PX that converts Item Attchment (.DOCX) to .PDF and attach it to Change Attachment Tab
Hello,
I need to write a PX, which is like, when a Change is released, it should convert the Item Attachment .docx file into .pdf file and attach the converted file to Change Attachment tab automatically. Also, some of the Item attributes must get printed on the .pdf file. Can anyone help me in this? Its Urgent.
Shiva, the best advice I could provide is to approach someone like Inspirage or Domain and ask that they put this together for you.
Agree with Patrick here, It looks like a full fledged development with considerable effort, so having a implementation/solution partner is the way to go.
We have done something like this in the past. If you have access to a Windows machine with MS Office installed that is accessible from Agile host, this is straightforward. Contact us.
There are commercial libraries that will convert word to pdf. ($$$)
One of the available cheapy way is to use OpenOffice jar library if you are on Linux system.
Look up DocumentConverter class. It will convert Excel or Word to pdf format
