GDL Web Control: Webpage output as PDF

Jochen Suehlo — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 11:16:17 GMT

Does anyone see the possibility to get an output of a webpage, where the GDL Web Control is running, as PDF-File?
A 2D-snapshot and a 3D-snapshot shall be taken.
My web developer says this is not possible, because the Web Control cannot write a bitmap file on the server.

If I understand your request properly, this should be very easy. In your web browser, just select File > Print, then select PDF > Save As PDF... from the Print dialog, and save.

It seems, I forgot in my request an important thing:
- the output is not for me, it shall be for the visitors of the web site (so the Windows users cannot do this)
