Downloading a PDF using a button or Menu option

[Servant5166]

Hi,

 

I'm using ReportBuilder 18, and I need an option to download PDF's to the user's machine instead of displaying the report. How do I accomplish this?

 

I'm using uniGUI 1.0.0.1420 and Delphi 10.2.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

 

Use UniSession.SendFile

\FMSoft\Framework\uniGUI\Demos\Desktop\SendFile

Best regards,

I'm not sure on how to do it. I would like a save dialog box to prompt the user for filename and location.

 

Here's my code to create the PDF below

 

function TrepDataModule.GenRep(ID: Integer; ReportName: string): string;

var

   lPDFDevice:  TppPDFDevice;

begin

      lPDFDevice := TppPDFDevice.Create(nil);

      lPDFDevice.PDFSettings := Reports.PDFSettings;

      lPDFDevice.FileName    := UniServerModule.NewCacheFileUrl(False, 'pdf', '', '', Result, True);

      lPDFDevice.Publisher   := Reports.Publisher;

      // generate the report

      Reports.PrintToDevices;

   finally

      lPDFDevice.Free;

   end;

end;

 

Thank you.
