With the new Servoy pdf plugin it is possible to print Servoy forms directly to pdf. The pdf uses opensource libraries that are been developed and maintained by:  
[http://www.lowagie.com/iText/](http://www.lowagie.com/iText/)

The pdf plugin ONLY works in Servoy 1.2rc8 or higher

-download the [http://downloads.servoy.com/beta/pdf\_output.zip](http://downloads.servoy.com/beta/pdf_output.zip)  
-extract in the Servoy plugin folder (keep directorys while unzipping)  
-use in javascript: controller.print(true,false,plugins.pdf\_output.getPDFPrinter(‘c:/temp/out.pdf’));//to print current record without printdialog to pdf file in temp dir.

NOTE: The pdf plugin does not work properly yet on OS X.

This thing really is great and works like it should on… Win2000.

When will it work on OS X?

Have you tested it with 1.4.2? It might work. There’s not much we can do about it.

Nope.. Unfortunately…

So what you say is that it is possible that it will not work on OS X ever?
