Using Hyperlink in PDF Report

Dear all,
i have created a PDF report using report 10g. now i want to put a hyperlink on that report, and when i press the hyperlink , i want to execute one stored procedure.
how to do this?
Thanks & Regards

Omer,
In HTML you can set this with the attribute title. So in reports you can use the command
srw.set_hyperlink_attrs('title=mytitle');
I've not tested with pdf, but should work also.

Can BI Publisher comes with EBize be used to print pdf report from APEX?

Hi,
We have EBiz suit (11.5.10) with APEX 3.2. Both are working fine. I want to enable APEX to develop PDF reports. I would like to know whether I can use BI Publisher comes with EBiz to print PDF from APEX.
If yes where can I get instructions on how to setup APEX with BI Publisher with EBiz.
TIA

I'm not aware of the BIP/XMLP Web Services being available in the embedded EBS version (XML Publisher 5.6.3). But you might be able to create your own wrapper to the XMLP APIs in EBS.

Add Hyperlink in PDF report

hi All,
I would like to add hyperlinks to my pdf reports.
I have a image column in my report which is hyperlink.
Can i do that in pdf reports.
Thanks

hi
thanks for you reply.
But my problem is somewhat different.
What i meant was i have a column in the database with the image hyperlink. ie the column is something like this
http://myitem/myimage.
i want to display this hyperlink in my pdf report so that when the customer clicks on that hyperlink it displays the image.
This was my first priority.
But i am also considering what you suggested ie i display an generic image which says link to image And when the users clicks on that it displays the image of the item.
But the image is unique for that item and i have to specify the hyperlink programatically for each item on the report.
How do i specify the hyperlink for each item programaticaly.
thanks in advance

Report Navigation Using Hyperlinks to Another Report (not drill down)

I would like 2 sample reports. The first report would have a hyperlink to the second report. I want to publish these in BusinessObjects Enterprise and see this functionality using the Dhtml viewer preferably using the "my infoview".
Anyone have or know of samples for this?

Hi,
Go to report painter, in the report display you can see the output types.
choose output area as Info control, Navagation control, dril down control, detail control.
Choose HTML Templet - SAP Template
choose Classic drilldown, choose basic list drilldown
change all this parameters in the report then you will be getting drilldown fuctionality.

Using hyperlinks in Java Report Viewer

Hello,
I want to use the hyperlink function in Java Report Viewer Component.
In the Crystel Reports Developer Page Preview, I can click on a hyperlink (for example to a website), and a browser will open.
The same on the Crystal Report Viewer 2008. The same on Crystal Report Web Viewer.
But it doesn`t work with the Java Report Viewer Component. A click on the hyperlink has no action. Is there a possibility to activate this function, or is it impossible with the java report viewer component.
I use Crystal Reports XI.
Thanks in advance,
Rufushome

What's the "Java Report Viewer Component"?

PDF Report Header

Hi -
I am using the basic PDF report server (Apache-APEX listener) to print a SQL report displayed on the screen. The report comes up fine. But now I wanted to display some page header information. These page header values that needs to be displayed are from the page item value available on the page. How do I show these values in the page header i.e. how do I access the page item value in "Page Header" region of the "Print Header" tab?
Please share your expertise.
Thanks,
Seenu

I think you need to create your own custom xsl-fo layout for that. Either you do with notepad or you use a third party tool like Altova or J4L FO Designer

I found a solution to this problem. You need to 'fragment' your table the following way:
Add the existing table to the document (after, say, 50 rows)
Remove all rows from the existing table
Set skipFirstHeader() to true (or the header will repeat)
Add new rows to the table until you hit the threshhold
At the end, add the final table fragment to the documentThe issue apparently stems from memory management within i-Text and the amount of data that can be held in a stream. You can find a code example at:
http://itext.sourceforge.net/examples/com/lowagie/examples/objects/tables/pdfptable/FragmentTable.java
Happy rendering.

Urgent: Issue while displaying the PDF Reports Using XDO Common region

Hi all,
In our product code we are trying to display the PDF Reports, using the xdo common region.
Previously we were writing the pdf reports direclty onto the response direclty.
This displays the report onto the browser but if navigate throw browser back button, it doesn't displays the report as the response stream is empty while navigating through back button.
So to solve this issue, i tried to write the report using the OAHTMLWebBean and xdo common region. Here is the code:
ByteArrayOutputStream xdoOutput = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
XDOUtility.retrieveReport(xdoOutput,
parameters,
prop,
appMod
BlobDomain bxdoOutput = new BlobDomain();
bxdoOutput.setBytes(xdoOutput.toByteArray());
String redirectURL = DocumentHelper.getOutputURL(pageContext,
bxdoOutput,
"Report",
"PDF");
OAHTMLWebBean outRegion = (OAHTMLWebBean)createWebBean (pageContext, OAWebBeanConstants.HTML_WEB_BEAN, null, "IFRAME");
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("src", redirectURL);
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("width", "100%");
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("height", "100%");
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("title","Report");
outRegion.setHTMLAttributeValue("name","Report");
pageContext.getPageLayoutBean().addIndexedChild(outRegion);
This successfully displays the report in the XDO Common region. But now the issue is that there are hyperlinks in the Report displayed where from where the user can navigate to other detail pages.
When we click on these links, a new session starts in the xdo common region.
Is it possible that when the user click the links in the report displayed, instead of starting a new session in the xdo region, the detail pages is displayed with in the older session.
Regards
Sandeep

Add hyperlink in a page to direct to a .pdf report in oracle ADF jdeveloper

Hi,
I want to put a hyperlink, which will direct the user to the report. but I am getting the problem with, "where should I put the pdf file" any help please???
here is my code:
<a target="_blank" href="/faces/DocumentationKNM.pdf">Guide Book</a>
what should be the href?

Well, this obviously depends on where the pdf report is on your server and if it's accessible from the web application. For this it must be somewhere in the web root of your application. To access the report somewhere else on the server you can implement a servlet and stream the report from there.
Summary: we need to describe your use case in more detail.

How to make column headers in table in PDF report appear bold while datas in table appear regular from c# windows forms with sql server2008 using iTextSharp

Hi my name is vishal
For past 10 days i have been breaking my head on how to make column headers in table appear bold while datas in table appear regular from c# windows forms with sql server2008 using iTextSharp.

doc.SetMargins(50, 50, 50, 50);
doc.SetPageSize(new iTextSharp.text.Rectangle(iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Width, iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Height));
doc.Open();
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(6);
table.TotalWidth =530f;

else if (MessageBox.Show("Do you want to save changes to AssignedDialyzer.pdf before closing?", "DRRS", MessageBoxButtons.YesNoCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation) == DialogResult.No)
this.Close();
The above code executes well with no problem at all!
As you can see the file to which i create and save and open my pdf report is
AssignedDialyzer.pdf.
The column headers of table in pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp are
"Reprocessing Date","Patient Name","Dialyzer(Manufacturer,Size)","No.of Reuse","Verification" and
"DialyzerID".
However the problem i am facing is after execution and opening of document is my
column headers in table in pdf report from
c# and datas in it all appear in bold.
I have browsed through net regarding to solve this problem but with no success.
What i want is my pdf report from c# should be similar to following format which i was able to accomplish in vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp.:
Given below is report which i have achieved from vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp
I know that there has to be another way to solve my problem.I have browsed many articles in net regarding exporting sql datas to above format but with no success!
Is there is any another way to solve to my problem on exporting sql datas from c# windows forms using iTextSharp to above format given in the picture/image above?!
If so Then Can anyone tell me what modifications must i do in my c# code given above so that my pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp will look similar to image/picture(pdf report) which i was able to accomplish from
vb6,adodb with ms access using iTextSharp?
I have approached Sound Forge.Net for help but with no success.
I hope anyone/someone truly understands what i am trying to ask!
I know i have to do lot of modifications in my c# code to achieve this level of perfection but i dont know how to do it.
Can anyone help me please! Any help/guidance in solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.
I hope i get a reply in terms of solving this problem.

Control the page height and page width of pdf report using pasta_pdf.cfg

Hi All,
I've followed the note: 338990.1 (how to print publisher PDF reports via the concurrent manager) in metalink to print a PDF REPORT. Everything work fine except the page height and page width is used as default (8X11). Is there anyway that i can custom page height and page width size such as: legal (8.5X14).
current set up in pasta_pdf.cfg
[DEFAULT]
%% ============== Preprocessing Command ==================== %%
% Pasta can use a preprocessing command to invoke any executable
% that supports an input file and an output file (a filter program).
% You can use redirection. Pasta will invoke the filter program
% to preprocess the Pasta output before passing it to the printing
% command. By using the preprocess option, you can generate output
% formats other than the formats Pasta currently supports. For
% example, you can generate PCL output.
% You can use {infile} and {outfile} in this option.
% {infile} is the output file generated by Pasta. You can use
% it as input for the preprocessing command. It is a temporary
% file and will be deleted after being passed to the
% preprocessing command. {outfile} is the output file generated
% by the preprocessing command. Pasta names it temporarily and
% it will be deleted after being passed to the printing command.
% If you want to keep it, you can name it by using the '-o'
% command line option. Pasta will copy {outfile} to the file you
% specify.
% Preprocess for PDF output
% This is an example for PDF output to print.
; Xpdf
preprocess=/usr/local/bin/pdftops {infile} {outfile}
; Ghost Script
; preprocess=pdf2ps {infile} {outfile}
; Acrobat
; preprocess=acroread -toPostScript -pairs {infile} {outfile}
%% ============== Printing Command ========================= %%
% You can specify the printing command and options you want
% to use to print your report. Pasta will pass the final output
% to this command. {printername} will be replaced by the
% actual printer name passed through the command line option
% (-pn), so in most cases you don't have to change these
% options.
% for UNIX platform
printCommand=lp -c -d{printername}
% for Windows platform
ntPrintCommand=print /D:{printername}
%% ============== Error Log File =========================== %%
% This tells Pasta to create a log file. The default error
% output is stderr.
;errorlogfile=pasta.log
NOTE: pasta version 3.0.4
form server 6.0.8.27.0
third party tool is pdftops
Thanks

i think that can be down from the printing direver/styles/prt files when you added the printer at your apps system check the follwoign for more info.

Printing PDF report directly to printer, not using orarrp utility

The orarrp utility works only with Windows machines and it
requires installation on both the client machines and servers to
support. We need a more general solution.
Adobe has a java application/applet/javabean (and support
classes) to view PDF, and it is easy to write a java driver
which can be used in place of the orarrp utility. However,
Adobe's Java Viewer is extremely slow, does not produce quality
output, and is explicitly not supported by Adobe.
My question then relates to Reports. When the Report server
returns a PDF in the Previewer, I'm expecting the JINITIATOR,
used by Forms, is also used to support the Report frame and
functionality, including eventual printing. If this is the case,
is there not a set of classes, downloaded with Jinitiator, which
support the fonts, and printing of PDF to locally attached
printers?
And if so, shouldn't we, in Java, be able to make use of these
classes and their APIs to print PDF files directly to locally
attached printers without the need for Previewing first?

within a forms trigger:
1. generate the report
2. copy from iAS to local
like: webutil_file_transfer.url_to_client()
3. print.exe /d:printer filename (for windows OS)

The code executes well with no problem and get all datas from tables into table in PDF report from c# windows forms.
But here is my problem how can i align Title(DCS Clinical Report-Technician wise) center of pdf report with image named:logo5.png immediately coming to it's right?.
As the problem i am facing is my title or Header(DCS Clinical Report-Technician wise) is at top of my image named:logo5.png and not coming to it's center position of my image.
Second the problem i am facing is how to add new entire row to top of existing table in pdf report from c# windows form using iTextSharp?.

as you can see how i create my columns in table in pdf report and populate it with sql server data. Given the code below:
Document doc = new Document(PageSize.A4.Rotate());
var writer= PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream("Technician22.pdf", FileMode.Create));
doc.SetMargins(50, 50, 50, 50);
doc.SetPageSize(new iTextSharp.text.Rectangle(iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Width, iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Height));
doc.Open();
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(7);
table.TotalWidth=585f;
table.LockedWidth = true;
Paragraph para = new Paragraph("DCS Clinical Report-Technician wise", FontFactory.GetFont("Arial", 14, iTextSharp.text.Font.BOLD, BaseColor.BLACK));
para.Alignment = iTextSharp.text.Element.TITLE;
iTextSharp.text.Image png = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance("logo5.png");
png.ScaleToFit(95f, 95f);
png.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_RIGHT;
SqlConnection conn=new SqlConnection("Data Source=NPD-4\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DRRS;Integrated Security=true");
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Select t.technician_id,td.Technician_first_name,td.Technician_middle_name,td.Technician_last_name,t.technician_dob,t.technician_sex,td.technician_type from Techniciandetail td,Technician t where td.technician_id=t.technician_id and td.status=1", conn);
conn.Open();
SqlDataReader dr;
dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
table.AddCell("ID");
table.AddCell("First Name");
table.AddCell("Middle Name");
table.AddCell("Last Name");
table.AddCell("DOB" );
table.AddCell("Gender");
table.AddCell("Designation");
while (dr.Read())
table.AddCell(dr[0].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[1].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[2].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[3].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[4].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[5].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[6].ToString());
dr.Close();
table.SpacingBefore = 15f;
doc.Add(para);
doc.Add(png);
doc.Add(table);
doc.Close();

I’m sorry for the issue that you are hitting now.
This itextsharp is third party control, for this issue, I recommended to consult the control provider directly, I think they can give more precise troubleshooting.

Thanks for your understanding.

Not getting Euro Symbol in PDF Report using XML Publisher

Hi,
We have developed an Oracle Report from Report Builder 6i and also a Template in RTF Format.
We are using XML Publisher to display our XML Output in PDF Format to Users..
There is a Field called Comments on Customer Transaction Form, where user can enter any characters and that we are querying in Report and displaying on the PDF Output.
Currently, the user entered a Euro Character on the comments section and that was not visible to user on PDF Report and replaced by a Question Mark as below:
"3% price reduction ?89.91, 20% marine"
When i am Querying to the Database, i am able to see the Euro Symbol, but when i checked the XML generated on the Unix Box for the Report. I found as below:
"3% price reduction \342\202\25489.91, 20% marine"
So, the Euro Symbol on the database is replaced by " \342\202\254" in the XML Output and ? in the PDF Outbut.
Please help ASAP.
Regards
Saurabh Jaiswal

one way
value set based on view (view - select level id, chr(level) cl connect by level <= 500)
for example, chr(64) - @
so in xml you have code of @. sample xml is
<ROWSET>
<ROW>64</ROW>
</ROWSET>in rtf template pick
<?xdofx:chr(to_number(ROW))?>
select chr(14844588) from dual

How to print a BLOB (image) on a PDF report using Oracle APEX Listener as Print Server

Hi,
I use APEX 4.2.
I have the following query as SQL text for a Report Queries in Shared Components:
select
    customer_id,
    cust_first_name,
    cust_last_name,
    cust_street_address1,
    cust_street_address2,
    cust_city,
    cust_state,
    cust_postal_code,
    phone_number1,
    phone_number2,
    credit_limit,
    cust_email,
    filename,
    company_profile,
    -- customer_image,
    decode(nvl(dbms_lob.getlength(customer_image),0),0,null,
    '<img style="border: 4px solid #CCC; -moz-border-radius: 4px; -webkit-border-radius: 4px;" '||
    'src="' ||
    apex_util.get_blob_file_src('P22_CUSTOMER_IMAGE', customer_id) ||
    '" height="75" width="75" alt="Photo Customer" title="Photo Customer" />') customer_image,
    mimetype,
    image_last_update
from
    demo_customers;
I am unable to have the image printed on the PDF report. Even when the P22_CUSTOMER_IMAGE is defined as session state item.
Does someone knows how to print such image/BLOB in a PDF report?
Thanks by advance.
Kind Regards.

Hi,
Indeed, I would need a custom layout.
Unfortunately, it seems (according to this white paper) not possible with the APEX listener only. I would need a third pary tool. A pity...
For me strange, that I cannot generate such a report having images or pictures in a pre-definied report layout... Maybe a future enahancement for Oracle.
Kind Regards.
