How it composes

From intent
to working system.

Capture

A visual or document becomes a portable print document.

Paginate

Ticket and layout rules resolve page boundaries and placement.

Preview

Reusable UI presents pages, options, and navigation.

Commit

The same session proceeds to export or platform submission.

Quick start

Adopt this
capability.

Start with the primary module, then add the related packages only when the application needs those layers. Replace VERSION with the current NuGet version.

dotnet add package PrintingTools.Core
dotnet add package PrintingTools.UI

<PackageReference Include="PrintingTools.Core" Version="VERSION" />

<PackageVersion Include="PrintingTools.Core" Version="VERSION" />

var request = new PrintRequest(PrintDocument.FromVisual(report))
{
    Ticket = PrintTicketModel.CreateDefault(),
    Description = "Quarterly report"
};
var session = await manager.RequestSessionAsync(request);
var preview = await manager.CreatePreviewAsync(session);
