Hi ,

There are two ways you can do this.

1. Using Interactive PDF's.

You just have to create a Webdypro node which has all the data that you need to save in the PDF.

After that just use the InteractiveForm UI element to create a Print Form.Bind the WebDynpro node to the data source property of the InteractiveForm (Make sure you use the Generate PDF mode).

The above method needs you to Configure Adobe Document Services(ADS).

If you want to avoid using ADS:

2. You can generate an xml representation of the data you need(Much like the Print Utility). Use the "resource" object as shown below :

IWDResource l_resource = WDResourceFactory.createCachedResource
							(<xml format byte array>,<String>,WDWebResourceType.PDF);
