How to export the Apex web page to PDF with click of a button?

How to export the Apex web page to PDF with click of a button?
Am looking at exporting the Form view on APEX to be exported to PDF.

In order to get a PDF, you need to generate a Report....in PDF format.
If you are using the APEX Listener, you can initiate the download of the PDF by calling APEX_UTILS.download_print_document()  (I normally place this in a Process)
BUT -- You have to create the Report (under Shared Components) and a Template (also under Shared Components).
The white paper in my first post gives you the HOWTO "[Create] Custom PDF Reports with Oracle Application Express and the APEX Listener".
Start by creating a Report (in Shared Components, bottom right) that uses a simple SQL statement like:
Select * from emp where empno = :P15_EMPNO
You may need to hard code the parameter before you hit "Download XML" button.
The XML that you get from clicking "Download XML" satisfies the "Step 1 - Create an XML Data Source" found on Page 11 of the document.
The rest of the instructions is in that whitepaper.

  • How do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    how do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    What that button does is sync your tabs between your devices. So if you have multiple macs with Mountain Lion and/or devices with iOS 6 (once it comes out this fall) you can pick up where you left off. For example, let's say I have apple.com, nytimes.com, and facebook.com open on my mac, but I need to run. Later, if I need to use another computer in my household, I can just restore the tabs that I was using before on this other mac.

  • How to limit the number of pages a PDF can print?

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to lime the number of pages a PDF can print? For example, if a PDF has 100 pages, it only allow the user to print no more than 100 pages.
    Any software can achieve this ?

    But once I purchased a ebook, which required be opened with Adobe digital edition, the ebook only allow to print 57 pages out of 300+ pages total. 
    Are there any way to convert a PDF to a ebook and encrypted by the printing limits?

  • How to redirect the first web page?

    Hey everyone. Does anyone know how to set up a firewall or router so that when an IP is first assigned, the very first web page that they pull up (port 80 request) is automatically redirected to a web page. But only on the first web page, so that they can go ahead and surf other subsequent pages after they view the splash screen.

    Actually, what I mean is similar to when you log into your hotel's Wifi. Whenever you open up a browser, you get redirected to some splash page where you have to accept some terms and conditions. I have a Linksys 3G CDMA router and I want it to put up a splash page whenever someone first logs in and opens up a browser.

  • How do I import a web page as PDF? The import feature in my file dropdown menu doesn't seem to be working.

    If I remember correctly, firefox for linux previously had an option to import a web page as PDF. Now it doesn't seem to be working that way anymore. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx with the most recent Firefox program.

    That's just the standard notice when you install an addon from the AMO web site.
    Wasn't the '''Install Now''' button active?
    Sometimes you have to wait for up to 4 seconds for that button to be active - IOW, not greyed-out.

  • Firefox 13, and Acrobat X pro; I want the "convert web page to pdf" buttons I use in IE.

    I'm running Firefox 13.0, and I have Acrobat X pro, all running in Win 7 64 bit. 
    How can I add to Firefox (AND to Chrome), the buttons I use in Internet Explorer that enable me to "convert web page to pdf", etc.?
    Do I need to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat X pro? 
    I tried that once, and it did not add the Acrobat toolbar to this (latest) version of Firefox.
    Is it possible to add the Acrobat toolbar buttons "convert web page to pdf", etc. to Chrome?  If so, how can I do it?
    Thanks,
                            Marc

    The supported browsers are found at http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html. So, have you updated Acrobat or are you still sitting with AA10.0? Generally you do not need to reinstall Acrobat in such cases, but the updates and possibly repairs may be needed (not a reinstall).

  • Line spacing (leading) when converting web page to PDF with Acrobat Pro 8.1.2

    I recently upgraded from Acrobat Pro version 7.0.9 to version 8.1.2 (Windows XP Pro). In many cases, when I "Convert current web page to an Adobe PDF file" using the Adobe PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer, the spacing between lines is much larger with version 8 than it was with version 7. Has anyone else observed this? Is there any way to control leading?

    Is there a way to export files created for photos? I seem to have no problem exporting photos but the information I have about them cannot be found in teh exported version.

    Hi... had to put this up for a while as I got busy in my day job. Here's where i'm at
    I can successfully generate a PDF file but it's blank. The other two problems I'm having is that I'd like to name the file with the current date. I can call up the current date using that tool but i can't figure out how to make it the file name whether i print to pdf or use the tool.

  • Convert Web Page to PDF

    We have an internal web based system in which we would like to 'print' one of the screens as a report.  However, when we use the Convert Web Page to PDF option, the resulting PDF doesn't look anything close to the web page.  We are wanting to use the Convert Web Page option so the links to the images remain and can be clicked on and viewed from our internal servers.
    Resulting PDF
    Original Web Page we are attempting to convert:
    As you can see, the two do not resemble each other very much.  The image thumbnails on the PDF screen are located at the bottom of the web page we are converting.
    We are receiving the same results on two different computers running two different OS (Windows XP and Windows 7) with two different versions of Acrobat (Acrobat 6 Professional and Acrobat 8 Professional).
    Does anyone have any suggestions?  The Convert Web Page option also doesn't work well on eBay Order screen either.  I stopped using it years ago but a coworker would really like to be able to share our QC Inspection Reports with other people in the company easily.
    Any help and suggestions would be apprecitated.

    Bill,
    Thanks again for the reply.  I am using the Convert Web Page to PDF selection on the Adobe toolbar which is available in IE.  I printed the page from File >> Print and it looks good except no links.  It is also printed in a Portrait style page layout.
    Sample:
    When I used the Convert Web Page to PDF from the Adobe toolbar, it looks like it is attempting to 'print' it in a landscape mode and that may be where the problem is.
    Sample:
    These are the same report.  However, I can't find a preference to tell it to convert in a Portrait mode instead of landscape.  Any clues on how to force it to always convert Portrait?
    Thanks again,

  • Convert Web Page to PDF formatting problem - 1st line of each paragraph outdented

    Hi Folks,
    I get a formatting problem when I convert any web page to PDF using the 'Convert Web Page to PDF' option - the 1st line of each paragraph is outdented.
    eg if i convert http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/whats-new-acrobat-xi.html I get this:
    I get the same problem using IE 9, Chrome (latest) or Firefox 30.0. I don't get it converting a Word doc to PDF.
    I'm using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro on a PC running Windows 7.
    Is there a simple setting somewhere I am missing?
    Any help much appreciated!

    Are you using "Adobe PDF" or "PDF or XPS?" I sounds like "Adobe PDF," but trying to be sure. Have you updated your Acrobat to the latest version? If not, try that.
