This entry describes the areas we can use LearningBuilder to render PDFs of important documents that combine a viewable template and underlying LearningBuilder data.
LearningBuilder supports generating PDFs in the following ways:
Type | Description |
|---|---|
Entity PDF | Custom formatted PDF, one or more pages, that can be accessed via a workflow quick action, emailed as a publicly sharable link. Commonly used for Activity Completion Certificates. (See PDF Templates and How to set up an Entity Template / Workflow Completion Certificate) |
Template Attribute PDF | Uses the Template Attribute to produce a custom formatted PDF. Can be shown on an entity view. Often used to display a certificate on the profile page or on the learning plan card. (See /wiki/spaces/DOCS/pages/1664385029) |
Member Search PDF | Used a custom ASPX page on the file system to create a custom formatted PDF that can be downloaded from the member search results such as a public or internal verification page. (See Credential Verification) |
Workflow Instance PDF | Complete downloadable and printable representation of a workflow, including all uploaded documents, and data from activity container attributes based on an entity view. Format cannot be customized but content can be configured. (Included in Release 10.8 Printable Workflow Summary ) |
Upload PDF | PDF representation of any document uploaded into the upload attribute for which the document type is support (ex. Word, Excel, Jpg, Gif, Png, etc.) (See Upload Attribute) |
Certificate Print PDF | Allows program administrators to construct multiple types of documents using HTML templates and to configure which documents should be mailed out in response to which business events. Additional staff manage the print queue itself, printing the physical documents, mailing them out, and then tracking their status in the system. (See Certificate Printing) |
