BBjForm::savePDF

Description

In BBj 26.0 and higher, these methods save the current BBjForm as a PDF file. They save the form content directly to a PDF document based on the form’s state at the time the method is executed.

These methods support creating either a standard PDF file or a password-protected PDF file. When security is applied, the generated PDF can include passwords that control access to the document, such as requiring a password to open the file or restricting editing permissions. This allows applications to generate PDF output from a form and optionally apply access restrictions to the resulting document. See: getBBjPDFForm
