is there any other method of saving labview data in pdf file from code itself
For example i have to save data in single pdf file from live running data or it may contain many different sheets
i don't want to convert file from any format that can be done easily with pdf itself
thanks,

If it is related to your previous post, you could try to print to pdf if you have a pdf printer installed on your machine.

I'm away from LabVIEW temporarily, but as I recall, Microsoft Word can save a PDF. It is convoluted, but you could create a Report with the Report Generation Toolkit in Word, and could probably (with a Word Macro?) get Word to generate a PDF for you. Alternatively, you could save the data in a nicely-formatted Text file (or HTML document or something that is "ready-to-print"), and (as ben64 suggested) use "something else" (Adobe Acrobat, perhaps?) to convert it to PDF. You could do the conversion step "by hand" (i.e. let LabVIEW acquire and process the data and make a Text report, then exit and use Some Other Software to create the PDF) or you could use System Calls (I forget the proper name of the LabVIEW Function that basically issues DOS-like calls) to get the Some Other Software to process your file.
Or you could follow my suggestion and contact the people who made the PDF utility for LabVIEW that you are trying to use.
