  • Web 2.0 reports: Outputting to PDF
    .

    The best thing about Portable Data Files or PDFs is that they are, well, portable.

    And now, with m-Power's m-Painter feature, you only create the look of a report once and that look can easily be applied to PDFs, HTML, even Excel, to make sure that your look is consistent across the board.

    Additionally, by doing the painting at the HTML level with m-Painter, designing the look of reports can be done by highlighting, dragging and dropping in minutes.

    This new feature not only will save you tons of time, but it makes maintaining a consistent corporate look even easier to achieve.

    To learn more, here's the documentation to create your formatted PDF from your Web 2.0 report»

    m-Powered Featured Update (Customers Only)

    This month's featured update: Web 2.0 Single Record Maintenance and Work-With Maintenance templates are installed!

    These new Web 2.0 templates are architectural gems employing the most advanced Object Oriented Programming techniques, the best features of the well-respected Springs Framework, Java code that is J2EE-compliant, HTML code that approaches XHMTL standards, and an open-source JSP-style syntax that supplants the original proprietary TPL.

    All of these architectural improvements result in generated programs that execute significantly faster than first-generation apps, scale elegantly to handle a multitude of simultaneous users, and enable some truly powerful new features.
