Producing a Form from an Overlay from Reporting Services rdlc Reports
I am not sure what you call it in other technologies, on the IBM i (or iSeries) we call it overlays. The overlay is an image of a form that is stored on the server then a program generates the form with fields from the database so you can eliminate preprinted forms.
I had a problem last year with the method I was trying at the time. It was a rush job at the time to be revisited at a later point. The work-around at the time was to export to PDF. So now it is "later" and once again is a rush (imagine that). This is all done through a web-based interface.
So how do you generate forms from something that was once a preprinted form? What method do you recommend? This is a legal form and must be filled out a certain way and can have many in a batch (up to 50 or so). I would prefer to not have them print one page at a time.
Any ideas would be appreciated!
UPDATE: I found this article which may help some. It seems to co开发者_StackOverflow社区nfirm I am doing this right.
The article I mention above got me in the right direction.
