PDFinclude is a stand-alone component that defines a toolset of Progress functions and procedures that aid in the output of a PDF file ... without having to generate a separate text file first (as in text2pdf.p).

The PDF file format is fast becoming an industry-standard for electronic document viewing. The PDF format allows for documents that can be accessed by a broad range of hardware and software devices (including PDAs and Internet browsers).

PDFinclude utilizes Progress code that is compliant with versions 8 and 9 of the Progress 4GL and the same source code can be used on multiple OS platforms - including Windows, AIX, Unixware, Solaris etc. - while running in different application environments (eg: GUI, CHUI, web-enabled and n-tier).

Downloads See "attachments" below for the downloads, including a download of a PowerPoint presentation from the Michigan PUG.

The big .zip download includes a Word document, which is the PDF Include documentation. I've also attached a PDF of that. Thanks Peter Frederick for sending the PDF!

Pro-Sys Consultants are the original authors of PDF Include, and provide commercial support as well as a commercial version of the product.
