Hi,

Please provide a sample code for setting up back color for the document. I saw code to set up the same for cells. But need to set up for the whole document.

Thank you,

Ali

Hi

Thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately there is no direct method to set background color of the whole document. But I think that you can use the following code as a workaround.

Document doc = new Document();

DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

builder.MoveToHeaderFooter(HeaderFooterType.HeaderPrimary);

Shape background = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.Rectangle);

background.Width = builder.CurrentSection.PageSetup.PageWidth;

background.Height = builder.CurrentSection.PageSetup.PageHeight;

background.BehindText = true;

background.RelativeHorizontalPosition = RelativeHorizontalPosition.Page;

background.RelativeVerticalPosition = RelativeVerticalPosition.Page;

background.VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Center;

background.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Center;

background.FillColor = Color.Red;

builder.CurrentParagraph.AppendChild(background);

doc.Save(@"Test274\out.doc");

This code inserts filled rectangle behind document content.

Hope this helps.

Best regards.
