Hi guys, I'm trying to learn a little something about generating PDF files on the fly. My problem is this: When I do content/pdf/[node_id] on my demo site running 3.4.2, I'm asked to open a file named [node_id] of the file type Adobe Acrobat Control for Active X. However, when I select "Open", I get the error msg:
[error_msg]
Can not download [node_id] from www.demosite.com.
Can not open this Internet area. The area in question is either unavailable, or does not exist. Try again later.
[/error_msg] Am I missing something here? Thanks in advance !
Sincerely,
Eirik Alfstad Johansen

Hi,
click
http://demo.Exponential.no/news/content/pdf/82
is this works,:
1. Check permissions in Exponential
2. Check URL
if not
2. Try another Browser not IE. e.g. Firefox or Mozilla or Opera or Safari or Konquerer Greetings, ekke

Hi ekke, Thanks a lot for helping me out. When I click the URL you provided, I do get a PDF document. However, I can't seem to figure out how this URI is constructed. What is the syntax? Thanks in advance !

Hi ekke, After examining my own demo site, I discovered that the "news" part is the name of the siteaccess and not a module nor a node. So I guess I should use content/pdf/[node_id] as the URI. However, this only works for nodes of the article class. Shouldn't there be a fallback PDF template for nodes of other classes as well? Thanks in advance !
Sincerely,

Hi again, I'm sorry for posting so many times, but I wouldn't want you to spend time answering something I've already discovered myself. This is where I'm at: When I go to nyheter/latest_updates_from_us on my demo site and click the "Download a PDF version of this page" link, the PDF appears as supposed to. However, if I copy and paste the exact same URL (http://ezpdemo.netmaking.no/index.php/content/pdf/80) into the URL field of the web browser, I get the error as described in my first post. How can the URL be treated differently depending on whether I click a link or copy'n'paste it into the URL field?!
Sincerely,
Eirik Alfstad Johansen

Hi Eirik,
just to let you know: When i open the URL, that you just posted, i get a very nice PDF in my Firefox browser.
Your PDF even looks better than the one from demo.Exponential.no

Hi Marco, Did you click the link, or copy'n'paste it into the URL bar? It actually makes a difference in my IE 6.0.

IE 6.0 problem. Click on link works, via addressbar not.
Look, the header is in both cases OK, wondering if not ;-)
So the result should be the same.
Copy in bar: http://demo.Exponential.no/news/content/pdf/82
GET /news/content/pdf/82 HTTP/1.1
Host: demo.Exponential.no HTTP/1.x 200 OK
Last-Modified: xxx
Content-Language: eng-GB
Content-Length: 2044
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Type: application/pdf
----------------------------------------------------------
Click on link:
http://demo.Exponential.no/news/content/pdf/82 GET /news/content/pdf/82 HTTP/1.1 HTTP/1.x 200 OK
Content-Language: eng-GB
Content-Length: 2044
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Type: application/pdf
----------------------------------------------------------
So it should depends on the new security settings after new "Service Pack" 2
Your ActiveX is, when clicking link, more thrusty (Different Security Zone) then via direkt input. This makes no sense for You? -> market leader Greetings ekke Greetings, ekke
