Thanks bsampieri,
Thanks a lot for your reply......but it says that the requested resource is not available...
here i am sending you the code:
try{
Document document = new Document();
// step 2:
// we create a writer that listens to the document
// and directs a RTF-stream to a file
RtfWriter rtf = RtfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("/try4.rtf"));
     rtf.setHasTitlePage(true);
     RtfHeaderFooters header = new RtfHeaderFooters();
     header.set(RtfHeaderFooters.FIRST_PAGE, new HeaderFooter(new Phrase("UNSODA DATABASE"), true));
document.open();
document.setHeader(header);
document.add(new Paragraph(" UNSODA DATABASE", new Font(Font.HELVETICA, 20, Font.BOLD)));
document.close();
} catch(Exception e){
out.print("erwerweror"+e.toString());}
%>
//and then in button or for calling report
<tr><td bgcolor="#CCCCFF">
<input type='button' name="Report" onClick= "<%= theFileURL%>" value="Add New Record"></td></tr>
but it gave me this error:
The requested resource (/try4.rtf) is not available.
Thank you....so much
