PDF Reports in client machines

Dear all,
What are all the chances that a PDF report is not getting opened at the client machine.. all the user can able to print the same in their pc's .. in particular 2 clilent machines no PDF reports are opening..
Thanks
Yusuf

When View output is clicked, it opens the windows and closes immediatelyMost probably it is a pop-up blocker issue. Please verify that it is turned off (IE, MSN, Yahoo, Google, AOL, ..etc), and check then.
To verify, change the report type to PostScript, and check if you have the same issue with GhostViewer.

Saving PDF report on Client machine

Dear All,
I have one form where the user can select the path he want to save PDF report (generated by Report Bulder) to (I am using Webutil). I set that path as DESFORMAT before calling the repot but when the report is run, it is saved on server (Application server) if the same path exists on server (e.g; c:\temp), otherwise it gives error.
How i can do this?
Regards

Hello,
I would guess that all the pdf files you are generating in AS in c:\temp directory. Otherwise if files are in c:\temp\data then you will have to change in the webutil.cfg file. So, according to your webutil.cfg file the function call can be like this..
lResult := WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.AS_TO_CLIENT_WITH_PROGRESS
               ('C:\TEMP\ABC.TXT',
                'C:\TEMP\ABC.TXT',
                'TITLE',
                'PLEASE WAIT...');Or otherwise if the files are in C:\TEMP\DATA then change the config setting to the below and try the function as below...
transfer.database.enabled=TRUE
transfer.appsrv.enabled=TRUE
transfer.appsrv.workAreaRoot=
transfer.appsrv.accessControl=TRUE
transfer.appsrv.read.1=c:\temp\data
transfer.appsrv.write.1=c:\temp\dataAnd function like this...
lResult := WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.AS_TO_CLIENT_WITH_PROGRESS
               ('C:\TEMP\data'ABC.TXT',
                'C:\TEMP\ABC.TXT',
                'TITLE',
                'PLEASE WAIT...');Make sure that file is readable on the AS and the directory C:\TEMP is available on the client side.
Using example you can find in webutil demo. Check the below link.

Running Reports from Client Machines in which the reports are residing on t

Hi Folks,
I'm using Developer 6i with Oracle 9i. I can run forms from the clients so that the FMX file is residing on a shared drive on the server, but when I try to run reports which also reside on the shared drive of server, I get error that unable to find the report. Do I need to install report server on the client machine/server or am I missing some basic step here?
TIA
Hassan

Hi,
There's a whitepaper on the topic of Forms/Reports integration for the web called "Oracle9iAS Forms Services and Reports Services Integration". This should give you the information you are seeking.

How to send the content of an agent (PDF Report) to local machine in 11g

Hi all,
I want to export my reports (PDF format) from an agent on a local disk.
Through an action such as javascript. After more research I do not find a solution.
Someone should track it on the subject?
Best regards,
Ben

Of course !
This is the javascript :
**var fso=new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");**
**var maintenant=new Date();**
**var jour=maintenant.getDate();**
**var mois=maintenant.getMonth()+1;**
**var an=maintenant.getFullYear();**
**var MaDate = jour + " " + mois + " " + an;**
**var fileName = ['E:\\Extranet\\Reports\\'] + MaDate + " " + Parameter(1) + ['.xls'];**
**var fooFile = fso.CopyFile(Parameter(0), fileName, true);**
(NB : the var MaDate is just for me to specify the date in the filename)
You must also create an action to invoke the javascript. Follow the link to see an example http://hpics.li/7cf7d3e

BI publisher report cannot export to PDF on client machine

Hello,
I have created a report in BI Publisher and it exports perfectly to PDF and other formats on our machine. However when I download the files and send it to the client they are unable to export the report to any of the formats. I have not been able to reproduce the issue and hence becoming difficult to identify where the problem might be. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
DRL

sorry i misunderstood you
Once the client upload the files they can view the report in interactive format but not in PDF or any other format.
ok step by step
Once the client upload the files
yes. as result client have file in pdf format on local machine
they can view the report in interactive format
interactive format ? sorry i don't know about it
but not in PDF
if client has pdf report why client can't view it as pdf ? may be client hasn't any pdf viewer ?
or any other format.
from pdf?
in general what are you talking about?
about BIP Server or may be OBIEE
how your question relate to BIP ?

Generate barcode on paper layout PDF report - using IDAutomation

Hello,
Although i have asked in other threads, i please you to help me regarding this matter:
- i am generating PDF paper report (invoices to my clients).
- i need to print the barcodes on the invoices.
- i have used barcode fonts (i need 128 barcode font) and distributed the PDFs but the clients' machines do not read the barcodes properly when opening the PDF (just numbers, instead of the font).
- i have then edited the config files, so the barcode fonts to be embedded in the PDF (included in the registry path) but still when distributing the PDFs, the barcode is not displayed on regular machines, that do not have the barcode font installed.
The question is:
I am willing to purchase from IDAutomation their 128 barcode fonts. What to purchase?
- just the barcode fonts, and then i will be able in the end to embed the font in the PDF?
- or the barcode fonts with their PL/SQL package that will automatically embed the fonts in PDF?
Thank you so much,
Michael

If your machine can open the PDF barcode but your clients' can't, I'd first figure out the PDF stuff. Such as update clients' pdf software etc.
Think pdf barcode reports can be opened without the font installed. Though Reports Builder or Server needs the font installed to run/generate the report.

Store reports in client m/c using destype=localFile in rwservlet

Hi,
i am trying to store the reports in client machine using rwservlet(http://<<report server name>>:7777/reports/rwservlet). i gave the destype as localFile. but in screen displays a msg : "Oracle Job Status" as some number. i cannot able to trace what is the reason for this problem. If any one knows to generate reports and store that in client side using rwservlet, let me know. i badly require solution for this. Thanks in advance.
regards,
srini

Hi,
The job status is to indicate the process of the job, it was run ok you can go to the location specified in the URL to look for the report. I assume that you also have a report's name in the URL too.
The problrm is it cannot save to the local machine. IF you specified a location that is not on the server then you would have gotten an error saying that the device is not ready, cannot send output... If you specified a drive that is similar to the server then the output went to the server, for example, you put c:\ then the report went to C:\ on the server, or if you put c:\mydir but that directory does not exist on the server then you would have gotten the error.
All above applies to running the report outside the form and in the 9i environment, using the browser and providing the URL. Now, in the URL, for IE only, if you don't add &desname=.... part then YOU WILL GET THE SAVE AS DIALOG then you CAN SAVE to the local machine. The problem is if you save it as a PDF file then you won't be able to open it (you will see an error), somehow it did not close the file at the end of the save properly; if you save it as a RTF file then you can open it with any text editor just that the layout is messed up.
Now, if calling from the form the report will go the location on the server as before, but it also brings up on the screen and you can save it locally using the SAVE button of the editor.
Below is my url when running from browser:
http://igoracledba:7777/reports/rwservlet?report=f:\9ifiles\sirc_case_report.rep&userid=hotline/hotline@desgnr9i&server=report9i&destype=localfile&desformat=pdf&desname=c:\myreport.pdf -- will save to c:\ on server (this is also used in the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT in the form).
http://igoracledba:8888/reports/rwservlet?report=f:\9ifiles\sirc_case_report.rep&userid=hotline/hotline@desgnr9i&server=report9i&destype=localfile&desformat=pdf -- will get the Save dialog
And that's what I 've been getting my project during the testing of the 9iDS suites.
Good luck.
