DocumentUpdatePageLayout Method

Rebuilds the page layout of the document.

Namespace:  Aspose.Words
Assembly:  Aspose.Words (in Aspose.Words.dll) Version: 20.3
Syntax
public void UpdatePageLayout()
Remarks

This method formats a document into pages and updates the page number related fields in the document such as PAGE, PAGES, PAGEREF and REF. The up-to-date page layout information is required for a correct rendering of the document to fixed-page formats.

This method is automatically invoked when you first convert a document to PDF, XPS, image or print it. However, if you modify the document after rendering and then attempt to render it again - Aspose.Words will not update the page layout automatically. In this case you should call UpdatePageLayout before rendering again.

Examples
Shows when to request page layout of the document to be recalculated.
Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "Rendering.docx");

// Saving a document to PDF or to image or printing for the first time will automatically
// layout document pages and this information will be cached inside the document
doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Rendering.UpdatePageLayout.1.pdf");

// Modify the document in any way
doc.Styles["Normal"].Font.Size = 6;
doc.Sections[0].PageSetup.Orientation = Aspose.Words.Orientation.Landscape;

// In the current version of Aspose.Words, modifying the document does not automatically rebuild 
// the cached page layout. If you want to save to PDF or render a modified document again,
// you need to manually request page layout to be updated
doc.UpdatePageLayout();

doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Rendering.UpdatePageLayout.2.pdf");
