Draw a Graph in PDF format

Cente90, from your description it seems that you are sequentially printing multiple pages. Did you manage to print them to a single PDF document? I use a (probably) similar printing technique for some reports, it works well on a paper printer, but generates as many files as pages on a PDF printer. What's the role of Easy print VI panel here?


I did, but the Easy print VI was not the key to accomplish that: I just managed to size and align the tab controls on the front panel (one tab for each sheet/page, as I mentioned before) so that when I press the "print" button, after programmatically hiding all the objects on the front panel that I don't want to print (I only leave the tab controls), I can get each tab printed on a different page of the PDF document.

Hope the image attached can explain it even better: you can see one tab/page of my report and, above it, on the very upper zone of the front panel, a small section of the previous tab/page: having the tabs with that size and alignment and hiding everything else at the moment of printing, I get everything in the same PDF.

I see. Useful for fixed format reports but not for variable length tables like many of mine.

I will post in the Idea Exchange forum a proposal for queued printing.

Ciao e buon lavoro.
