Split report to multiple pdf/print job

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 12

Hi everyone,

I have a scenario where I need to send multiple print outs into the printer.

For example, by default, when executing sales report by filtering customer number 01-10, it will combine 10 customer print outs into a single preview/output/PDF.

What I need to do is split the 10 print outs into 10 pdf/print batches.

This is mainly due to a printer that automatically stapler based on the print job.

Exact scenario is printing multiple invoices, but it will staple the whole chunk of invoices together, which is causing a problem for my customer.

Have tried looping and sending to printer and googled around but not able to achieve automatic print to printer based on seperate print job.

    Hi Amit,

    thanks for the link. However, it doesn't solve the requirement that we have.

    We need to split the printing to multiple pdf files.

    not print multiple copies per pdf..

    Hi Marco,

    thanks for the response, unfortunately, this isn't what we're looking at.

    This is more of 3 invoice pdf combine into 1 pdf.

    What we need is

    1 pdf split into 3 invoice pdf and send to the printer to be printed individually.

    Hi, As far as I know BC doesn't currently support split PDF functionality.
    May be you can try the Javascript way.

    Here is an example of merging pdf.

    And split pdf in separate files in javascript:
