Print PDF File in IFrame using javascript getting one page only
Solution 1:
I suspect that's because the whole window gets printed (which has the current view of the iframe with the 1st page of the PDF rendered). Use <object> instead:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"/>
<script>
function PrintPdf() {
idPrint.disabled = 0;
idPdf.Print();
}
function idPdf_onreadystatechange() {
if (idPdf.readyState === 4)
setTimeout(PrintPdf, 1000);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button id="idPrint" disabled=1 onclick="PrintPdf()">Print</button>
<br>
<object id="idPdf" onreadystatechange="idPdf_onreadystatechange()"
width="300" height="400" type="application/pdf"
data="test.pdf?#view=Fit&scrollbar=0&toolbar=0&navpanes=0">
<span>PDF plugin is not available.</span>
</object>
</body>
This code is verified with IE. Other browsers will still render the PDF, but may not print it.
[UPDATE] If you need dynamic loading and printing, the changes to the above code are minimal:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"/>
<script>
function PrintPdf() {
idPdf.Print();
}
function idPdf_onreadystatechange() {
if (idPdf.readyState === 4)
setTimeout(PrintPdf, 1000);
}
function LoadAndPrint(url)
{
idContainer.innerHTML =
'<object id="idPdf" onreadystatechange="idPdf_onreadystatechange()"'+
'width="300" height="400" type="application/pdf"' +
'data="' + url + '?#view=Fit&scrollbar=0&toolbar=0&navpanes=0">' +
'<span>PDF plugin is not available.</span>'+
'</object>';
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button id="idPrint" onclick="LoadAndPrint('http://localhost/example.pdf')">Load and Print</button>
<br>
<div id="idContainer"></div>
</body>
Solution 2:
<iframe src="teste.pdf" id="meupdf" width="800" height="600" />
function printPdf) {
var PDF = document.getElementById("meupdf");
PDF.focus();
PDF.contentWindow.print();
}
