Printing / Create printable documents

Posted by tom March 17th, 2006

Austin Ziegler wrote an article back in October 2005 on “Creating Printable Documents with Ruby”, but it’s applicable to RAILS as well. It does not state HOW you can actually send these documents to the printer, but we could assume the user is capable of pressing print. The article uses PDF and in specific PDF::Writer

Another very interesting new piece of technology is RAILS PDF Plugin. Which allows you to use ERB and create .rpdf views within your RAILS application.
