Would it be possible to have this method returning true or false?

Code: Select all: //to print current record without printdialog to pdf file in temp dir. controller.print(true,false,plugins.pdf_output.getPDFPrinter('c:/temp/out.pdf'))

I like to be sure if the PDF is created.

see the sample of: startMetaData:

Code: Select all: //to print multiple forms to one pdf document (on file system). var success = plugins.pdf_output.startMetaPrintJob('c:/temp/out.pdf') if (success) { controller.print(true,false,plugins.pdf_output.getPDFPrinter()); forms.otherform.controller.print(true,false,plugins.pdf_output.getPDFPrinter()); } plugins.pdf_output.endMetaPrintJob() //to print multiple forms to one pdf document (to store in dataprovider). var success = plugins.pdf_output.startMetaPrintJob() if (success) { controller.print(true,false,plugins.pdf_output.getPDFPrinter()); forms.otherform.controller.print(true,false,plugins.pdf_output.getPDFPrinter()); } mediaDataProvider = plugins.pdf_output.endMetaPrintJob()

//to print multiple forms to one pdf document (to store in dataprovider).
var success = plugins.pdf_output.startMetaPrintJob()
if (success)
{
controller.print(true,false,plugins.pdf_output.getPDFPrinter());
forms.otherform.controller.print(true,false,plugins.pdf_output.getPDFPrinter());
}
mediaDataProvider = plugins.pdf_output.endMetaPrintJob()

How can I make this mediaDataProvider thing downloadable to the webclient user? Do I have to turn this mediaDataProvider object into an JSFile object? How should I do this?

plugins.file.write("name", mediaDataProvider)

should also work, you can write the bytes directly
