Caspio Form To Pdf Print Or Download

[Elena]

Hello everyone, 

 

Do you guys know of a work-around, a script perhaps that will convert Caspio report  into a pdf and then auto send as an attachment by email through Caspio?

 

Also is there a way to show a print icon, both an icon of a printer and an icon of pdf at the top of report form?

 

I will  appreciate any and all assistance.

 

Elena

Hello Elena,

 

I have seen that there is the PDF Reports extension.

Maybe it can help you.

Hi Ninja,

 

Thanks for the tip. I may need to go that route, i.e. ask for a special project fulfilment. Just hope it's not an arm and a leg.

 

Thanks again.

This PDF print works but prints the complete page and not just the report

Hello Everyone,

Just found out that the Documentation Generation is only available to new accounts. If it is not included in your account even though you are a grow or corporate account, you may reach out to your customer success manager directly.
