printing to PDF

[singersoll]

I am wondering if anyone else has the same requirement and possible solution. My application is running and I want to generate weekly reports from the data within these tables based on "week ending". You can view my test application at http://167.154.2.203/CHN/ .

I read through the post at -> http://framework.weblite.ca/forum/dataface-users/131316712 but not sure if I am headed in the right direction.

Is there a smart way to generate the data within my tables into a pdf output report?

TIA,
Steve

I haven't had to do anything like this, but I have taken a look at a few of the strategies.Ê The easiest way to generate PDFs, in my opinion is to generate an HTML version of what you want to produce, and then convert it to PDF using a tool like DOMpdf (http://www.digitaljunkies.ca/dompdf/).

In dataface terms, you would be creating a custom action that only displays what you want to have in the PDF version - then using DOMpdf to output the page as a PDF.

As always, appreciate the feedback and assistance.
