I have the need to print off files along with my report. for example, printing a sales order with a PDF file of each item on the order.

i see that image files work great so the concept would be the same, but to call the PDFs file instead.

I have read that we can add custom functions so was hoping someone could share some ideas on how this would be approached.

the PDFs would ideally be within a container so we could control where within the report they would print, but I would even take it printing on a new page.

So in summary, I want to add a pdf like I would add an image, specify a field in my query that contains the path to my PDF, size the pdf container and be done.

any ideas?

Hi Brian,

PDF files cannot be embedded in Telerik Reporting reports. However, you can convert the files to images and then use the PictureBox item to include the images in the report: Convert PDF to Image.
