How to convert HTML output developed using wbedynpro java to pdf output automatically after clicking some button which should be useful to save the file locally.
I would recommend using the iText java library. The current version 5.0.6 is completely revamped in order to overcome the flaky rendering behavior of its predecessors.
I have webdynpro application which displays output in html form.Understood to use jar file and need to use itext apis to generate pdf output.
I want to create a button in the webdynpro application output/view which should trigger action to use itext jar to generate pdf form of view automatically.
Do I need to create new java application to use itext jar file or can i use itext apis directly in the same webdynpro application strcuture.?
Created External library using itext jar file and added parts also.In my webdynpo project, added these public parts as used DCs.
I searched forums and find few snippets to generate pdf byextracting data from context nodes. But I want to generate pdf with same content and layout as view automatically . Any code snippets available to achieve this ?
Created a button "Saveaspdf" and assigned action to it.Now I am looking a way for code snippet to call complete layout (view) and generate/convert it into pdf which should allow me to save locally.
I'm not sure if this is possible, but I would suggest to somehow capture the HttpServletResponse of the rendered Web Dynpro view and use it as an inputstream for PDF generation
