Is there any way to generate a pdf of Mashup by one click (Widget)/service in the Mashup?

Have a Mashup with different type of data selection which is giving me final Report in Mashup which I want to send/share with someone in pdf format. Is there any way to do so? Thank you!

    You could use the File/Print option in your browser and output to pdf format.

    Sorry. Looking for Thingworx service/widget to complete this task.

    If it is possible. Could you tell any service/widget which reads the selection by click? If list is being used for selection purpose.

    Thank you!

    Looking for same functionality as we are having an option (As ACTIONS) View as PDF in the left-middle of Is there any way to generate a pdf of Mashup by one click (Widget)/service in the Mashup? this page. Can we get it in Thingworx as Widget/service? Else how we can create this functionality for Thingworx Mashup (Which is having gauge, LED, Table, Map and etc.) after selecting the item/s from list?

    Thank you!

      Hi,

      I have a problem with the new version of March 2017 of the widget PDFExtension.

      when I execute the service CreatePDF from the Composer, there's an error:

      Unable to Invoke Service CreatePDF on PDFExport : Could not launch browser. Build info: version: '2.52.0', revision: '4c2593cfc3689a7fcd7be52549167e5ccc93ad28', time: '2016-02-11 11:22:43' System info: host: 'ubuntu', ip: '127.0.1.1', os.name: 'Linux', os.arch: 'amd64', os.version: '4.4.0-21-generic', java.version: '1.8.0_92' Driver info: driver.version: JBrowserDriver

       

      The error in Logs Application:

      [context: com.thingworx.webservices.context.HttpExecutionContext@75ac754e][message: Unable to Invoke Service CreatePDF on PDFExport : Could not launch browser.

       

      The error in Tomcat (catalina.out):

      java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sun/webkit/network/CookieManager

            at com.machinepublishers.jbrowserdriver.JBrowserDriverServer.main(JBrowserDriverServer.java:74)

            at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:357)

            ... 1 more

       

      Based on this issue (Linux: can not start the driver · Issue #186 · MachinePublishers/jBrowserDriver · GitHub), I tried to install the package "openjfx" but it doesn't resolve the problem.


      I tried to replace some .jar in the widget with new version ones but it doesn't work.

      Did you have this error ?
