging
Fixed application of multiple styles with the same word inside
Allow missing images on the document is now supported.
Contain fill style for background images.
