Printing and downloading report via BUTTONs

Hi,
I want to be able to allow my users to download a report in PDF format using a button... or... be able to print the report using another button... I know these are built in features in interactive report but want to do the same using a button...
please advice how to do it...
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Interactive report uses the page request to download report, for example if your page request if CSV it will download report as CSV file, if its PDF it will download as PDF file.
1. Click on create button, select a region and click next
2. Accept default and click next
3. Enter the name of the button, select button type and in the action select "Redirect to URL without submitting page " then click next
4. Accept default and click next
5. Select display position (usually I pick right of interactive report search bar) and click next
6. Select target as Page in this application (default selected)
7. Enter "&APP_PAGE_ID." in the page text box , in the Request use CSV for csv download, PDF for pdf download.
8. Click on create buttonRun the page and you should able to download the IR report using button. Thanks.

Need to add print and download options for report in new window

Hi,
On one of the columns empid of the report1 (which is on the dashboard) , I am using navigation and pointing it to report2.
Report1 has all the links, print, download and refresh (I enabled them using the section properties) but when I click on empid and it takes me to report2, then I don't see any links under that report. I want to include print and download links for report2 when it opens in the new window.
I know, one way is to embedd that report in the dashboard page and hide it, but is there any other way of doing it?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ronny

Just to clarify again, I am using a navigation from report1 (which is on the dashboard) to report2 (which is not on the dashboard).
As per the requirements, I can't put my report2 on any dashboard page and hide it and then use navigation. Also, I can't enable the print and download options for report1 which is already on the dashboard. Doing this gives me print and download options for report2 but that is not the requirement.
Is there any way to have print and download options for report2 when I am directly navigating to the report2 from report1 and not the report2 on any dashboard page which is hidden.
I will really appreciate any help on this.
Thanks,
RonnyPlease explain why you can't do what I said. What is the "requirements" that prevent this? It would be transparent to the user, really. They just click and get their report.

How to disable print and download button of pdf file when i am opening mozila firefox using java script

i am opening pdf file in firefox browser in right side i am seeing print and download option
i want to disable it by program like javascript, by manualy i can disable it ,
actually i am opening pdf file in my website by using firefox browser so i do not want to any can download or print the pdf file

If it's that critical, you could explore this partial workaround:
Use a script or configuration file on your server that changes the disposition based on the user agent. In other words, for Firefox, send an attachment disposition that forces a download outside the browser instead of the default (inline) disposition that allows Firefox to display the PDF in a tab.
Now... that won't stop the user from dragging and dropping the downloaded file on a Firefox tab to use the built-in PDF viewer, but most users would tend to open the file in their default viewer (e.g., stand-alone Adobe Reader).

Printing to specific printer and displaying report

Hi,
In Forms 10g via AS10g, I need to generate a report and print the output to a specific printer. How do I do this given that the AS Linus box cannot be mapped to various printers. The printer is also not necessarily the Client machine's default printer.
I suspect that the answer lies in using web.show_document with a html or javascript included in the url extension that directs the report to a printer. I have not been able to find out how, yet.
I would appreciate your answers
Thanks
Gnana

Hi Frank,
thank you for coming to my aid. Could you please post some code example of the html and also what do you mean by the report link and again some code will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks mate

Installing network printer and downloaded print drivers aren't recognized.

I downloaded drivers for the Canon ImagePRESS C1 and they seem to install just fine. However, when I install the network printer the driver is not listed anywhere. Even when I choose "Other" and point to the device folder the files are greyed out, and I can't select the driver. I've tried updates and resetting the print system an still no success. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
drh08

There are three printer options (at least here in Oz there is) available for the imagePRESS C1. There is the internal Canon printer board and two external print controllers - the imagePASS-T1 and the imagePRESS-Q1, which is what we have connected to our C1. Each of these print controllers have different drivers so you need to determine which one you have first. If you are not sure, then check with someone or have a look at the C1. If it has a white metal box hanging on the back of the copier with some network cables, then you have the T1. If there is a PC case connected to the copier then you have the Q1. If the network cable connects from the wall straight to a network card on the back left side of the machine, then you have the internal Canon board.
For the two imagePASS controllers, you can download the driver from the print controller, by opening its internal web page (type the copiers IP address into your web browser to access). These queues for these drivers are added via IP > HP Jetdirect-Socket and you should find the driver by searching for either T1 or C1 in the Print using menu.
If you have the Canon board, then how you create the printer queue depends on which driver you have downloaded. Could you tell me the driver name and version so I can explain the method of adding the printer queue.

ORA-06502 when downloading report via BI Publisher

I'm getting this error when trying to export an interactive or standard report using the BI Publisher report server. It doesn't happen on all reports, but I'm not sure what could be causing the error. The result is an excel file with the message:
<pre>report error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small</pre>
The standard report has 45 columns and 755 rows. There aren't any errors on the UI when the report is generated.
Has anyone had this problem or know what to do to fix it? I can't recreate the interactive report region on the same page because there are hundreds of saved reports that I can't delete.
APEX 4.1.1.00.23
Oracle 11g 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
Thanks!
Jonathan Hart

After reading through the trace file from the report generation it looks like the error is caused from binding the sql query to some query or data type within the APEX engine. I double-checked the length of the query and it is longer than 4000 characters. I'm sure some of the interactive report queries are also longer than 4000 with all the filters added in.
Is there anyway to fix this?

Which is your favorite sharpen skill for image to print and to upload via web

Hi
which is your favorite sharpen skill for photo ?
which skill do you use for a print or upload via web like flirck ,one exposure
i like a lot this skill http://www.photoshopsupport.com/tutorials/sharpen-an-image/photo-sharpening.html
i know what would you think ... every image has a sharpen skill
but i would like to know your favorite or more used for print or web upload
thanks
cheers

Personally I'm fond of working at an upsampled resolution then sharpening near the end of my workflow, then downsampling for use as a work product.
Example: Work at double (or more) the pixel count you'll need for web publishing, sharpen fairly aggressively, then downsample. That tends to get you highly detailed looking results that are cleaner of sharpening artifacts.
As far as just sharpening things, I invented my own set of actions that employ fractals...

Disabling reports printing and generating to a file

Can any one help me, i want a database function which disable printing and generating reports to a file where:
- i have so many reports, so i do not want to put the function inside each report source
- the printing or generating conditions varies from a user to another (authority rules)
- i have 8i database

first of all, i would like to thank you for your cooperation
i will make it clear, answering your questions:
- my reports version is 6i
- we are using an ERP calling the standard (system built in) reports and the customized also from a form (so i do not have the system built in reports source (which are so many))
- i only want the users review the reports on the screen only without printing or generating to a file (data security matter) so i want to enable these functions due to rules
- i want it as a database function because of the previous information

Pdf error in printing in WEB UI via transaction launcher

Hi Experts,
We have created a custom report program in CRM 2007. We are launching it from WEB UI via transaction launcher. When we try to print the report output, it displays the standard print dialog box. The moment we select output device = LOCL for local printer and click on Continue button,it launches two new windows:-
a) One window is for WEB UI with message-The formatted data will be displayed in this window; wait and do not close the window
b) Second window is ADOBE PDF window with information message-Adobe Reader could not open 'frontend_print[1].pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged.
In the end, user is not able to print the report. Now my doubts are:-
What is the link between print button and pdf? Why is it going to ADOBE? Something to do with WEB UI? If we launch SAP GUI, go to SE38 and execute the report program, we are able to print the output successfully.
Please give me some pointers to proceed forward.
Thanks
Rohit
