Save Method

Description

Initiates saving the currently loaded document. The actual saving is performed by a method which has to be bound to the DocumentServer.Web.DocumentViewer.SaveDocument event.

Syntax

Save(FileFormat)

Saves the document in a specific document format.

public void Save(FileFormat format);

Public Sub Save(format As FileFormat)

Save(string)

Saves the document to a specific path.

public void Save(string path);

Public Sub Save(path As String)

Save(string, FileFormat)

Saves the document to a specific path in a specific document format.

public void Save(string path, FileFormat format);

Public Sub Save(path As String, format As FileFormat)

Examples

DocumentServer.Web.DocumentViewer.Save belongs to the legacy Web Forms viewer. In the current ASP.NET Core viewer, configure the server-rendered component through DocumentViewerSettings.DocumentPath; interactive page state and styling are handled by the viewer client.

documentViewerSettings.DocumentPath = @"App_Data\document.docx";
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(documentViewerSettings.DocumentPath))
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Document Path: {documentViewerSettings.DocumentPath}");
}

documentViewerSettings.DocumentPath = "App_Data\document.docx"
If Not String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(documentViewerSettings.DocumentPath) Then
    Console.WriteLine($"Document Path: {documentViewerSettings.DocumentPath}")
End If

Remarks

A given path is always relating to the server the document viewer is runnig on. Thus, it is good practice to define the path parameter using the HttpServerUtility.MapPath() method.
