    wow, that really helped a lot!
    PDF looks like this now:
    1e366b52-8e28-4e79-8d6e-2218b11960c6-grafik.png

    What I dont understand now are two things:

    How can I make the logo available for the QTextDocument?
    The logo is visible in the html document:
    3f2274de-bf23-48a3-8750-c85951d45572-grafik.png
    but it still appears as a placeholder in the PDF.

    What do you mean by constructing the document block by block? Should I use multiple html files and print each of them to the document? Like:

        document1.setHtml(html1);
    document1.print(&pdfWriter);
    document2.setHtml(html2);
    document2.print(&pdfWriter);
    document3.setHtml(html3);
    document3.print(&pdfWriter);

    Thank you so much, I am really stepping forward now.

    @Thomas-63 QTextDocument is a container built from QTextBlock parts. Essentially, what you do, is insert one such block - which is rather cumbersome when it comes to manipulating the content (you manipulate it through QTextCursor - it is not that complicated after all, just lots of reading). That's high level theory. Please take a look at https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtextcursor.html#insertBlock - the cursor object is your gateway to editing.

    In practice, I think, you need two blocks: first one comes with the logo, second can be as is (assuming you'll take out the logo from html). I shall assume that the logo is the first item in your document, please correct me if that assumption is wrong.
    I have not tested yet but based on my experience what you need to do is:

    • put logo in the resource file, so we know its path (i.e.: ":/img/logo.png" should logo reside under the prefix img)
    • obtain cursor from the very start:
    QTextCursor crs(&document);

    Then take a look here https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtextcursor.html#insertImage-2 and choose appropriate approach. Experiment with positioning the cursor in the document (by setPostion() method).

    Once the logo is in place, adjust position again and call https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtextcursor.html#insertBlock
    Then simply insert the rest of your html.

    Please let me know if you find that troublesome, I can prototype this for you later.

    For more information please re-read.

    Kind Regards,
    Artur

      Hey Artur
      Thank you so much! Now I am getting closer and closer to what I desired.
      There is only one more issue: It is a two side PDF and I cant find a place to start a new page.

          It should auto page, I think?
          https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtextdocument.html#print

          "If the document is already paginated through a specified height in the pageSize() property it is printed as-is.

          If the document is not paginated, like for example a document used in a QTextEdit, then a temporary copy of the document is created and the copy is broken into multiple pages according to the size of the paint device's paperRect(). By default a 2 cm margin is set around the document contents. In addition the current page number is printed at the bottom of each page."

          @Thomas-63 said in Expand printed area in a PDF:

          the table borders disappear when printing

          All of them? Some of them? Have you tried thicker line? Reasons can be many...

          Artur

            I solved the pagination within the html code.

            All of the frames and lines are gone. I even tried 5 px - nothing
            HTML preview in Browser:

            PDF:

            Interestingly the background color in cells does work:

              @Thomas-63 a bit weird. As you can see above my test had lines in it.
              Can you share the modified html so I can test too? And your current code please. Let's fix it :)

                    @Thomas-63 Okay, that's an interesting mix of html and QTextDocument structures, not something I attempted.

                    However: tableFormat.setBorder(0); That, obviously, sets border to zero so it can't be visible since it is not there.

                    If you'd like to mix border/no border elements you likely need to separate them. So, I'd assume, new table with new QTextTableFormat. Please verify my reasoning?

                    Another, rather cosmetic thing: below is redundant:

                    QImage resizedImg = img.scaled(QSize(286,56),Qt::IgnoreAspectRatio, Qt::SmoothTransformation);
document.addResource(QTextDocument::ImageResource, QUrl("Logo.jpg"), QVariant(resizedImg));

                    You can do just

                    document.addResource(QTextDocument::ImageResource,QUrl("Logo.jpg"),img.scaled(QSize(286,56),Qt::IgnoreAspectRatio, Qt::SmoothTransformation);

                    At any rate, please check that setBorder(0);?

                    For more information please re-read.

                    Kind Regards,
                    Artur

                      @artwaw Hello and sory fo rot responding so ong - i was on holiday.

                      i modified that redundant line, thanks.

                      That setBorder(0) only removes the border from the top table with the logo:
                      2c8d8703-f5ea-4bcf-8469-ffcf307af633-grafik.png

                      all the othe borders are not affected.

                          Why do you even spend that much effort with me?

                            @Thomas-63 It's fun? I like solving problems and I like to learn. Crosswords are boring.

                            There is also that little thing: I learned most of what I know about Qt from this very forum (and the manual). So it's only fair to return the favour.

                              @Thomas-63 More to the point - I ran the code you supplied (happy to share my full test sources with you) and for me it looks like this:

                              So now I am puzzled.
