    Tech Tip: Printing from the RB Web Report Viewer
    ---------------------------------------------------

    The WebTier is designed so that you can easily add a 'Print' button to
    the web report viewer toolbar. The Print button enables the user to
    generate a PDF document that can be printed to their local printer.

    ReportBuilder currently relies on third party solutions for PDF output.
    There are two solutions available:

    a. Pragnaan - www.pragnaan.com
    b. Waler - www.waler.com


    RB Server includes adapter classes to support the PDF solutions
    mentioned above. To add a 'Print' button to the web report viewer you
    include one of the following units in the 'uses' clause of the web
    module containing the WebTier component.


    a. rsWebAdapterPDFPragnaan - web adapter class for Pragnaan PDF
    b. rsWebAdapterPDFWaler - web adapter class for Waler PDF



    For an example see RBServer\Demos\Web Tier\ISAPI\WebModule.pas. There
    are comments at the top of the unit that explain what to do. You must
    have either the Pragnaan or Waler PDF support to implement the Print
    button.
