Default Create PDF on the fly. - 10-02-2006 , 07:06 PM






I have the need to create a PDF in ASP on the fly.

As a student logs in and click on a button, I would like to create a locked
PDF on the fly for the student.

The data will be from the student info, class taken etc.

The problem is creating the PDF on the fly for download or open.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Bob Leffew

What system architecture you are working with? I know it works rather seamlessly on system architecture of Mac OS X, where there is built-in PDF technology is included.

And in addition to the architecture question, do you have the capability to install an application on your server?

Hi

If your server has ColdFusion access you can create PDF on the fly using
cfdocument.

<cfdocument format="PDF">
<p>This will be a pdf document</p>
</cfdocument>

You're welcome. There hasn't been much development on it for the last
three years, but it still works great.
