Printing Documents to PDF from NAV / Business Central

👋 Hi all,

This article am writing on the request of @Akash, It's already published by Bullzip, here am going to describe step by step for new developer who is still bothering How to set password, Digital signature, Watermark e.t.c on PDF Documents.

This is an example of how to use the PDF Printer from Microsoft Dynamics NAV / business Central (on premise).

I will use the C/AL code to show you a couple of thing that you can do from NAV. These subjects are covered by the example.

• Printing multiple documents in a loop.
• Using a watermark with dynamic text.
• Signing the PDF using a digital certificate.
• Sending Documents to Customer over Email.
• Error handling

Print & Open any document in NAV using DotNet Variables.

Hi all,
Today i came across with different type of requirement, where someone asking for how could we Print & Open any document in NAV using DotNet Variables.

This Generic solution for Running/Opening and Printing any document, without any custom dlls, that always works, whenever, however, with any software, as long as you have “any” software installed that can Open & print that “any”-document with any extension ...
In-case if not Open or Print, it should give an error notification regarding failure...

To achieve these requirement i created two functions, and declared local dotnet variables for both functions, where as FileNameWithPathG is a Global Text variable.

See the bellow screenshot for better understanding.
