I have a form, I cant use print() because it long. I did play with PDF function to create a pdf... but I had to add a pdf field on the app which makes it ugly and I still cant figure out how to print the pdf.
I would like to just convert to pdf and print in 1 button. ideas?
I posted this question but powerautomate is not a good solution.
I have hourly folks on the floor going into a powerapp and pulling up data on a part on the screen, From there they need to print that screen from within that powerapp form so they can run a press.
So print() would be great if it did more than print screen and could do the entire length of the rolling screen. Most plants i use the print() and just squeeze the data on what they can see on the screen.
This is so limiting.
I need to be able to allow an hourly person on a floor to see the screen with all the comments and dimensions to run a press which is more data than can be on the screen at one time, rolls and print it.
If print() was a good tool I'd love it but unless microsoft makes the print() print the entire form it is no help.
Therefore I thought pdf. So I played with the pdf and so far all i can get it to do is put the pdf in a field
I've attached what I'm trying to do.. its a bit odd only way I could get pdf to show was setup a pdfviewer field on the form which then is in the pdf.. ugly. But cant get it to print.
I do not want powerautomate... that would be absolute last resort. These are hourly folks just needing data to show on a screen and print. Something that should not be so difficult to accomplish.
I'd love any ideas.
