Get a data from a web page into a PDF format using Tomahawk in JSF?

i am a newbie to JSf and Tomahawk Technology. In applic开发者_如何转开发ation i am having a datatable, i want store the information from he data table into a PDF format on a click of a button using Tomahawk and SandBox.Kindly Help.

Even better, use JasperReports. It uses iText behind the scene to export reports to PDF.

You may need iText for this.

As you have mentioned you are using sandbox, use exporterActionListener component in the sandbox to export the data from data tabel into PDF. You need the itext-0.99.jar use the same version

Code sample

<!-- sandbox tag library declaration -->
<%@ taglib uri="http://myfaces.apache.org/sandbox" prefix="s"%>
   .
   .  <!-- your data Tabel will be here -->
   .
   .

<h:commandButton value="Export as pdf">
     <s:exporterActionListener for="Id of the Data Tabel" fileType="PDF" />
</h:commandButton>
