All items within XIA Configuration Server can be written to PDF documents which can be read using Adobe Acrobat Reader, or other compatible products. The system ensures that all items are displayed in a consistent style and format, regardless of the item type. The global style can be configured in the PDF output settings and PDF color settings sections within the configuration settings by a system administrator.



There are several ways to generate a PDF document of an item.

A PDF document can also be created using the Web Services SDK. For more information see the Generating a PDF Document example within Windows PowerShell section.
