Making a PDF from LAbView Report

[Geni]

Hi,

How do can I make an PDF-file of my LabView report?
I was thinking of using Adobe PDF writer and just printing the report a PDF-file.
Do I have to do anything else that just install Adobe Writer or do I have to do some kind of configuration?
Is it also possible to name the PDF-file the same as the measurementnumber that I give it?
I currently work with LabView 7.1

hi Geni,

please have a look at this link.
in my oppinion the easiest way is to use the "pdf printer" as output (when using the report generation toolkit).

Take a look at the above link. It has all you will ever need.

Well I still want to use Acrobat Writer, since I have that program.

Hi Geni,

As far as I'm aware all you have to do is select the Acrobat Writer as the default printer and then just print as you would normally have done to the physical printer. Doesn't that work for you?

Here's another thread that talks about how to use Acrobat Writer to print a VI programmatically. Is that something you can use?

Have fun!
