PDF server generation with printing module CMS 1.6

Hi Alby,

I don't know in which CMSMS forum I have to put my question, in all cases this has a link with languages.

Is it possible with printing module to generate a PDF file without downloading the page?
In other terms, I have to generate a PDF report which contains information extracted from the database. The report might be huge depending on the chosen criteria. The objective is to give the server, from the browser, the order to generate the file and then create a link to it on the submitted page to download the report.
In the negative case, may I create a UDT using TCPDF or I have to create a module for this? if yes, some hint please.
Is Arabic language supported with the printing module because in my case when I print arabic pages I have squares instead of caracters?

Cordially

JR

No, is necessary to modify that module
Maybe with a UDT for create file (but I never look to Printing module) in uploads folder
