Docs created like this are limited to 60 seconds to render, check out the async example which allows 10 minutes.
We have guides for doing some of the common things:
- Headers and Footers including page skipping
- CSS Media Selector to make the page look exactly as it does in your browser
- Protect content with HTTP authentication or proxies so only DocRaptor can access them
With DocRaptor, it's fast and painless to convert HTML, CSS, and JavaScript into PDF and XLS documents with .NET. Below are working .NET examples for creating documents. Our API reference lists all the generation options and our style and formatting guide will help make it look perfect.
