Export the Diagram to PDF

Syncfusion® WinForms Diagram supports converting a diagram into PDF format using the Syncfusion® PDF.Base DLL. Initially, you need to create an empty PDF document and add pages to the created document.

Required Dll:

Syncfusion.Pdf.Base

The below code snippet is used to convert the Diagram into PDF format.

[C#]

// Creation of PDF document
Syncfusion.Pdf.PdfDocument pdfdoc = new Syncfusion.Pdf.PdfDocument();
// Adds pages to the created PDF document
pdfdoc.Pages.Add();
// Creation of PDF image
PdfImage pdfImage = Syncfusion.Pdf.Graphics.PdfImage.FromImage(this.diagram1.ExportDiagramAsImage(false));
// Placing the diagram
pdfdoc.Pages[0].Graphics.DrawImage(pdfImage, new PointF(0F, 0F), pdfdoc.Pages[0].GetClientSize());
// Saving the PDF file
pdfdoc.Save("Diagram.pdf");

[VB]

' Creation of PDF document
Dim pdfdoc As New Syncfusion.Pdf.PdfDocument()
' Adds pages to the created PDF document
pdfdoc.Pages.Add()
' Creation of PDF image
                           
Dim pdfImage As PdfImage = Syncfusion.Pdf.Graphics.PdfImage.FromImage(Me.diagram1.ExportDiagramAsImage(False))
' Placing the diagram
pdfdoc.Pages(0).Graphics.DrawImage(pdfImage, New PointF(0F, 0F), pdfdoc.Pages(0).GetClientSize())
' Saving the PDF file
pdfdoc.Save("Diagram.pdf")
