  • We use, and have for a long time, CutePDF - http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp. It installs as a printer driver and the end user can simply select it as the active printer from their printer session. You have to install Ghostscript as well but it is also a freebie. You can also use it to print from Client Access. You can also use Win2PDF but unless you're a registered user it prints an extra sheet at the end of your document that has their self promo in the footer. It really doesn't get any easier than CutePDF though.

  • We have used Gumbo Software's SNDSPLMAIL for years. Works great. We have never had a problem with it. It is reasonably priced and comes with tons of features. We wrote a program to monitor an output queue and use SNDSPLMAIL to convert the AS/400 spool file to PDF and e-mail it to the user who ran the report. Our folks really like this. It has really reduced the number of reports we print because most users can get the needed info by just viewing the report on the screen.

  • Bradley Stone also sells a top notch PDF conversion tool for the AS/400. We have used some of his tools for a long time also. Very reliable with good support.

  • Im am trying to use CutePDF to print from the as400 to pdf but am having some problems. right now i set up a print session that points to cutePDF. It creates the file, but it is blank. Can someone walk me through how to configure the printer in the as400 or the print session properly so it will work with a pdf printer? i kind of fumbuled around that part and think thats where i made my errors.

  • SNDSPLMAIL- SNDSPLMAIL. Can you, please, help me with some advice:
    I need to use on overlay form so I use the
    keyword PDFOVL in SNDSPLMAIL command. Is there a possibility to rotate the overlay?

  • If you have the IBM Access Client (not Client Access) the printer output converts nicely.

  • If you have the IBM Access Client (not Client Access)..
    I'm not aware of a product named 'IBM Access Client'. Is there a product number? There is 'IBM i Access' ('..for Windows' or '..for Linux', etc.) and '
    IBM i Access Client Solutions'. Both are current versions of Client Access.
    Also, it's not a good idea to copy anything new into a /QDLS document. And SNDSMTPEMM should be preferred to SNDDST in all current OS releases.

  • Hi Avrelivs. I have written my own command (SNDSMTPEML) that converts directly from SPLF to PDF with overlay templates. Let me know if you'd like a copy.

  • We use a package that works quite well for us.
    Check out PDFING.
    report
  • We used a tool a few years ago called report downloader from Evergreen Interactive that worked well, we mostly used it to download to spreadsheets, but there was a .pdf option as well.

    Type 99 arisaka serial numbers. If you are using Access Client Solutions from IBM (instead of Client Access) the capability is built in to the tool.

  • What is the size of your overlay and how was it created? It may be it is not scaling to the right size.
    report
  • It is an *ovl file. Size is 32768. When I print the spooled file, it is printing correctly, but when I do the cpysplf and print the .pdf, some of the font (not all) is completely different.
    report
  • You say the font is different, is this font in the overlay or the data coming from the i-series that is changing?
    report
  • It is the font in the overlay. It is printing the data ok.

  • Sounds like an unsupported font, or font size. What is the font giving you the problem, Check to see if it is supported on the i-Series.WRKOBJ OBJ(*ALL/*ALL) OBJTYPE(*FNTRSC)
    report
  • It is not the font type that is the problem..it is more the font size. The overlay has several different sizes of the same font in different areas. It seems to be printing the same font style, it is just making it all the same size.

  • Found this as a possible solution to a similar problem.
    'we were missing PTFs SI44072 and SI43764. As soon as they were applied, everything works just great'
    report
  • I have already checked on that. We already have those PTF's.

  • Guys, anybody know how to convert the spool files to pdf in color.
    report
  • For color I think you need 3rd party software like PDFing or one of the others out there.
    report
  • After further investigation, I discovered that the font we used on the overlay on the iseries is not supported in pdf. The font we are using is 11 (courier) and 420 (courier roman bold). PDF changes the courier font to courier std but it keep the courier roman bold, however, the width and height settings on the fonts in the overlay are ignored. Do I need to specify a different font for each different size we use? How do I know which fonts we have on the iseries are supported in .pdf?
