Set Up the PDF Generator

Most AgilePoint users who generate PDFs use AgilePoint's PDF Generator AgilePart. However, it is possible to use the built-in PDF generator module for AgileForms, as well. This method simply requires some additional setup.

If you want to use the AgileForms PDF Generator, complete the procedures in this topic. Note that this is optional, depending upon the requirements for your organization.

Prerequisites

If you want to use the PDF Generator in AgileForms, you cannot have Internet Explorer 9 installed on the AgileForms Server machine. This only applies to the built-in AgileForms PDF Generator feature on the AgileForms Server machine. It does not apply to PDF generation using the PDF Generator AgileShape, or to AgileForms clients machines.

Register the PDF Generator

To register the PDF Generator for AgileForms:

Open the folder [AgileForms Server installation folder]\FS2\Forms\pdfgen.
Double-click the registration file that is appropriate for your system to add it to the registry:
- 32 bit - ABCpdfRegistration.reg
- 64 bit - ABCpdfRegistration64bit.reg

Update the Print CSS Location

To update the print CSS location:

In a text editor, open the file [AgileForms Server installation folder]\FS2\overrides.txt.
In overrides.txt, add the following line, replacing [host name] and [port] with the information for your AgileForms Server machine:
```
Forms/print_css_location: "http://[host name]:[port]/js/print.css"
```
Restart the Windows service named Firmstep.
