What this demonstrates
Turn exchange data into a document
CSV is ideal for moving tabular data, but it has no pagination, repeating headers, borders, or layout. This demo parses CSV on the server, constructs a real TX Text Control table, and exports it directly to Adobe PDF.

ServerTextControl.Tables.Add
Repeat table headers
TableRow.IsHeader
Export Adobe PDF

Render with PDF.js

How it works
The importer creates a header row and one styled template data row. It then inserts all remaining rows in a single operation so they inherit the template formatting. The header is marked with IsHeader, allowing it to repeat automatically across PDF pages.
TextFieldParser handles quoted commas and malformed rows before document creation. The finished PDF remains in memory and is returned as Base64 for the Document Viewer.
textControl.Tables.Add(2, columnCount);
table.Rows[1].IsHeader = true;
table.Cells[2, 1].Select();
textControl.Selection.Length = 0;
table.Rows.Add(TableAddPosition.After, dataRowCount - 1);
textControl.Save(out byte[] pdf, BinaryStreamType.AdobePDF);
