  • 1.  Everyone on the Internet - add print to PDF button

    Posted 05-29-2020 15:03
    I have a link to a non-QBase users form.  Would like to add a "Print to PDF" button before they hit "Save and Close".  This allows the person on-QBase user competing the form to have a detailed record of their submission prior to sending. The user won't have access to any tables so it's important for them to print it before sending it.  Is there a code for this? The standard "Print to PDF" formula only works for QBase users. Thanks.

    Can you post the formula that you say currently works after saving?

    Using Magic Button formula below.  It works for QB users but not for Non QBases users (EOTI) who complete a form, then Save & Close.   

    URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=printr&rid=" & [Record ID#]

    Thanks

    I do not think that there can be a URL formula print that can work, because until the record is saved, Quick Base can see it. 


    I think you need to explore keyboard short cuts for your browser and device type to print the web page. For example CTRL-P
