Have to save records as pdf format on server side scripting

Hi,

 

Recently as per client request, i have to send them some data in pdf format from server side on weekly basis. but when i start to work on it, what i found is "save as pdf" step is not supported by server side scripting and "export records as" step as no pdf format extension mentioned.

 

 

 

Please can someone suggest me to overcome my problem.

 

 

Thanks in advance,

I am waiting guys...Help me if have some suggestion.

Hi Genelia,

 

Many people use a "robot" to generate and email PDFs. That is, a dedicated client (could be virtual) that runs a script (onTimer or in a loop) that processes a request for a PDF.

You can use MBS FileMaker Plugin with DynaPDF functions to make PDF on server script.

If you use table functions, it may be easier, but you may need to loop over your records and draw each record to PDF.
