[cfaussie] Re: PDF Generation
We do it all using cfdocument to create the PDF. Took a bit of stuffing around to make it sharp but we did do it. You can control the scaling that occurs in the PDF conversion and by choosing the right fonts then it comes out pretty good. Let me know if you want any more info. Simon 2008/11/26 Steve Onnis [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a job where i need to populate some pdfs with data which is fine, i can do that by injecting some fields with the information but i need to insert some graphs and this is where i am hitting a wall. In the past when i have wanted to do this i would have an image and insert it like that but the quality isnt the best. The PDF is a financial report and it needs to be pretty sharp. Any suggestions on how i might be able to achive this? So far i am looking at some way to create an inDesign file which can import data and export the pdf from that.

[cfaussie] PDF Generation
Hi, I think Crystal reports is a powerful tool without any real competitors. It works great on stored proc, views and linked table.. and I don't know how people really develop 'reports' without it.. I think we have over 300 or so on the application I work on.. we just found the set-up rather difficult and finnicky.. we have a reached a stage where it just works, but I am not game to touch it... we used to use the ActiveX report viewer but ran into problems about 4 years ago when IE started being locked down and computer policy type access stopped the control being installed unless an administrative account is used.. we now export reports to pdf and stream them to the browser via some voodoo I don't understand.. we probably do it a very strange out dated way I have to admit.. I would love to see how yo go about calling reports... cheers, CyberAngel [EMAIL PROTECTED] 27/11/2008 1:14 pm Nope easy to setup too...
