Hi ,

Is there any way to create a pdf file from datastage environment ?For example if i want to create a PDF file ( after taking data from SQL server) through Datastage jobs, directly or indirectly .

Thanks in advance

You could do it easily indirectly, just create a sequential file and print it to a PDF document. I am sure that Adobe allows automated PDF creation, but don't know which mechanism is used.

It works just the way as Arnd wrote. Alternatives are to write it into any Database (Access, Oracle....) and use a Frontend-Tool (Word, Excel, BusinessObjects ....) which all can produce *.pdf-files. With windows Batch you can automate this.

as said by Andrw you need to take help of some third party tool.
