Re: Web Forms to PDF (was AFP-To-PDF)


Nice start, but if you're going to provide an example provide a
code-complete example with the PDF generation logic as well so someone
without experience can adapt your example.


I'm invoking a black-box utility to transform HTML to PDF which is based on
iText. But I've never really examined the code, myself. I just implemented
HL wrappers around a couple of branded solutions.


Otherwise it's not very useful when you just show a little RPG logic to
process the fields and then call your black box.


What's the problem with just calling a black-box utility? Frankly, I'd
rather not take the time to immerse myself in the code behind it. Why not
just use it like a %bif().
