I had a problem with creating pdf using the option pdf as well. It would
create the pdf but the file size would be 0K. Obviously, it will not open.
 
They just did an update that you can download that is newer (5/14/2010). It
seems to work now for me.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - PDF file issue



Moved from v8 to v9. Everything seems to be going OK until reports are run.
In v8 all reports create a PDF file, places the file in a directory, pulls
the file into the PDF viewer for the user to verify and print, puts the PDF
file name and file info in a table for easy copy/retrieval with a DB Grid
based on an ID #. It has worked every time with hundreds of files in v8. In
v9 everything starts well but immediately after creating the PDF file, there
is a long string of error message just like this: 

 

SET ERROR MESSAGES OFF

SET ERROR MESSAGES ON

SET ERROR MESSAGES OFF

SET ERROR MESSAGES ON

SET ERROR MESSAGES OFF

SET ERROR MESSAGES ON

 

This goes on for 100+ lines then the process seems to fall out of order and
a damaged PDF is created that does not load. I replaced the the EEP with the
same one from v8 with no success, reloaded, rebuilt, autochked, and every
other check I can think off. Is there a special change in how PDFs are
created in v9 that is not obvious? Reading the PDF docs don't seem to point
to any new issues unless my eyes are glazing over them. I can pull up
exiting PDFs in v9 easily.  There is nothing I can see that causes these
error messages lines. The version in v8 just chuggs along.
