    <p>I am trying to create reports in my asp.net MVC3 application after a lot of search I found many blog posts talks about <code>ITextSharp</code> to convert my <code>Html/Razor</code> to <code>Pdf</code> I am trying to parse razor view to get PDf as follows</p> <pre><code> public void Render(ViewContext viewContext, TextWriter writer) { var doc = new Document(); // associate output with response stream var pdfWriter = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, viewContext.HttpContext.Response.OutputStream); pdfWriter.CloseStream = false; viewContext.HttpContext.Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"; viewContext.HttpContext.Response.ContentEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8; // generate view into string var sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder(); TextWriter tw = new System.IO.StringWriter(sb); _result.View.Render(viewContext, tw); var resultCache = sb.ToString(); //Path to our font string arialuniTff = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Fonts), "ARIALUNI.TTF"); //Register the font with iTextSharp iTextSharp.text.FontFactory.Register(arialuniTff); //Create a new stylesheet iTextSharp.text.html.simpleparser.StyleSheet ST = new iTextSharp.text.html.simpleparser.StyleSheet(); //Set the default body font to our registered font's internal name ST.LoadTagStyle(HtmlTags.BODY, HtmlTags.FACE, "Arial Unicode MS"); //Set the default encoding to support Unicode characters ST.LoadTagStyle(HtmlTags.BODY, HtmlTags.ENCODING, BaseFont.IDENTITY_H); //Parse our HTML using the stylesheet created above List&lt;IElement&gt; list = HTMLWorker.ParseToList(new StringReader(resultCache), ST); doc.Open(); //Loop through each element, don't bother wrapping in P tags foreach (var element in list) { doc.Add(element); } doc.Close(); pdfWriter.Close(); } </code></pre> <p>the result of that code is <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/CW7ml.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>which is not correct, the arabic word should be "محمد". so what I need is to set document direction to be from right to left </p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> Thanks to @Romulus</p> <p>I made a little changes to his code i just replaced adding element to <code>PdfPCell</code> to looping on my Html and set some attributes</p> <pre><code> //Loop through each element, don't bother wrapping in P tags foreach (var element in list) { //Create a cell and add text to it //PdfPCell text = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(element.ToString(), f)); //Ensure that wrapping is on, otherwise Right to Left text will not display //text.NoWrap = false; //Add the cell to the table //table.AddCell(text); if (element is iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfPTable) { table = (iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfPTable)element; table.DefaultCell.NoWrap = false; table.RunDirection = PdfWriter.RUN_DIRECTION_RTL; foreach (PdfPRow row in table.Rows) { foreach (PdfPCell cell in row.GetCells()) { cell.RunDirection = PdfWriter.RUN_DIRECTION_RTL; cell.NoWrap = false; } } } } </code></pre> <p>That's working for me now well Thanks :)</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
