Pdf export in Angular Pivotview component

10 Aug 202424 minutes to read

PDF export allows exporting pivot table data as PDF document. To enable PDF export in the pivot table, set the allowPdfExport as true. You need to use the pdfExport method for PDF exporting.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'



import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { IDataSet, PivotView } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview';
import { Button } from '@syncfusion/ej2-buttons';
import { Pivot_Data } from './datasource';
import { DataSourceSettingsModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pivotview/src/model/datasourcesettings-model';

@Component({
imports: [
        
        PivotViewAllModule,
        PivotFieldListAllModule
    ],


standalone: true,
  selector: 'app-container',
  template: `<div class="col-md-8">

    public pivotGridObj?: PivotView;

    ngOnInit(): void {

        this.width = "100%";

        this.dataSourceSettings = {
            dataSource: Pivot_Data as IDataSet[],

Multiple pivot table exporting

PDF export provides an option for exporting multiple pivot tables to same file. In this exported document, each pivot table will be exported to new page of document in same file.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'

  <div class="col-md-2"><button ej-button id='export'>Export</button></div>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
  public width?: string;
  public dataSourceSettings?: DataSourceSettingsModel;
  public dataSourceSettings1?: DataSourceSettingsModel;
  public button?: Button;
  public firstGridPdfExport?: Promise<Object>;

    @ViewChild('pivotview', {static: false})
    public pivotGridObj?: PivotView;

    @ViewChild('pivotview1')
    public pivotGridObj1?: PivotView;

    ngOnInit(): void {

        this.width = "100%";

        this.dataSourceSettings = {
            dataSource: Pivot_Data as IDataSet[],
            expandAll: false,
            columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],
            values: [{ name: 'Sold', caption: 'Units Sold' }, { name: 'Amount', caption: 'Sold Amount' }],
            rows: [{ name: 'Country' }, { name: 'Products' }],

            this.firstGridPdfExport?.then((pdfData: Object) => {
                this.pivotGridObj1?.pdfExport({}, false, pdfData);
            });
        };
    }
}

bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Export table and chart into the same document

When the displayOption is set to Both, you can export both the table and the chart into the same PDF document. To achieve this, use the pdfExport method and set the exportBothTableAndChart parameter to true.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'

import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { IDataSet, PivotView, PDFExportService, DisplayOption } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview';
import { ChartSettings } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pivotview/src/pivotview/model/chartsettings';
import { Button } from '@syncfusion/ej2-buttons';
import { Pivot_Data } from './datasource';
import { DataSourceSettingsModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pivotview/src/model/datasourcesettings-model';

@Component({
imports: [
        
        PivotViewAllModule,
        PivotFieldListAllModule
    ],


standalone: true,
  selector: 'app-container',
  providers: [PDFExportService],
  template: `<div class="col-md-8">
  <ejs-pivotview #pivotview id='PivotView' height='350' [dataSourceSettings]=dataSourceSettings allowPdfExport='true'
  [displayOption]='displayOption' [chartSettings]='chartSettings' [width]=width></ejs-pivotview></div>
  <div class="col-md-2"><button ej-button id='export'>Export</button></div>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public width?: string;
    public dataSourceSettings?: DataSourceSettingsModel;
    public displayOption?: DisplayOption;
    public chartSettings?: ChartSettings;
    public button?: Button;

    @ViewChild('pivotview', {static: false})
    public pivotGridObj?: PivotView;

    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.dataSourceSettings = {
            dataSource: Pivot_Data as IDataSet[],
            expandAll: true,
            columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],
            rows: [{ name: 'Sold', caption: 'Units Sold' }, { name: 'Amount', caption: 'Sold Amount' }],
            values: [{ name: 'Country' }, { name: 'Products' }],
            formatSettings: [{ name: 'Amount', format: 'C0' }],
            filters: []
        };
        this.width = '100%';

        this.displayOption = { view: 'Both' } as DisplayOption;
        this.chartSettings = { chartSeries: { type: 'Column' }} as ChartSettings;

        this.button = new Button({ isPrimary: true });
        this.button.appendTo('#export');

        this.button.element.onclick = (): void => {
            this.pivotGridObj?.pdfExport(undefined, false, undefined, false, true);
        };
    }
}

Customization during PDF export

PDF export provides option to customize mapping of pivot table to the exported PDF document.

You can customize text, page number, line, page size and changing orientation in header and footer of the exported document.

To add a text in header/footer

You can add text either in header or footer of the exported PDF document like in the below code example.

let pdfExportProperties: PdfExportProperties = {
    header: {
        fromTop: 0,
        height: 130,
        contents: [
            {
                type: 'Text',
                value: "Northwind Traders",
                position: { x: 0, y: 50 },
                style: { textBrushColor: '#000000', fontSize: 13 }
            },

        ]
    }
}

To draw a line in header/footer

You can add line either in header or footer of the exported PDF document like in the below code example.

Supported line styles:

  • dash
  • dot
  • dashdot
  • dashdotdot
  • solid
let pdfExportProperties: PdfExportProperties = {
    header: {
        fromTop: 0,
        height: 130,
        contents: [
            {
                type: 'Line',
                style: { penColor: '#000080', penSize: 2, dashStyle: 'Solid' },
                points: { x1: 0, y1: 4, x2: 685, y2: 4 }
            }
        ]
    }
}

Add page number in header/footer

You can add page number either in header or footer of exported PDF document like in the below code example.

Supported page number types:

  • LowerLatin - a, b, c,
  • UpperLatin - A, B, C,
  • LowerRoman - i, ii, iii,
  • UpperRoman - I, II, III,
  • Number - 1,2,3.
 let pdfExportProperties: PdfExportProperties = {
    header: {
        fromTop: 0,
        height: 130,
        contents: [
            {
                type: 'PageNumber',
                pageNumberType: 'Arabic',
                format: 'Page {$current} of {$total}', //optional
                position: { x: 0, y: 25 },
                style: { textBrushColor: '#ffff80', fontSize: 15, hAlign: 'Center' }
            }
        ]
    }
}

Changing page orientation while exporting

The PDF export provides an option to change page orientation of the document before exporting. In-order to change the page orientation, define pageOrientation property in pdfExportProperties object and pass it as a parameter to the pdfExport method. By default, the page orientation will be in Portrait and it can be changed to Landscape based on user requirement.

Changing document width and height while exporting

Before exporting, you can change the height and width of the PDF document. To achieve this, use the height and width properties in the beforeExport event.

This option is only available if enableVirtualization is set to true. In addition, the VirtualScroll and PDFExport modules must be injected into the pivot table.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'

import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';

    beforeExport(args: BeforeExportEventArgs) {
        args.width = this.pivotGridObj?.element.offsetWidth;
        args.height = this.pivotGridObj?.element.offsetHeight;
    }

    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.dataSourceSettings = {
            dataSource: Pivot_Data as IDataSet[],
            expandAll: true,
            columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],

    }
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Customize the table column count while exporting

Before exporting, you can split and export the pivot table columns on each page of the PDF document by using the columnSize property in the beforeExport event.

This option is only available if enableVirtualization is set to true. In addition, the VirtualScroll and PDFExport modules must be injected into the pivot table.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'

import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';

    public button?: Button;

    @ViewChild('pivotview', {static: false})
    public pivotGridObj?: PivotView;

    beforeExport(args: BeforeExportEventArgs) {
        args.columnSize = 6;
    }

    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.dataSourceSettings = {
            dataSource: Pivot_Data as IDataSet[],
            expandAll: true,
            columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],
            rows: [{ name: 'Sold', caption: 'Units Sold' }, { name: 'Amount', caption: 'Sold Amount' }],
            values: [{ name: 'Country' }, { name: 'Products' }],

    }
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Changing the table’s column width and row height while exporting

You can change the column width and row height in the PDF document during the pivot table export by using the onPdfCellRender event. Within this event, the args.column.width property allows you to change the width of specific columns.

As shown in the code example below, the “Unit Sold” column under “FY 2015” is changed to a width of 60 pixels.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'

import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { PivotView, VirtualScrollService, PDFExportService, IDataSet  } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview';
import { Button } from '@syncfusion/ej2-buttons';
import { Pivot_Data } from './datasource';
import { DataSourceSettingsModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pivotview/src/model/datasourcesettings-model';

@Component({
imports: [
        
        PivotViewAllModule,
        PivotFieldListAllModule
    ],


standalone: true,
  selector: 'app-container',
  providers: [PDFExportService,VirtualScrollService],
  template: `<div class="col-md-8">
  <ejs-pivotview #pivotview id='PivotView' height='350' [dataSourceSettings]=dataSourceSettings allowPdfExport='true'
  enableVirtualization='true' (onPdfCellRender)='onPdfCellRender($event)' [width]=width></ejs-pivotview></div>
  <div class="col-md-2"><button ej-button id='export'>Export</button></div>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public width?: string;
    public dataSourceSettings?: DataSourceSettingsModel;
    public button?: Button;

    @ViewChild('pivotview', {static: false})
    public pivotGridObj?: PivotView;

    onPdfCellRender(args: any) {
        if (args.pivotCell && args.pivotCell.valueSort && args.pivotCell.valueSort.levelName === 'FY 2015.Units Sold') {
            args.column.width = 60
        }
    }

    ngOnInit(): void {

        this.dataSourceSettings = {
            dataSource: Pivot_Data as IDataSet[],
            expandAll: false,
            columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],
            values: [{ name: 'Sold', caption: 'Units Sold' }, { name: 'Amount', caption: 'Sold Amount' }],
            rows: [{ name: 'Country' }, { name: 'Products' }],
            formatSettings: [{ name: 'Amount', format: 'C0' }],
            filters: [],
        };

        this.width = '100%';

        this.button = new Button({ isPrimary: true });
        this.button.appendTo('#export');

        this.button.element.onclick = (): void => {
            this.pivotGridObj?.pdfExport({},false,undefined,false,true);
        };
    }
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Similarly, you can change the height of specific rows in the PDF document by using the args.cell.height property in the onPdfCellRender event.

As shown in the code example below, the “Mountain Bikes” row under “France” is changed to a height of 30 pixels.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'

import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { PivotView, VirtualScrollService, PDFExportService, IDataSet  } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview';

  <div class="col-md-2"><button ej-button id='export'>Export</button></div>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public width?: string;
    public dataSourceSettings?: DataSourceSettingsModel;
    public button?: Button;

    @ViewChild('pivotview', {static: false})
    public pivotGridObj?: PivotView;

    onPdfCellRender(args: any) {
        if (args.pivotCell && args.pivotCell.valueSort && args.pivotCell.valueSort.levelName === 'France.Mountain Bikes') {
            args.cell.height = 30
        }
    }

    ngOnInit(): void {

        this.dataSourceSettings = {
            dataSource: Pivot_Data as IDataSet[],
            expandAll: false,
            drilledMembers: [{ name: 'Country', items: ['France'] }],
            columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],
            values: [{ name: 'Sold', caption: 'Units Sold' }, { name: 'Amount', caption: 'Sold Amount' }],
            rows: [{ name: 'Country' }, { name: 'Products' }],
            formatSettings: [{ name: 'Amount', format: 'C0' }],
            filters: [],
        };

        this.width = '100%';

        this.button = new Button({ isPrimary: true });
        this.button.appendTo('#export');

        this.button.element.onclick = (): void => {
            this.pivotGridObj?.pdfExport({},false,undefined,false,true);
        };
    }
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

This option is only available if enableVirtualization is set to true. In addition, the VirtualScroll and PDFExport modules must be injected into the pivot table.

Changing the pivot table style while exporting

The PDF export provides an option to change colors for headers, caption and records in pivot table before exporting. In-order to apply colors, define theme settings in pdfExportProperties object and pass it as a parameter to the pdfExport method.

By default, material theme is applied to exported PDF document.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'



import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { IDataSet, PivotView } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview';
import { Button } from '@syncfusion/ej2-buttons';
import { PdfExportProperties } from '@syncfusion/ej2-grids';
import { Pivot_Data } from './datasource';
import { DataSourceSettingsModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pivotview/src/model/datasourcesettings-model';

@Component({
imports: [
        
        PivotViewAllModule,
        PivotFieldListAllModule
    ],


standalone: true,
  selector: 'app-container',
  template: `<div class="col-md-8">
  <ejs-pivotview #pivotview id='PivotView' height='350' [dataSourceSettings]=dataSourceSettings allowPdfExport='true' [width]=width></ejs-pivotview></div>
  <div class="col-md-2"><button ej-button id='export'>Export</button></div>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
  public width?: string;
  public dataSourceSettings?: DataSourceSettingsModel;
  public button?: Button;
  public pdfExportProperties?: PdfExportProperties;

    @ViewChild('pivotview', {static: false})
    public pivotGridObj?: PivotView;

    ngOnInit(): void {

        this.width = "100%";

        this.dataSourceSettings = {
            dataSource: Pivot_Data as IDataSet[],
            expandAll: false,
            columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],
            values: [{ name: 'Sold', caption: 'Units Sold' }, { name: 'Amount', caption: 'Sold Amount' }],
            rows: [{ name: 'Country' }, { name: 'Products' }],
            formatSettings: [{ name: 'Amount', format: 'C0' }],
            filters: [],
            valueSortSettings: { headerText: 'FY 2015##Q1##Amount', headerDelimiter: '##', sortOrder: 'Descending' }
        };

        this.button = new Button({ isPrimary: true });
        this.button.appendTo('#export');

        this.button.element.onclick = (): void => {
            this.pdfExportProperties = {
                theme: {
                    header: {
                        fontColor: '#64FA50', fontName: 'Calibri', fontSize: 17, bold: true,
                        borders: { color: '#64FA50', lineStyle: 'Thin' }
                    },
                    record: {
                        fontColor: '#64FA50', fontName: 'Calibri', fontSize: 17, bold: true
                    },
                    caption: {
                        fontColor: '#64FA50', fontName: 'Calibri', fontSize: 17, bold: true
                    }
                }
            } as PdfExportProperties;
            this.pivotGridObj?.pdfExport(this.pdfExportProperties);
        };
    }
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Changing default font while exporting

By default, the pivot table uses “Helvetica” font in the exported document. But it can be changed using the theme property in pdfExportProperties.

The available built-in fonts are,

  • Helvetica
  • TimesRoman
  • Courier
  • Symbol
  • ZapfDingbats
import { PdfStandardFont, PdfFontFamily, PdfFontStyle } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pdf-export'; 

    ...

    let pdfExportProperties: PdfExportProperties = {
         theme: { 
                header: {font:  new PdfStandardFont(PdfFontFamily.TimesRoman, 11, PdfFontStyle.Bold) }, 
                caption: { font: new PdfStandardFont(PdfFontFamily.TimesRoman, 9) }, 
                record: { font: new PdfStandardFont(PdfFontFamily.TimesRoman, 10) } 
            } 
    };

Adding custom font while exporting

In addition to existing built-in fonts, custom fonts can also be used. The custom font should be in Base64 format and mention it in PdfTrueTypeFont class. In the following example, we have used Advent Pro font family that supports Hungarian language.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { PivotViewAllModule, PivotFieldListAllModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-pivotview'



import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';

import { PdfExportProperties } from '@syncfusion/ej2-grids';
import { Pivot_Data, base64AlgeriaFont } from './datasource';
import { PdfTrueTypeFont } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pdf-export';
import { DataSourceSettingsModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pivotview/src/model/datasourcesettings-model';

@Component({

The non-English alphabets can also be exported properly by setting its appropriate font.

Virtual Scroll Data

You can export the pivot table virtual scroll data as PDF document by using PivotEngine export without any performance degradation. To enable PivotEngine export in the pivot table, set the allowPdfExport as true. You need to use the exportToPDF method for PivotEngine export.

To use PivotEngine export, You need to inject the PDFExport module in pivot table.
PivotEngine export will be performed while enabling virtual scrolling by default

Repeat row headers

Repeat row headers on each page can be achieved using PivotEngine export option. To disable repeat row headers, you need to set allowRepeatHeader to false in beforeExport event. You need to use the exportToPDF method for PivotEngine export.

To use PivotEngine export, You need to inject the PDFExport module in pivot table.
By default, repeat row headers is enabled in the PivotEngine export.

Export all pages

The pivot engine exports the entire virtual data of the pivot table (i.e. the data that contains all of the records used to render the complete pivot table) as a PDF document. To export just the current viewport of the pivot table, set the exportAllPages property to false. To use the pivot engine export, add the PDFExport module into the pivot table.

By default, the pivot engine export will be performed while virtual scrolling is enabled.

It has the following parameters:

  • type - It holds the current export type such as PDF, Excel, and CSV.
  • promise - It holds the promise object for blob data.
