Configuring the Settings for Generating PDF

Generating PDF Using Adlib

Create or open the text file to contain customized properties. For more information, see Editing Properties Using MQL.
To enable or disable PDF generation for reports, follow these steps:
1. Add or edit this line in the file used to import properties into a page object:
```
enoTemplate.RenderPDF = True
```
2. Specify the value for this property depending on your business requirements:
  1. True = Report is generated in the pdf format.
  2. False = Report is not generated in the pdf format.
To notify the product data owner of successful PDF rendition, add or edit this line:
```
emxCPN.PDF.SuccessMessage = Rendering Successful
```
To notify the product data owner if the PDF rendition fails, add or edit this line:
```
emxCPN.PDF.ErrorMessage = Rendention Process Failed
```
When finished updating the text file with all properties you want to modify, including the ones shown here, use the text file to modify the enoTemplate.RenderPDF.properties page object. For more information, see Editing Properties Using MQL.

For generating PDF using Aspose, you must check the system font settings. If system fonts are installed, start the configuration settings from step 2.

System fonts are installed by default in windows operating system. To check the availability of system fonts on Linux operating system, navigate to the below location:
/usr/share/fonts

If system fonts are not available, do the following:

```
wget  http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/
Packages/l/libmspack-0.5-0.1.alpha.el6.x86_64.rpm
```
  2. Install the rp
```
rpm –ivh  libmspack-0.5-0.1.alpha.el6.x86_64.rpm
```
2. Install cabextract rpm package.

```
  2. Install the rpm package
```

  1. True = Report is generated in the pdf format.
  2. False = Report is not generated in the pdf format.
