Convert xls report into PDF bugging

Hello,

I want to be able to capture key info in my methods and generate a PDF. But something is not working:

Very straightforward method:
-User browse to select where to save the report
-Create an excel file
-Write something in there
-Close
-Convert to PDF

Issue:

-The conversion doesn’t work. Any idea why?

Could that be linked to a third party software issue?
PDF Convertor?

What is HSL_PDFCreator?

Hi @KevinJ,

The PDFCreator library does rely on third party software. Instead, I’d recommend using the Printing library, available at this link. The download has a zip file which includes two libraries: Printing and ZipFiles. No installer is required, but these files should be placed in the “C:\Program Files (x86)\Hamilton\Library\HSLExtensions” folder, which is created during installation of the HSLExtensions library.

Thank you,
Dan

@Gareth FYI this comes as Part of Venus II Training. The software that is required is PDFCreator.
