Hi All,
I want to convert a string made of html & css into pdf.
I have done that, My problem is that pdf doesn't repeat the table header in every page, my clients wants this.
I need to repeat table header in every page and at the end of every page, there should be proper ending horizontal line.

What I have tried:

I have tried thead{display: table-header-group;}
also tried different c# code but result was same.

So you do not want to convert HTML to PDF, but PRINT! HTML to PDF... Search solutions along that line!

Either have those headers added to your HTML or use one of many reporting tools and create report that will take the data without any need for html formatting. CrystalReports, FastReports, MS Report Builder and others are easily available.

If you are using itextsharp to generate PDF, and adding PdfPTable to iTextSharp.text.Document
Use below line, this will create header row on each page while generating PDF

PdfPTable.HeaderRows = 1;
