The IronPDF MVC .NET Core extension provides MVC utility methods, such as RenderRazorViewToPdf, to convert Views into PDF documents in an ASP.NET Core Web App (Model-View-Controller) project. The main IronPdf package is also required for this functionality.

Please visit "How to Convert Views to PDFs in ASP.NET Core MVC" for a comprehensive guide on how to use the package.

C# Code Example

using AutoFixture;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using Models;
using IronPdf.Extensions.Mvc.Core;

namespace IronPdf.MVC.Core.Extention.Demo.Controllers
{
    public class PersonController : Controller
    {
        private readonly ILogger<PersonController> _logger;
        private readonly IRazorViewRenderer _viewRenderService;
        private readonly IHttpContextAccessor _httpContextAccessor;
        public PersonController(ILogger<PersonController> logger, IRazorViewRenderer viewRenderService, IHttpContextAccessor httpContextAccessor)
        {
            _logger = logger;
            _viewRenderService = viewRenderService;
            _httpContextAccessor = httpContextAccessor;
        }

        public async Task<IActionResult> Persons()
        {
    
            var _fixture = new Fixture();
            var persons = _fixture.CreateMany<Person>(20);
               
            if (_httpContextAccessor.HttpContext.Request.Method == HttpMethod.Post.Method)
            {

                var renderer = new ChromePdfRenderer();
                PdfDocument pdf = renderer.RenderRazorViewToPdf(_viewRenderService,"Views/Person/Persons.cshtml", persons);
                Response.Headers.Add("Content-Disposition", "inline");

                return File(pdf.BinaryData, "application/pdf");
            }
            return View(persons);
        }
    }
}

Note: This package installs only as an extension, and you also need to install the IronPDF package to use it in your application.
