Hi John,
HTMLToPDF is the activity which will be needed to generate the pdf, Pega uses the third party tool pd4ml to generate the pdf file.
Please refer the OOTB activities pyViewAsPDF and pyGeneratepdf to understand how you can use the Markup and StreamName to pass them to HTMLtoPDF activity and get the PDF generated.
Thanks,
Susan

Hi Susan,
In the section, I am having chart and repeating grid display.
When I try to pint the section using HTML stream. chart displays query and repeating grid displays only text (color and border are removed) in the PDF document.
Do you have any idea?

Also, consider using one of the flow smart shapes (you can drag it right onto your diagram in the flow editor screen). There's a smart shape that will allow you to convert a section to pdf AND attach the pdf file to the case, all in one go. /Eric
