Hi,

We are evaluating the QUICKPDF with PowerBuilder 11.5. I have written a piece of code to create string to PDF which is created successfully.

but my question is how i can create the PDF from datawindow directly. which i am able to do by using another PDF creator software.

will appreciate your quick response

I am not sure what other PDF creator software you use but with Powerbuilder 11.5 you essentially have the to a print to a virtual print driver to create the PDF. Unfortunately, the Quick PDF library does not have this. You will need to use another product to do this.

BTW
The new version of Powerbuilder coming out next year by Appeon will allow you to do a save as to PDF.

Unfortunately, you cannot use QuickPDF to create a PDF from a Powerbuilder DataWindow. I would suggest using a search engine to find a solution. Enter "Powerbuilder PDF" and you will get many different solutions.
