StiWebViewer supports three modes of printing: print a report using the Adobe PDF export, print with preview and print without preview.
Print a
report using the Adobe PDF export.
A report is exported to the Adobe PDF format. Then the file is sent as a report to the client browser. The client browser automatically opens the file and runs Adobe Acrobat to show the report (if it is installed).
Print
with preview.
In this mode the report generator forms a report as an HTML page. This page is shown in the client browser. Using it the printing can be done.
Print
without preview.
In this mode the report generator forms invisible frame on a page of StiWebViewer in what a report as an HTML page is placed. Then, using the CSS, the client browser runs printing of the HTML page.
