Hello,

I am looking at a better way to create PDF documents from my application. I am using a third party tool to create the PDF via WaitRun/Command line method. This process seems to take longer depending on the size of the input file I create.

Can we create PDFs directly from from FWH 0811 that allows me to draw lines and include images?

Thank you,

Hello,
have a look at FASTREPORT.

Code: Select all

//here you can use export
      oFr:SetProperty("PDFExport", "FileName", ".\Myfile.pdf")
      oFr:SetProperty("PDFExport", "UserPassword", "PW…" ) 
      oFr:SetProperty("PDFExport", "OwnerPassword", "PW…" )
      oFr:SetProperty("PDFExport", "OpenAfterExport", .f.)
      oFr:SetProperty("PDFExport", "UserPassword", "test")
      oFr:SetProperty("PDFExport", "ShowDialog",.f.)
      oFr:PrepareReport()
      oFr:DoExport("PDFExport")
 

Best regards,
Otto

The newer versions of FWH have the export to PDF or to Word built into rpreview.prg and Prev32.dll.

If you can afford to upgrade .. That is a good reason.

Thanks Otto and Rick.

I need to upgrade FWH, however I need to create PDFs without preview interface as PDF need to be created automatically via an automated process.

Thanks Again!
