Hi Richard

We routinely install the free PDF writer (using Ghostscript) "FreePDF
XP" on all client machines because everybody asks for this feature.
It installs easily and uses the Apple Postscript printer driver of
Windows, so no questions about the validity of the generated files.

It can be found here:
http://freepdfxp.de/fpxp.htm 

When you print, a popup lets the user select to send the pdf as an
attachment via your e-mail client:
http://freepdfxp.de/fpxpscreenshots2.htm 

It's in German but the installer allows you to select English for the
user interface.

Hi

 

Not been doing a lot of MS Access  recently, but have now a request to
add this functionality to a A97 database.........

 

save reports to pdf format and then email.

 

 

How easy is this?

 

Richard
