I created a print button for the QTableWidget where I display the db data, but after the dialog window that appears, I get an error. my code is as below :

def PrintPrinter(self):
    printer = QPrinter(QPrinter.HighResolution)
    dialog = QPrintDialog(printer, self)
    if dialog.exec_() == QPrintDialog.Accepted:
        self.ui.table_PrinterData.print_(printer)

if the result:
AttributeError: 'PySide2.QtWidgets.QTableWidget' object has no attribute 'print_'

It takes a screenshot of the tablewidget when I use render() instead of "print_"

I tried to look for examples from external sources but only found published examples on QTableView. I need information on how to proceed

There is an example on github

i hadn't seen this... i'll try it now i hope it works...thank you

to style the borders:

    def handlePaintRequest(self, printer):
        tableFormat = QtGui.QTextTableFormat()
        tableFormat.setBorder(0.5)
        tableFormat.setBorderStyle(3)
        tableFormat.setCellSpacing(0);
        tableFormat.setTopMargin(0);
        tableFormat.setCellPadding(4)
        document = QtGui.QTextDocument()
        cursor = QtGui.QTextCursor(document)
        table = cursor.insertTable(
            self.table.rowCount(), self.table.columnCount(), tableFormat)
        for row in range(table.rows()):
            for col in range(table.columns()):
                cursor.insertText(self.table.item(row, col).text())
                cursor.movePosition(QtGui.QTextCursor.NextCell)
        document.print_(printer)

                cursor.movePosition(QtGui.QTextCursor.NextCell)
        document.print_(printer)

i managed to adapt it now it's working...now i can work on the excel export method

Hi! I checked the code, but when I save the PDF file and open it, it doesn't load.

How do you save it? Print to PDF?

When we get to the print form we have the option to save it in PDF, then when I run the PDF it doesn't open.

Only someone who uses Windows can probably help there.
