using Crystal report s

[Andrew]

hello

Is it possible to create a PDF document from an HTML
file using Crystal decisions. I have a .html file which I
want to turn into a PDF programmatically.I have crystal
reports as part of VS.NET but I have not used that before

Also is it possible to send the same PDF to the printer
programmatically using crystal reports

I look forward to any response

No, Crystal can only covert reports into PDF.

Yes, you can use Crystal to send the report to a printer - but not the
client PC, only the servers printer.

You're talking about Adobe .PDF, correct?
From the help for Crystal Reports in Visual Studio, it appears that the
CrystalDecisions classes do not support export to PDF format. I believe you
would have to use third party software to convert your HTML file to a PDF.
