Can LC build a PDF with distint fields like: Staff duty form

Post by liveme » Sat Aug 29, 2015 4:31 am

Hi,
so far I have not seen any pdf produced by LC but one looking like a 1 text blocon a simple page... :(
Can one build a more sofisticated Pdf report, like a Tax form or an Organigram,etc ?
:roll:

I'm editing this to add a sample, of what i d be looking for.
Of course, I woudl make a similar form on a card...I don t know if I could get a look alike PDF doc ?i.e. a Staff duty

Hi liveme,

since creating of PDf in Licvecode "simply" means to print a card or stack into a PDF file,
I am not sure, what your problem is?

Create and lay out a card as needed and print it to a PDF file! :D


Best

Tks Klaus,

I ll keep on trying.
The sample lesson did not work for me...
so I wasnt sure how much LC would allow me
*brower unidentified prob.

Glad to hear its possible to get a PDF form after creating+printing coding..
Based on your reply, I ll try again with some other code sample I can find arround.
Tks
:)
