From: Stavros Spanos - www.orbit.gr on 16 Nov 2009 10:07 Hi all! We are in a need to automate the creation and attachment of a PDF that comes from ReportPro3. The problem is that RP3 doesnt create PDF so we don't have a way to by pass the problem. We tried to find a way to do it in the background using an activex that could turn ReportPro's RTF to a PDF and then attach it to an email. Unfortunatelly we didn't find any... Does anybody have any experiance on this? TIA Stavros
From: Willie Moore on 16 Nov 2009 10:16 Stavros, RP3 for Vulcan (accessible form VO via COM) does support PDF export. But with RP3 for VO, you can still do the same if you have a PDF printer installed, just send it to a PDF printer and email the output.

The problem is we need to automate the email creation, so we need to automate the PDF creation... > Stavros, > > RP3 for Vulcan (accessible form VO via COM) does support PDF export.

From: Willie Moore on 16 Nov 2009 10:26 Stavros, Barbara Geller posted code quite a while ago that used Ghostscript to automate pdf creation. She uses it form a web app to produce a pdf that the client can then open. Sounds like it may work for you in automating the creation/emailing Regards, Willie "Stavros Spanos - www.orbit.gr" <ss(a)orbit.gr> wrote in message news:e9fe2a4f-aa03-4528-8526-7243068848ee(a)k4g2000yqb.googlegroups.com... > Well Willie, we know that way.
