Question
How to print an EForm
Hi,
We use EForms (Code-Pega-eForm) to generate a pre-filled PDF for Download. Now, we have a request to no longer allow download of PDF files, instead allow only print. Does any one know how we could achieve this functionality?
Additional information: Our application is built on Pega 6.2
Thank you for your help,
Ioana
Thank you for your answer, but this doesn't allow me to print (without download) the PDF generated using EForm.
The trouble is that this EForm contains information that cannot be customized with Harness & Section rules.
So far I have tried using javascript function - but this doesn't work with IE (works well with Chrome though):
- While Chrome opens the print preview window (with pdf content), IE opens a system window that prompts the user to either save the document (which we don't like) - open the document with Adobe acrobat (which we also don't like) or -open document with app of your choice - only after selecting any option (or closing this window) - the select printer screen appears (but then the printed content is that of the pega app window, not the pdf content).
Accepted Solution
As we didn't receive an answer for this question, we went with using a different approach: we email the document and delegate the "disable download, allow only print" to the email client.
