CHAPTER 22 Deploying Your Application
Users Guide 607
You can override either the configuration or properties entries or both. If you
make incorrect entries, InfoMaker attempts to recover by defaulting to the
static registry. However, you should be cautious about making any changes
since you can cause incorrect behavior in the JVM if you do not configure it
correctly.
Saving as PDF and XSL-FO
If your application includes a report or form that has a button that displays the
Save As dialog box, you need to deploy some files that enable users to save as
PDF or XSL-FO. To save as PDF using the distill method, users also need to
download and install Ghostscript.
For more information about saving as PDF and XSL-FO, see “Saving the data
as PDF” on page 209 and “Saving as XSL-FO” on page 212. For more
information about assigning button actions, see “Actions assignable to buttons
in reports” on page 244.
Using the Ghostscript distiller
In order for users to save data as PDF with the distiller, they must first
download and install Ghostscript on their computers as described in the
procedure that follows.
