How to print a WPF flow document table across multiple pages if there are too many columns to fit on one page?

Question

Hi!

I think the question title is self-explaining. I have a flow document with a table which has too many columns to fit on one page. Is there a way to print the columns across multiple pages?

c1 = Column 1
c2 = Column 2
etc.

+-------------+ +-------------+
| Page 1      | | Page 2      |
|             | |             |
| c1 c2 c3 c4 | | c5 c6 c7 c8 |
|             | |             |
|             | |             |
|             | |             |
|             | |             |
|             | |             |

Answer 1

Unfortunately, that's not possible in WPF currently. FlowDocument (and it's contents) will only ever paginate vertically, not horizontally.

Answer 2

Actually it is possible to do this.

you can calculate values using the following.

FlowDocument.PageWidth
FlowDocument.ColumnWidth
FlowDocument.ColumnGap
FlowDocument.PagePadding

This along with column width specifications in your xaml could get you the desired effect
