Edited by: user9139675 on Mar 9, 2010 11:14 PM

how can i save the contents of a form as a report in pdf format by clicking on tha print button in oracle apex???You may create a report and call it in an Apex process fired by press a button.
in the process:
l_utl_http := utl_http.request(l_url);
where set l_url like:
http://167.165.243.209/dev60cgi/rwcgi60?repdevi_key&server=Rep60&report=my_rpt.rdf&DESFORMAT=PDF&DESTYPE=FILE&DESNAME=/arch/chrisweb/devi/cache/my_rpt.PDF&BACKGROUND=YES&P_1=PC00980
The generated pdf report my_rpt.PDF is kept at /arch/chrisweb/devi/cache/

Print PLSQL Dynamic content region in PDF format in Oracle Apex

Hi All,
I have created a report region by selecting "PLSQL Dynamic Content".This region calls the procedure with some parameters.So i want this plsql dynamic content to be in PDF format.
For an easy understanding, I have created an application in Apex.Oracle.Com where i have created a Plsql Dynamic content which calls procedure do display in region.
Step 1: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=4550:1:15635986742760:::::
Step 2: Workspace : dev_dilip
Username: [email protected]
Pwd : 123456
Step 3: Open PRINT_PDF application and Run the application.
Step 4: Username: [email protected]
Pwd : 123456
The procedure code can be viewed by object browser.
Once user cliks PDF (button inapplication) a new tab should open and that plsql region should in PDF format.
I kindly request all to check and advice me with your valuable suggestion.
regards,
Doddi Dilip.

SO, you want to print the output of the procedure in pdf format? If so, you can try apex Report Query feature. You can find a number of examples for the same in this forum and in the internet:
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/hol08/apexprnt/apexprnt_otn.htm
Or, have a IR based on a collection; the collection based on a function returning query. And then, use the IR's generic download option to print reports.

Please advise?
Thanks

Hi,
Perhaps it is not clear about what are the invalid characters its is showing.....is it showing asterisks.....Well if it does show anything like that then all u have to do is go and change the dimensions of the particular field in which it is showing such characters.......i mean u r to change the rdf file in Reports Builder.....and try changing the length and width by dragging the edges of the particular field and then save it and after that convert it into .xml and .rep files and then run it.

Report in PDF format and email it to some clients, using Database Trigger

Hi
Is it possible to run a report in PDF format ad email it to some clients after a specific event through Database Trigger. For example whenever a client makes an entry into order entry table (through entry form), a trigger should execute on Orders table, this trigger should execute or generate a PDF formatted report and finally mail it to Sales team?

Hi ,
One 'simple' way is by using the DBMS_SCHEDULER db package and the procedure CREATE_JOB(....) using as job_type the value 'EXECUTABLE'...
Read for further info in 'PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference'.
If you have access to OEM ... you can configure this there using wizard.....
Other way is to use the External Procedure call capabiblity of Oracle DB Server...:

Hi,
There is an enhancement request at user group review to create FSG's in PDF format. However, I transformed the FSG output by using ascii2pdf shareware software (do a search on google.) I created a shell script that did the transformation and emailed the report from Oracle Apps. It seems to work ok.

Error 500 Internal Server Error" When Generating Hyperion Financial Reports in PDF Format

We are unable to open pdf reports in Workspace with the following error. It was all working fine and doesn't work now for unknown reasons.
Error 500 Internal Server Error" When Generating Hyperion Financial Reports in PDF Format
We are on 11.1.2.1 environment. Ghost Script 8.54 and Java heap settings xms256m and xmx512m.
Please advice.

hello,
just to clarify
a) the parameter is named DESFORMAT not :DESFORMAT, there is
no : in front of the name, if you submit it via URL !
b) there are some issues with acrobat5 and IE but those are not
only caused by PDFs generated with oracle reports.

Emailing a report in pdf format.

Hi ,
I have a requirement of monthly getting a report in pdf format and mailing it as an attachment.
Please tell me if this is possible on apex.
thanks,

It's possible.. Now, can you change you name in the forum so we know who were are talking to, we are a friendly group here, and normally don't bite..If you have BI Publisher available, you can build a report in it,m and have it scheduled to send reports .. Or you can look at this thread Re: send .pdf-file from report query in an email which talks about running the report to the server using an APEX api and then sending the resulting pdf via a dbms_job you setup..
Thank you,

Save the report in PDF format on the server: is it possible?

Hi all,
Is it possible to save the report in PDF format on the server?
In other words, in a web application:
1) the user requests a report
2) the report produced in PDF format, is saved on the server, where is the Java Reporting Component
3) the report, in PDF format, is sent to the client's user
Thanks a lot

PrintOutputController.export, get the byte stream, save on server.

Hello Andrea.
I searched through the SAP Notes for the error that you are encountering. There is an SAP Note that exists titled the following:
1332907 - Report being exported to PDF format using the Crystal Reports for Eclipse 1.x runtime, errors with the exception: PdfExporter: caught Exception in PDFFormatter.finalizeFormatJob
Since you may not have access to the SAP Notes, I will extract the details that are mentioned in the note here:
=============================================
Symptom
Attempting to export a report to Adobe PDF format using the Crystal Reports for Eclipse 1.x runtime results in an exception.
The exception indicates "PdfExporter: caught Exception in PDFFormatter.finalizeFormatJob"
Environment
Windows 2003
Apache Tomcat 5.0
Crystal Reports for Eclipse version 1.x
Reproducing the Issue
Using the Crystal Reports for Eclipse runtime version 1.x attempt to export a report to PDF format that has the "Repeat Group Header on Each Page" option enabled.
Note: This does not occur if this option is enabled in a subreport.
Cause
When the "Repeat Group Header on Each Page" is enabled for a group in a main report the Crystal Reports for Eclipse 1.x runtime is unable to correclty format the PDF document which results in an exception.
Resolution
Updating the application to use Crystal Reports for Eclipse version 2.x runtime will resolve the issue.
The most recent updates to the Crystal Reports for Eclipse runtime can be freely downloaded from the SAP SDN Website.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/crystalreports-java
=============================================
Since you are on JRC 11.8.4.1094 which is Crystal Reports for Eclipse 1.x, this may be the cause of your problem.
I hope that this helps.
Regards.

Getting a report in excel format from oracle report builder 10gDS release2

I want to get a report in excel format from oracle report builder 10gDS release2.
Is there ne method by which minimum effort is required for changing already made reports .
I have searched for it on internet :-
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/state/content/navId.3/navSetId._/vtTopicFile.htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs%7Crwwhthow%7Cwhatare%7Coutput%7Coutput_a_simpleexcel~htm/
Example, given in the last of the page opened from the above url, is not working.
Can neone plz explain the example and how to use it
Thanks & Regards
JD

Ok, for the release 2 its quite straightfoward, in your calling form you would have something like this code:
declare
     pl_id ParamList;
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
v_rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
v_repsrv     VARCHAR2(100):= 'yourreportserver';
v_serv varchar2(50) := 'yourservername' ;
begin
pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
if not id_null(pl_id) then
Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
end if;
pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'DESTYPE' ,TEXT_PARAMETER,'Screen' );
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAMFORM' ,TEXT_PARAMETER,'NO' );
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('yourreport');     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,RUNTIME);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER, v_repsrv);
set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE );
set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'SPREADSHEET' );
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid,pl_id);
v_rep := substr(v_rep,length(v_repsrv)+2,10 ) ;
end;
I have plenty of reports being formated to excel with this same method so it should work for you, the only diference with my previous code is this line.
set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'SPREADSHEET' );
The rest remains untouched.
Hope it helps.
