( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I have two questions, hoping someone can help:

I am retrieving data from SQl Server in a array. Prior, while fetching the data, I was printing this data onto a text file. Instead of printing to text file, I'd like to print to PDF. How can I do that? (I can print a line of text using the pdf::api2 module, but I am having difficulties printing from an array)

Now the second question is, the data returned has unique account numbers by summary level. I like these account numbers to be a hyperlinks on the pdf. So if user clicks on account number #12345 - I want to get that value (12345) and run a SP that will give me details about that accountnumber and then output the details onto another pdf page. Once again, I can create the hyperlinks using an annotation object for static text, but what about dynamic text?

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
