So why should a developer be interested in this topic? Glenda Vigoreaux: I believe that converting a CF document into a PDF printable document is the most amazing and useful feature added to CFMX7. I have many clients that upgraded to CF7 when they found out they can convert their output into a PDF or FlashPaper document. My session is introductory and anyone with basic CF experience can attend. Another reason to attend is that I give away goodies in my presentations. Last year I gave away 2 free Macromedia classes from roundpeg, worth over $1000 each. MS: Wow cool! Does this new document functionality require a lot of recoding? GV: Tons of code... 2 lines - an open and close CF tag to start with. MS: Wow cool! But what about more complex situations - like repeating page headers and footers? Or sections? GV: You can control page headers and footers also, with a minimal amount of "massaging". You can also create sections, where you start a new page with a new header and footer when a value in a specific field changes. MS: You mentioned Flashpaper - why would I pick that over PDF for output? GV: Flashpaper can instantly generate Flash documents that can be accessed by over half a billion web users (just like Adobe marketing describes - superior web viewing). Do you think that most people have the Flash player plug-in loaded in their browser? PDF format is excellent for creating secure and compact files for e-mailing, archiving, and printing. MS: What about reporting? What is new there? GV: CFMX7 comes with a separate application called the ColdFusion report builder. It reminds me of Crystal Reports (not sure if that's good or bad). This tool allows you to create bands where you place labels, data, charts, and gives you finer control for your printed output. You can also generate Excel files way easier than before ColdFusion 7.
