Par2: Create a PDF in Clarion
2000-07-20 -- Bob Campbell
 
You don't need a template (per se). Just print to the PDF Writer print driver. You can use the Property syntax as follows after the report is opened. SETTARGET(Report) Report{Prop:Text} = 'MyReport' SETTARGET() As you probably know, there are 4 descriptors inside a PDF document under "Document Information" general properties: Title Subject Author Keywords These can be filled in using a batch process and an Acrobat add-on tool such as Ambia's Compose tool. Go to https://secure.infodata.com/techFrame.htm for more information. You can also put in bookmarks and links automatically, using Compose, if you design your reports with different fonts. When I print reports (for archiving), I create a record in a TPS file that stores the four fields for each report, and then I run a batch program to fill in the Document Information on the reports.
