  • Hello,

    Could you clarify what kind of data you're trying to export as a PDF? If this is just Form data or a small amount of relationship grid data, you might be able to get away with just using the standard JavaScript print() function. Your users can then choose to print the data to a PDF. Also, could you clarify what error you're getting when trying to use that Office DLL? Have you followed the steps from this blog post to link an external DLL to your Aras Innovator instance?

    Alternatively, depending on what kind of data you're trying to export, an Aras subscription will allow you to use the Conversion Server which supports exports to PDFs for some kinds of documents. You can email [email protected] to learn more about signing up for an Aras subscription. 

    To answer your last question, the easiest way to add an item to the context menu of the relationship grid is to add an Action onto the related ItemType or the Relationship ItemType.

  • Hi Chris

    Thanks for your reply

    I want to export a itemtype's information and its relation items like packing list
    , etc. Contains images, lists, special formats.

    system show that I am miss the reference,

    And Yes I followed that steps to link dll,

    but I just Add dll to the install bin folder even not using it ,
    It's almost blank on the interface, it can't be used. so I don'k know why is that.

    last question, you mean the client event and server event on itemtype ?

    thanks again!!!

    And I
    want to ask another question, I want to develop a web at local machine,

    to receive value and sent value to aras

    whow can i use aras's method on it? like .getItemById...
