+----------------------------------------------------------
+
+This project can be used to print dhtmlxScheduler to PDF using legacy export extension 
+
+Docs :
+
+  - http://docs.dhtmlx.com/scheduler/pdf_v4.html
+
+Demo:
+
+  - http://docs.dhtmlx.com/scheduler/samples/04_export/05_standalone_export.html

+This version of the export tool won't be actively developed. We encourage you to use the new version of the export tool instead: 
+
+ - https://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxGantt/export.shtml
+ - http://docs.dhtmlx.com/scheduler/pdf.html
+
+
+### Usage
+
+- Add DHTMLX.Export.PDF project to the solution. 
+- Add reference to it from your web project and create a backend handler.
+- Call the handler using client side extension of dhtmlxScheduler http://docs.dhtmlx.com/scheduler/pdf_v4.html#triggeringtheexport
+
+### Sample backend implementation 
+
+#### ASP.NET WebForms
+
+~~~cs
+//Generate.ashx
+
+using System.Web;
+using DHTMLX.Export.PDF;
+using System.Web.Configuration;
+
+public class Generate : IHttpHandler
+{
+
+    public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
+    {           
+        PagesSection pageSection = new PagesSection();
+        pageSection.ValidateRequest = false;
+
+        var generator = new SchedulerPDFWriter();
+        var xml = context.Server.UrlDecode(context.Request.Form["mycoolxmlbody"]);
+        generator.Generate(xml, context.Response);
+    }
+
+    public bool IsReusable { get { return false; } }
+}
+~~~
+
+#### ASP.NET MVC
+
+~~~cs
+using System.IO;
+using System.Web;
+using System.Web.Mvc;
+using DHTMLX.Export.PDF;
+
+namespace scheduler2pdf.Controllers
+{
+    [HandleError]
+    public class GeneratorController : Controller
+    {
+        [ValidateInput(false)]
+        public ActionResult Export()
+        {
+            var generator = new SchedulerPDFWriter();
+            var xml = this.Server.UrlDecode(this.Request.Form["mycoolxmlbody"]);           
+            MemoryStream pdf = generator.Generate(xml);         
+            return File(pdf.ToArray(), generator.ContentType);            
+        }
+    }
+}
