Printing a Pivot Table

Printing a Pivot Table

To print a pivot table from the Analyzer, click the Print button . The system generates a .pdf file and opens it in your default browser. You can then use options in the browser to print the file or to download it, for printing later.

Note that if you download the file, the browser saves the file to the default download directory for that browser; there is no mechanism to specify a different location.

Also see Specifying the Print Settings.

Requirements for Printing

When a user invokes the Print option, InterSystems IRIS® data platform uses Java to call out to a third-party PDF rendering tool. The call out operation takes place using the /api/deepsee REST interface. This means that Java (or specifically JRE, Java Runtime Environment) is required on the user's machine.

This also means that you must configure security settings for your application appropriately. A user must hold the %System_CallOut:Use privilege in order to invoke the Print option. Furthermore, invoking the Print option may prompt the user to authenticate again if you have not configured the /api/deepsee web application to share a common authentication mechanism with the /csp/ web application for your namespace, which serves the Analyzer. (Similar problems may occur navigating between any two Management Portal pages which are served by different web applications.)

For information on the requirements, see Configuring InterSystems IRIS for PDF Output.
