In this blog post I will tell you about new QuintaDB feature - Export data to PDF.

Steps to export database

1. Go to the Records menu.
2. Find  "Export" menu and click on "Export to PDF".

3. Click on it and customize the PDF document:

- Paper size (you select page size, A4 to A0):

  A4 (8.3" x 11.7")
  A3 (11.7" x 16.5")
  A2 (16.5" x 23.4")
  A1 (23.4" x 33.1")
  A0 (33.1" x 46.8")
  Letter (8.5" x 11")
  Legal (8.5" x 14") 
  Tabloid (8.3" x 17")

- Orientation:

  Portrait (page orientation where the height of the display area is greater than the width)
  Landscape (page orientation where a wide view area is needed)

- Printing format:

  Table view (use this option if you need to show a database table on the whole page)
  Individual Entries (use this option if you need to show one record per page)

You can configure the export in the menu "Export" - "Export settings". You can also export Report data to PDF.

Steps to enable export in Table widget

 - Go to the Table Widget menu;
 - In the Settings tab Enable Export to PDF;

- On the integrated table you will see the PDF icon.

A PDF is a printer-friendly document. In some systems, you may require Acrobate Reader™ to open the file. Click on the icon once and wait. It will take some time, depending on the file size.
