issues with downloading using the PrintWork activity
Hello,
I'm trying to download a section in PDF format, using the PrintWork activity,
I created a Harness action on the button;
then I linked the section on the Harness;
finally I called the activity PrintWork;
but when I run the case and click on the Button, open a pop-up window but it's not downloading the section.
In attach, I'm showing the process i said above
Is missing something?

Hi,
PrintWork Activity will not download the section but only displays the PrintView harness. you may need to use the browser print option Ctrl+P to download the file.
Thanks,

Yes, we can develop the download functionality for button/icon but it is not possible with PrintWork Activty.
May I Know your exact requirement about what you want to download? So that I can help with correct approach.

I want to download a Section in PDF format by a Custom button, I'm using PEGA 7.2.2 and I saw on this link: https://community.pega.com/support/support-articles/links-pdf-docs-attached-ootb-pxcreatepdf-arent-working that the OOTB pxCreatePDF are not functioning with this Version.

HI Douglas,
Could you try below approach and let me know if meets your requirement,
1)On click of button add a click event with action OpenURLinWindow and call an Activity(Say Act1)
2) Add your section within a HTML rule as "<pega:include name="YouSectionName" type="Rule-HTML-Section"/>"
3) Use the HTML rule as the "StreamName" parameter while calling the activity "HTMLToPDF" in your activity(ACT1).
4) pass "<<RequiredPDFName>>.pdf" as parameter to Param.PDFName for .view activity
or
you can use pyViewAsPDF activity for your requirement.
Thanks,

Hello Balla,
I did, but it's showing a screen view with this error!
I trace the process to try to see what's going on, but I didn't find it yet.
