Beginner help: Being able to export to pdf in some way in IWP

[acidt]

Hello,

Do you happen to know any way to be able to export to pdf in IWP ?

I know the exporting to pdf function is not web compatible. But I searched a bit and I found two ways:

- FM Robot: just dedicate a machine to run an apple script all the time. The script checks for certain fields in loop until it finds its trigger and then the script exports to pdf and uploads the file to a container; the user then downloads the pdf from the container which is available online.

- FM server: I forgot about this method but I remember that that script I spoke about above can be done in the FM server (not sure if advanced version is required)

Do you know any other way/ better way?

It would be great if I can find a workaround using only filemaker 11 version.

FM Server scripts do NOT support Save As PDF.

A robot client that's in a loop which looks for a queued request is the best way to go. I don't see the need for AppleScript. You also could email the PDF rather than upload it.
