I took a legacy code here and I have no experience with Windowsforms.
The case is, a report is generated and saved within a Printdocument type object.
Then it seems that it populates another object, type Printpriviewdialog, and already calls the print dialog that appears the report on the screen.
What I need is just to call nothing and save the PDF to the Printdocument disc, like?

I solved with some parameters that were missing in several tutorials I found and other answers here in Stacko, I do not know why exactly in the guys worked and in my no, maybe it is something relative with versions.
It turned out that I didn’t check if it was really necessary to convert the Printdialog Object to Printdocument, but that’s how I did it:
this.printDocumentFunciona = this.printDialog1.Document;
The implementation itself:
this.printDocumentFunciona.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = "Microsoft XPS Document Writer";
this.printDocumentFunciona.DefaultPageSettings.PrinterSettings.PrintToFile = true;
this.printDocumentFunciona.DefaultPageSettings.PrinterSettings.PrintFileName = "NomeArquivo.xps";
this.printDocumentFunciona.PrintController = new StandardPrintController();
this.printDocumentFunciona.Print();
Importantly, if you select the Foxit Printer, it doesn’t work at all, the dialog always appears to choose the name, but using the Windows XPS printer or the Office/Windows PDF printer, it works without opening anything.

It calls the dialog because it needs you to choose the form (software) to convert to PDF. To do it directly you have to access a library that writes to PDF and usually you have to pay for a.
You can find a post that explains a possible solution here. I haven’t tested but it seems to be exactly what you’re looking for.
So it turned out that I used the standard windows printer even in XPS and it was a good one, it took me to notice some parameters that had to be set and I didn’t know, I’ll put the solution here below, but vlw by link!
