RE: Creating a PDF in RPG

[Paul Wiese <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Using the ovrprtf to *pdf is the easiest. I have created many jobs that create the pdf in an ifs directory under a generic name and then used a rnm command to rename it with specifics like customer name, number, date, etc... I have setup print files in RPG to be user control. Then open and close them for each customer or account, thus creating a pdf file for each report break. After the file is closed, I will use CL commands to rename and possibly attach to an email or ftp the pdf to the final location on another server share, before opening the print file for the next customer or account.
